Trade Rant Thread

[Rainbow Dash]

Please tell me I'm not the only one who wants to rail against something when you get a blank trade with "edit" as the message.

It drives me bonkers because they usually don't have a trade group and get all huffy when you ask for something of equal value and they got "WELL YOU CAN'T HAVE THAT ONE ITS MY FAVORITE" like you're supposed to read their mind.

I once got a tarde with my august o8,joker dog and galexy bunny and alot more and they said int he emssgae "I new I need them for twee)

[ika;]

What is the matter with people!?!

I just got two absolutely ridiculous trades:

They wanted: My halloween fire horse
They gave: A common horse
Message: Is this Ok?

They wanted: My halloween fire horse
They gave: A Nick Horse
Message: I want to trad

They could at least SPELL properly!!!

ok, I just added somebody to my foes list want to know why?

First they sent me a trade asking for my July 08 Sun dog for 2 newborn puppies. THE SUN DOG IS IN A LOCKED GROUP THOUGH!!!

Ugh, but they are new, and I thought I'd give them the benefit of the doubt. Of course, there is no freaking way I would accept that trade (or ever trade that dog anyways for anything) so I removed her and left my side blank with this comment:
"no I am sorry but that dog is very rare and worth MUCH more than newborns. She is also not for trade ever. But if you would like, I am collecting newborns and would give you some common pets from my trades for these two"

They (and I have no idea how) edited it again to include my precious July 08 Sun from my locked group and said
: PLEASE! I really want her!

I edited her out and exlained again. Rinse and repeat she did this 5 times!

She is now a FOE. and I am very annoyed.

If they manually enter the pets number, trade settings don't matter.

I always double-check which groups my pets are in before accepting.

Is that really possible?!

Man if newbies knew that >< There should be some way to totally disable trade offers then...

[T. Faulkner]

Frag, she's right. o____o; I just tried it with that same Sunback of Drucilla's- didn't actually send the trade, of course, just entered in the number- and it works, just as if the pet wasn't in a locked group.

So that's how that one idiot added my two Pound Pets from my locked group to a trade...

Is there any way to fix that? To make the pet itself locked, so that people can't send trades on it no matter what? I realize there isn't now, but how hard do you think it would be for the mod's to rig one?

I hate when newbies DON'T have trading groups, because you pick a common or something and their like "NO! HAVE THIS!" and then they want a rare pet and give you a very common one >.<

I just got three trades from the same person, all asking for high-value pets and offering things like caterpillars from this month and newborns from this month as well.
The worst one is this: my Drink Me dog and an advent offering two current second gens and a ferret newborn, with this message: "please can i have this pet. cancel not -edit thanks"
Annoying how they think that ordering me not to cancel will get them anywhere.

If I was you, I would send a message back with, "cancel yes - not edit. Thanks"
