No offense Lorgos, but I think Luap intentionally left that option off his list. From my experiences with several townless adventurers and any account on a newly opened world, I respond much more favorably to a telegram than a random invite. I actually do still send a telegram politely turning down random invites, but that's me, I'm too nice. They get old.
