And look where getting to the point actually got you, nowhere.
Fake or not, sincerity & humility when you are requesting something for your own personal use, and especially when nothing is being given or expected in return, means you have to put some effort into acquiring your requirements. Just turning up and being blunt and open about certain places is not the right way, for sure it can be to most places, but some places require that bit of ingenuity and thought process being put into the request, especially where invites are actually tightly controlled, you need to be more creative than any other person requesting.
Of course this is just advice, take it or leave it, the choice is always yours.
