Option to Turn Off Receiving a Share

It would be nice to be able to toggle shar receipt off when you don't want to receive one. Just like you can with trade. I have had to wipe my friends list of random people since I can't communicate I don't want a share.

Or, better, disallow share except from certain friends.

    I agree... it would be appreciated indeed... several times I've received annoying cards from the share feature.

    I don't believe friends do it on purpose, but it can be annoying sometimes… the option to restrict which friends can share would be great indeed.

    What about if they added a message that you can turn on and choose that gives options and says something like:

    • Thank you for the thought, however I do not wish to receive any shared cards at this time. (And it would disable sharing to you)
    • Please only share unregistered cards with me.
    • I would only like wishlisted cards to be shared with me.
    • Please only share wishlisted or my unregistered cards with me.
    • I thankfully accept all shared cards including ones I already have registered.

    They've done something similar for trades.... So why not shares too?

    Sure, that would work too… in the end it's the same goal, but with better and more refined options.

    That works too but also maybe more friction to get in the game on the first go. But yeah either works. I would rather a simple approach first if that means it becomes an implemented feature.

    Not on purpose no but I also can't message them asking them not to do it so if I don't know them I left with little recourse right now.
