No. Just... No.

On the note of that Red Rose;

My best friend fell in love with her, but didn't ask me for her.
I really want to gift her the Rose.
But that leaves me with absolutely no trade fodder, and nothing to trade for my Timber Wolf.
I don't know what to do. </3

What's with all the hoard hate I've been seeing lately? I mean, I've been seeing in a bunch of peoples rules now that they don't trade pets for hoards, and I've been forced to hit the back button if that's the only thing they have on my wishlist. I might be able to see someone's point if someone was hoarding, maybe, UR tigers or something, but even then. If they can afford to hoard them, work hard to get them, and pay fairly for them, why not? So what if there are less of that particular pet in circulation, that should just be more of an incenitive for you to get your dream pet or whatever it is that pet is to you. Espicially when some people, like me, simply decide to hoard a monthly outcome they liked and people don't trade for hoards because they say "that could be someone's dream pet." Or "that's not fair to other people trying to get that pet." Heck, if someones dream pet is a '12 uncommon that I hoard, I'd be more than happy to simply gift them one. And life isn't fair, get over it, but maybe I just don't understand what's so bad about them. -shrug-

Agreed. It is really irritating. I usually only ask for one hoard then, even if they have three. If they are so against hoarding they can check my rules ('edit' the trade) or check my groups and see if I hoard it. Sure it is a bit underhanded, but if they cancel no harm no foul.

I agree with both of you. I hoard pets that I like. Not just a certain one though. So what would they say about that? I have to many "hoards"? I labeled the folder hoard because its all the ones I like and would like to have quite a few of. I also trade them away if I see someone wants them or is a dreamie. They don't want to trade because its a hoard pet, then I'll find it from someone else. Simple. lol

As you wander through the trading center you see lots of pets, ponys, dogs, cats, you name it, this place had all of them. You suddenly jump as a PPS dog wandered over to you "Hi, my names hope" It barked in english "Incase you dont know all PPS pets are NOT for trade, but Im sorry, its true, but USERNAME might trade you doubles of PPS" it added, it suddenly wandered away to what seemed like its double only not PPS. As soon as it left another pet came- it seemed to be a cat, but the muscles were DEFINETLY stronger. just like that it began talking like Hope "hello, my name is Brambletalon, warrior of Duskclan and Fursona of USERNAME" it mewed - once again in english "all cats are not accepted for trade unless its in kittypets and is a double" it added before padding away to what seemed like a clan. You start walking, dazed from listening to the pets talking in perfect english. As soon as you think your ready to trade a fox trots to you. This time instead of speaking it slowly closed it eyes and you heard something talking in your mind but noone in ear contact was talking, you suddenly realise that its because the fox is using telephathy.
"My name is Swifty, please accept this book as a present for visting this trade center" it murmered before dropping a delicate book infront of you and trotting away to a small space. You slowly take the book and start reading. -insert their ridiculous rules here- as you finnish the book you tuck it under your arms and head to the trading seats, as you sit you place your book in a small basket which seemed to magically have your name, it said items of player (your username). You smile warmly and start to trade.

Because people are actually going to read that, huh.
I honestly don't understand why people make trade rules like this.
