I am starting to hate trying to trade,
It is getting way too annoying to deal with people...
or maybe I am just a jerkface
Meh, who knows

I really don't get it. I know people have had this conversation many times already, but how do new members (COPPAd members at that) have dozens of high-demand list pets? Did they "trade fairly for it"? How would a bunch of '13 very commons pay for like ten '08 September List pets? I know that some of them are gifted, but what about the rest of them? Was there some secret newbie network that I missed out on where you get gifted incredible pets? Because I know that I sure wasn't ever a part of it ;-;
I cannot even trade onto the bottom tier of the Advent List. The only four list pets I have (three of which are low, no-demand advents) were won in giveaways that I had to spend days on, and I can't trade them up or down because I kept them for myself D:

People who let my trades rot. Either cancel it or accept or even edit, something to let me know you even care! I know you've been on the site since I sent this to you.

It would just make it easier to know what pets I still need to get and what trading fodder I still have for sure.

When a user sends you 10 commons from 2012 for a rare from 2009. -_-

[northern downpour ;;]

I saw this coming. I've slammed all my trades shut except to friends. No more trades for me! *celebrates*

[frytard]

*cries* Theres a trade that doesn't have pets I want and isn't really fair, but I sent it and asked them to edit .-. twice. I tried editing but they don't have pets I want

Suggestion with no message: *Click*

I resend the suggesting asking

What are you wanting me to do?

They resend the same trade

If this isn't fair to you, then change it into a trade that you would accept.
That's what a suggestion is.

I cancel

I understand what a suggestion is, but when you send one without a message it's hard to tell what you'd like me to do. I thought it was obvious that this trade is highly unfair to me, so I didn't know if you wanted me to add pets since this was the only Wish List pet of mine you had or not. In any case, I didn't see anything of yours that I'd like for mine. Good luck, though, I hope you obtain this pet soon. =]

Of course I know what a suggestion is. It's hard to be nice and not say "Well, a message is something you put in the box to explain what you'd like in a suggestion."

Blahhh hahaha

So, I send this trade to a user with their codeword and the message "hi would you like to trade?" or something along the lines of that. Maybe a little unfair to them, but still. Literally 5 seconds after I sent the trade it was cancelled. With no message. -_- .

So I sent this trade with this message:

Would this be okay? I am unsure how many C$ this pet would be, and I apologize if it's unfair.

This was a user who had a trade thread about selling and buying pets for C$, so I knew that they would've at least wanted them and they said nothing about not offering on rares that were for trade. I thought they'd at least cancel if it was unfair with a message telling me how much the pet was actually worth, or at least edit it to a fair trade, but no, instead they cancel without a message and no saying what was wrong or anything. =.= So, yeah, that kind of bothered me.
