Trade Rant Thread

[Diabolic]

...okay so I was ready to accept the fact that my UR horse and B-wolf would be magnets for bad trades the minute I opened trade offers for them.

I also know that it quite clearly says under the B-wolf that I'm not stupid.

And the fact that I own a full set of toxics minus the blue, a gearback, a clear eyed and several other very rares should clue people to the fact that even though I'm fairly new, I am /not/ a moron when it comes to trades.

So why is it, that someone who actually knows the value of the B-wolf sends me the first totally ridiculous trade? Being someone who has had a UR B-wolf and auctioned it off, you should at least try and be courteous when offering on other peoples URs.

No. I will not trade my UR B-wolf for your red rose dog. Not even when your message is nothing but a smiley.

Erm...what?

Same person...I think we have a new B-5:

I'm actually able to understand those! I don't know if that's a good thing. xD They're both kinda funny. It's the "Pick one of YOUR pets I can have! O:" messages I see here that make me giggle. The second one looks like they were attempting to look timid and maybe make an impression in order to get it. Or so I observe.

Really?

I still can't understand what they're tring to say in the second one...

"Can I.... uh.... er.... Can I have this?" is probably what they were trying to say here, answrs.

Aha, that's okay. I've had lots of practice with n00b-chat-speakers. I've even had a friend who, in a lame attempt to chat-speak and sound all mean-like, called a person in her book named 'Beth', 'Beff'. O.o; Made me think of meat. XD

Mmmm....meat...

But yeah, I've been getting 2-3 trades a day for my lil' moon. I'm not trading her though. Atleast, not till she grows up...

i'd like to make a little rant:
ok, I'm kinda new. so what? no reason to treat me bad.
I've always asked extremely nicely to people that own a 2008 fox advent this exact question:
"do you trade your 2008 fox advent?"
I even do it through PM.
Many reply with, "why on earth would I trade it to you?" or "I don't trade with noobs"
others say "it's too rare!"
I honestly don't care about the rarity of that particular dog!
I'm just working for my wishlist pet, God!
The nerve of some people...

If some people don't want to trade it, then they don't have to. If it's their dog, then they get to choose whether or not they want to trade it. I agree, however, they don't say it very nicely.

i know that people are not obligated to trade it, but they can at least say it more nicely... >.>
i never trade expecting to get it accepted immediately.
i mean, im not THAT stupid!
