It's my birthday today, and I'm turning 17 ^^
Really?
I checked through your posts and you said you became 17 on August 1st.
Haha.
Yeah, I'm not that stupid, neither do I feel sympathy you liar. X3
I'm just so curious to hear an excuse from her/him.

But- I meant I'm turning 18!
Haha, but you posted that you were turning 17 in the year of 2011.
You can't have two birthday's in the same year. X3

~Nonia

lmao
that is one epic failure

I'm pretty sure that they didn't realize there was a "date posted on" button.
Not only did they lie, but they sent a fail offer. ^^
I just had a feeling they were lying. X3

Nonia- people these days try anything to trick you Dx

I sent this, which I thought was fair, if not an overpay

I get this back xXx
with this message

You give me only 4 commons, but I give you 5 pets including 3 uncommons? Doesn't sound fair AT ALL, especially since you didn't even offer a single pet from my wishlist (even though you have like all of them and in abundance..)

I picked out a lot of the ones I like, and you can maybe see if you're willing to trade some of them? I particularly love the black and red horses, but I know they are marked Rare.



um what?
I cancel with

its called dates and pet worth.
just because there is four pets on one side and five on the other, doesnt make that unfair. mine were are 2010. it was perfectly fair, if anythign I was overpaying.
I dont trade hoards or rares for a few uncommons I can get quite easy.

The only way they could have two birthdays in a single year is if they're the Queen of England. Which is... somewhat unlikely XD

It is annoying when people use the 'it's my birthday!' thing... I sometimes send out birthday gifts to people who have it in their sig and whatnot, but people who ASK for birthday gifts are just rude imo. You wouldn't walk up to a stranger in the street and go 'It's my birthday, so gimme a present!' now would you? XD

[.magpie.]

Less the trade, more the message...
"That is not fair. Just saying."
Maybe this is just a personal value thing, but cats and horses generally aren't worth as much as dogs.
If you thought I was being unreasonable, you should've cancelled instead of getting snippy.

Rant: I hate getting trades where the person's message is telling you that it is fair or overpay or something, especially when it clearly isn't >_> I'm not the best at rarities and what is in demand at the time and such but I do enough to tell an overpay trade or a scam trade when I see one and it just infuriates me whenever someone tells me whether or not the trade is fair in their message, even if they are right.

I just got a trade from another user offering a rare for one of my staff pup doubles and I was about to edit it to something fairer (since I'm one of those wierd users who prefer to let people get a pet they want without overpaying) and then I saw their trade message. They were basically yelling at me telling me that I better not cancel because it was overpay because all the staff pups become uncommon (which I already knew) :I Yeah, that makes me want to trade with you.

that happened to me before and its really anoying and just something totally random but after i read this i noticed your avatar and i just started laughing because it reminded me of this situation

Exactly. xD

Rant: So many auction offers, though I find none of them to be fair.
I just wish that someone experienced would finally take that pet off me.

Also, person who keeps sending me trades, I've canceled two of your offers, don't you dare send another. =n='

Rant: When I follow every rule and accidentally overlook half a sentence saying that rare dogs are only for rare dogs and instead of cancelling with something as polite as I was being, they only said "read my rules". I know my offer may not have been completely fair, but I knew that and said as much. This probably shouldn't bother me as much as it does, though this day has been pretty terrible so I'm probably overreacting...

totally not just posting that to bookmark

[writingrules]

I can be so stupid, sometimes I try to click cancel, but actually click accept and end up accepting trades I don't like or I like, just am not in the mood to trade. Most people understand. And I'm glad they do. Sometimes I just don't pay attention.

[northern downpour]

Grrr....
I am looking desperately around for a Sorbet, and I just recently auctioned for one. It was a fair offer (in my eyes), and I had read the entire post. I promptly got a cancel back, with the message:

please read my rules.

So, bewildered, I wandered back to their post. Sure enough, under the list of autos, was a small line that said, "You must include a Joker dog or UR bunny." Wow. In and of itself it's surprising, but there was also the fact that I had COMBED the post before I auctioned. And it had not been there. I scrolled to the bottom, and it had a little banner that said it had been edited. In this case, it had been edited minutes before the time I was reading it; and also after I had made my bid, and a moment after they had canceled it.
That made me furious. So I PMed them saying:

You could have put that before I made my offer.

They PMed me back:

yea... well, it was a little unfair to me. so too bad.

So they're saying they can edit the rules, cancel a bid (even though it's an auction and you're not supposed to to that), and be downright rude, and it's okay because they see my trade as "a little unfair to them?"
