Lol. I think someone sent me this trade trying to scam me because their rat, "turns into an 08 VR!"
...and then canceled saying, "oops, never mind, sorry! " because they realized I'm not an idiot.

I hate when I get messages like this:

Plz gve me tht bw ive been lking 4 it 4 awle and i cnt fnd it anywhre i was hping u cld gve it 2 me 4 free

ENGLISH: Please, give me that butterfly wolf, I've been looking for it for awhile and I can't find it anywhere, I was hoping you could give it too me for free.

3 things wrong with that.
1. Text Talk
2. Begging
3. I'm not gonna give you stuff for free just because you want it badly and you can't find it anywhere.

codewords. Thats it. Codewords.

I'm amazed that you could read that; I certainly could not!

Rant: when you send someone a trade that you would consider fair, even if the pets were lower priority, and someone still cancels it because it's "unfair"

codewords. Thats it. Codewords.

And never forget....

The codeword is, "Batman dances."
No, it's not the codeword. This is the REAL codeword. Codeword for real: Cheese puffs
Joking, again. This is the real codeword: Ketchup

Someody's trade rules read:

I don't read your rules, so I don't think you need to read any.

Gee, thanks for the honesty.

Heh, thanks...I don't know how, but I have ALWAYS been able to read text talk..
The most text talk I ever used was, "r" "u" "2" "4" "g2g" "lol (which I still use to this day)"

And yes, I agree to your rant.

Okay...

I got a trade (an open ended one, not a suggestion) with the message: "edith new pets". They offered me a newzealand flag item. If they had really read my rules, they probably would have put the trade as a suggestion and asked me to edit politely. I didn't understand what they wanted to tell me, and since it was an open-ended trade wanting no pets I just accepted, explaining why I did.

I'm not sure what other peoples' views on this are, but they practically demanded I edit, and I didn't know what they meant by "new pets". I know that they want new pets but they aren't for trade to strangers on CS - they're in a group where only my friends can offer on them.
