Trade rant thread

[JadeiteWren]

actually, that's kind of mean. Your rue confused me, how do you know they though you'd said the opposite?
And isn't it rude to make a rule like that just to laugh when someone makes a mistake? :/

I agree. It really seems like you're asking for an excuse to cancel and rant.

And thank you, Lady. The constant slinging of the word "noob" is annoying.

Now that seems a bit more rude to me then saying, "wow I can't believe they really just scanned for a codeword" which is clearly what happened in this trade.

Nowadays you have to scan for the codeword because going around in circles and playing mind games in trade rules just to trade for one missed outcome seems to be a common trend.

Also, rules lately seen to be walls of text. I broke my rules from like 9 rules to 3. I'm getting lots of blank trades now because of it but I just skim there pets and ussually move on. xP

I'm not even going to try to argue with your 'proof' logic >.>

the rule is confusing, I had to read it three times to figure out what they did wrong. Purposely trying to confuse/trick someone is rude

I can understand having hard trade rules because I used to have them, but they will only cause more headaches than anything... Believe me. >,<

People aren't going to read if they don't want, hence why I have my groups locked. Sure, I still get the occasional "OMG CAN I HAZ YOUR SUNDOG?!!!" but it's a very rare occurrence since they can't just up and send me a trade with their newborns.

Yes I am thinking of doing that...looking the group that says NOT FOR TRADE

Actually - it was me who sent the trade. And I did read the rules, and I'll admit I didn't read them properly, merely scanned them. I resent the trade and admitted that on my next attempt. Australia09 still cancelled - because he didn't like my offer, which is fair enough.
It's nearly 5am here - give me a break.
That said, the whole codewords thing does get pretty silly doesn't it? If you don't like the trade you're free to cancel it, so putting codewords in makes no difference one way or the other.

I didn't do it before now and my rules are acctualy quiet simple, maybe i will remove it.

Honestly your rules are REALLY not that confusing.

i think her rules are a little to long for my tastes... I looked at them and just turned around with out reading them.

just because it isn't confusing to you doesn't mean others will always understand
