I'm 12, and I've had a lot of people trade with me that stereotype me for my age rather than how I truly do act. I get trades from people who think just because I'm a 12-year-old, they can scam me and get rare pets. That's when you can tell the difference between newbies and people trying to act like them. I cannot begin to list how many trades I receive saying things like "Hey! You know, this pet is really rare. The system says it's rare, but ______________." in chatspeak (I for one don't like to type chatspeak), and I know that the users agred 16 and older don't receive that much nonsense on an hourly basis.
Hopefully that's all I have to say about bad trades today. ._.
Hey, we're both 12! The same thing happens for me. x__x /offtopic
I got a trade asking for most of my rares. Their message? "Please reserve these for me." The trade was cancelled because I traded one of the pets away, but they recently sent me another, asking for more of my rares. Their message? "I'm not a beg" .. what's a beg?
Lol, I'm 11. But it is quite annoying when that happens. Especially in trades. I'm not totally against chat speak, like lol, btw Etc... But I just hate it when people overuse them. Like, in trades some people do this: "can u plz trde me dis pet? i relly lyke it." As for messages like, "Hey! You know, this pet is really rare. The system says it's rare, but ______________." I haven't gotten them yet which is quite lucky.
As for bad trades, I've just gotten ones where people beg for pets without giving something in return.
