Trading has definetely gotten harder. I had to go through and cancel a bunch of trades that were unfair since the change occured. Some of them were once awesome and overpay and then because of the change, became underpay and stuff.

But it's also a lot better; now you know that those offers were actually underpay, so the rarity system change saved you from accepting the underpay ;D

And also, back when everything was uncommon... you see the last litter on this page? (tan, blue, green, and gray dogs)
They all used to be uncommon. I was missing the gray dog, so I was looking around... and I thought that the tan dog would be a fair swap since they both said "uncommon". But I found that very few people had the gray dog, and even fewer were willing to trade it for a tan dog.
Now I know why. :lol: I would hug the new rarity system if I could, but I have no clue as to how to hug a system, so... XD
Spread the word to end the word, because discrimination based on perceived or actual IQ/"intelligence" is no better than discrimination based on race, gender, etc.

Context, consistency, and clear antecedents are golden.
I neither read nor speak between the lines. But I will analyze your language.

I was thinking about it and really, the bars are making a big difference with newbies too. They seem to realize what it all means more. And PLUS they make it more colorful and are really helpful! Thanks Tess and Nick for the new rarity stuff.

I used to not like it because my pets turned uncommon from rare or very rare to rare but it's okay now, because some of my other uncommons got turned into rares. The bars were distracting at first, but now I've gotten used to them and it's a lot easier than reading the small print rarity. I know by the color now how rare the pets are. Thanks!
I am quitting CS, and will be giving all my pets to Wassabian. Please do not ban her.

It's a proven fact that colors make people remember and think better.
