Haha kind of random question.
I have gerbils who leave "presents" all over the place.

No, but I let my llama poop all over me because it's a good way to exfoliate my skin.

Yes! I think they all do that though. My gerbil poops on me too, and so does my mouse, but not as much as my gerbil. Its really kind of gross, but there is probably not much I can do about it.

My 2 male syrians don't, but my 2 female robos do it all the time. =))
It could be that they may be scared or just need to go. If you want this to stop, blow their face when they poop on you and say, "No." in a firm voice. After some time, they may stop.

I have a hamster and I try to schedule his time out when he will not have to "go." I've noticed he has a pattern of behavior. He will wake up, come out of the igloo, head to his bathroom corner and "go" there. Then he drinks some water and checks out the food dish. I give him time to do all of this before taking him out. Then I rarely have to do clean-up. Of course, it is not 100%, but close.

My rats all learn pretty quickly that pooping outside of the cage gets them put back in the cage. Holding it in gets them a treat and right back out of the cage.

My 2 female rats do not do this. They actually 'hold it' until they get back to their cage/carrier (or onto a paper towel, which is acceptable).
My male rat only does it if he's nervous (he prefers to be in hiding, he's not a very social guy).

Yes, I find large amounts of rodent dropping all over me all the time, problem is I don't own any rodents as pets.

Yep, gerbils do that. My rats, however, rarely pooped outside their cage.

my guinea pigs pee on me - but most of the time if they're sitting on my belly they'll reach down to their a$$ and eat it before it comes out because there is no hay around.
But they are like **** factories all rodents are

Yes, it does. Rodents mostly do it if they are scared or you handle them ruffly, if you handle them softly then the chances of this drops a lot.
