The normal trades I don't think changed much, but the COPPA's now having messages is a major improvement. It still protects them, but lets them communicate. Great idea! :thumbup:

I am on mobile most of the time, so having the smaller boxes on the old interface was sometimes a challenge. Adding the option to cancel within an edit is a good idea too. Before, on mobile, I would have to go back to viewing the trade and sometimes that was a hassle. I think everything is great so far.


I don't think that the smaller boxes was a challenge on mobiles (I'm on my blackberry, galaxy tab and iPod most of the time) but I do agree with you about that canceling on mobile thing. I do fear that the small circles will be a blockade to a "smooth" mobile trading though. I will test it out on mobile this night to see..

A COPPA traded me and in case you are curious, here's how the message looks like

Incase if this is spam, please remove it c:

And there's a new message notifier when someone sends you a suggestion:Image

instead of

-insert username here- has sent you a trade suggestion!

Great news for the COPPA messages :)

Not sure how I feel about the radio buttons. I hope they don't confuse non-English speakers, then again I never really thought about how the old options might either. I kind of wish the accept one was green and the suggest one yellow so there's a more visual reference of which you have picked, maybe just around the radio buttons themselves rather than the labels? Idk.

Yeah, maybe they could be made a bit more visual, so it is easier for the people who don't have such good sight to identify and click the right button. But otherwise, it's a pretty good improvement.

Little confusing, the new edit trade screen lol It will take a bit to get used to. And now i'll have to go re-do all the rules set to my inbox so that the trade suggestions also go into the right folder - pff such work -

Kinda agree with solloby, i can see how it's confusing uVu

Hopefully the coppa'd lines will help them with trading!

    This is great news, it will be alot easier to trade. It's also great that COPPA members can now send messages. My friend is a COPPA member and before, she could not ask if she wanted a particular pet, if she wanted the trade to be edited or even thank someone for a trade. This should help alot of people. Great job! :thumbup:

    I also agree with Solloby. Although the change is for the better, I think there should be more visual reference.

Thank you so much for the COPPA message bank! I have a feeling that this will make the whole experience a lot more streamlined for everyone :)

Great idea for COPPAs! I don't need to make a communication group now! ^.^ But the edit screen is a bit confusing if you just glance it over. The color thing sounds good to me too. But I like it still. :)
Please, if you want to talk about anything at all, my PM box is open to anyone and everyone! Feel free to reach out at any time, and I'll get back as soon as possible. I'll keep what you say a secret, if you want. It's my immense pleasure to help as many people as possible!

Thrilled for Coppas and the new lines! I hope it eases trading for them!

The new trading system will take some time to get used to...but soon we'll hardly notice the difference I am sure.

Edit: Don't care for the mobile. The buttons were already difficult the old way-and now they are even tinier.

I feel like I'm missing something. ^^; What are the radio buttons? Is that part of the thing for the COPPA users? I tried looking around the new trade system and I didn't see anything like that, although I tend to miss things right in front of my face.
