Trade Rant Thread [NEW]

[Samurai!]

Just a preference. Like, you usually talk to the person at the register, even briefly, before you buy something at the store, even if it's just a 'hi have a nice day', you know? I feel like its courteous. And I kinda like to know what they want if it's a suggestion. No message makes me feel kinda ignored and frankly if they don't wanna send me a message they don't have to trade with me... It's just irritating. /end rant/

Suggestions I understand, but if it's, like, a monthly swap? If I'm at the counter in WalMart with a tube of toothpaste and the exact change in my hand, I'm not going to say much of anything. Hand the cashier the toothpaste, hand them the cash, take back the toothpaste, toodles.

Why is no one interested in giving up that rare '09 White Feb dog?
I don't see anyone who has them and I can't find good traders to trade with.
Even if I overpay. Why? ;___;

I cannot stand people who scam newbies just because the newbies don't know any better. I just traded for a Vixen advent that was scammed off my friend, to get it back for her since she didn't know any better.
I've seen users with quite impressive groups of pets, but when I looked at the people who traded them to the users... they're almost all newbies. I'm not saying newbies are dumb, I'm not saying that at all, nor am I saying that newbies cannot know their rarities, it's just that many are too unfamiliar to the site to know, and it's horrible to take advantage of them like that. What a great way to be welcomed to this site, eh? -_-

Agreed. I saw this person post on the GTT about a trade with a newbie... I was all like O.o

Scam someone and then flaunt it?

Thats like kicking them while their down, or rubbing salt in a papercut. :(

User PMs me: "Hey, can I have a free pet through trades?"

me: "Nope."

Them: "Why? Because it's against your rules?"

me: "Yep."

Them: "PLEASE?"

me:"TOASTER WAFFLE."

No reply. :'D

Anyways...

Someone sent a trade offering on one of my rare dogs with an unknown from this month. Why?! ;-;

I am totally using that! LOL. ^^

CS user PMs me: "Hi! It's my birthday! So your gonna give me some of your pets from your NFT groups in a trade! *a billion smiles are used here* THANK YOU FOR THE B-DAY PRESENTS!"

Them: "THATS NOT A PRESENT, I AM FOEING YOU."

I dunno about you guys, but I always feel really guilty cancelling really good trades with polite messages just because I really don't want the pets they're offering. :c It makes me feel like a bad person every time. |D

To repent for such guilt, I usually offer to help them find more of said pet(s) up for trade elsewhere.
