Save trade drafts? Poll added

Postby useless witch » Sat Jan 08, 2022 11:44 am

This is mostly for huge bulk trades

But what if we could save a trade we are working on that has hundreds of pets?

I currently am bidding on a pet that's being auctioned for bulk and I'm at 584 pets.

And I got to thinking that it would be cool if we could add while we felt like it and put it down for a while and get back to it without losing progress.

Feel free to lock this and steal my cookies if it's already been suggested xD

Edit: poll added.
I still prefer people to discuss but you don't have to.

Always "handy" is you add a Poll when you start a Sugg Thread, like that we can quickly vote without being "obliged" to post... :idea:

But, yep, Support: => +1.

I don't send such "huge bulk Trades" myself, but I send "fairly large Trades" also, and I see another Usecase for your Sugg: :idea:

When I send a Trade myself to some other Player, I try to send a "Quality Trade"..., => I read their Trade Rules (at least the parts that are not in ]size=85[ or smaller, or Yellow/Grey/Pink/Green on a Green Background, ah-ah...! :roll: ), and I check several Pages of both WL's (often 10-20 Pages or more) to include "quite a few" Pets, same with Items also maybe, to try to make the Trade "Interesting" for both Sides... 8-)

And I write a "personal" Msg, not just "Trade?"..., if Items are involved, I mention that I've been "careful" to select only Items they have x2 or more, if the Items are "a bit older", I also mention from which Year(s)/Event(s), etc..., and for the Pets, depending on the "Experience" of the other Player, I sometimes also explain a bit "the Maths" for the Trade, etc..., but I often spend 30 Min or more on a Trade... :o

But then, when I am ready to send the Trade, and I "finally" click on the "Send trade" Button, ... I regularly get the "One of the Pets has been moved and is no longer available" Error Msg, and the Trade gets auto-cancelled, with no way to get back to the Trade to try to edit it to remove the "offending" Pet(s) that is/are not available anymore... :(

And I think at that moment, "Oh...! :o :what: , grrr...! :shock: , arrrggghhhh...! :twisted: , grrrr....!!! :what: ", and I usually just give up, as I don't want to go and spend another 1/2h going through the same 10-20 WL Pages again to try to reconstruct the Trade... :(

=> Would be nice if Trades could be automatically or manually saved as Draft, maybe when we get the Prompt about the Trade being cancelled, with an extra Option like: "Do you want to save a Draft Version of this Trade if you want to edit it?" :idea:

Reason of no poll: to discuss.

I would like for this to be discussed, not for yes or no

I'm sorry this is uncomfortable for you.

Support. And going off of CaptainSpank's points, it would be lovely if we could get a save feature because of the autodenying because the pet had been moved/deleted/whatever else may have happened & the feeling of time wasting. This would be super useful for people who do the storepet = 100 random pets thing. Just pick a different store if that one got taken, no need to put the 100 pets back in.
