Trade Rant Thread [NEW!]

I hate that practically no one helps with paperclips.... -.-

I know,right? I was trying to get an early 2009 rare,and I ended up with a mid-'10 uncommon. I gave up on it because no one would help with my paperclip. I may try to start another one,but I doubt I'll get far.

Really? People help me with paperclips a lot. Well when I was doing a rares list paperclip I was gifted a noncoon to help with it so I dunno. Sometimes I think it depends on the pet you have too.

PEOPLE
STOP CANCELLING MY TRADES WITHOUT ANY MESSAGE.It's mean.

Personally I don't find it mean or rude at all.
I tend to not leave messages if:
They didn't send a message with the trade.
It was a bad trade.
I'm tired and simply don't feel like writing out some explanation as to why I cancelled.
I'm upset or in a bad mood and I don't want to snap at someone who has done nothing wrong.
A lot of the time not leaving a message is politer and the better option than leaving one.
(just my personal opinion)

It's perfectly fair- but I say at the top of my trade rules that I'm currently only trading for items. There is the stipulation about a super-awesome pet trade being exempt from that......but I don't think that really counts.

I'm somewhat interested in actually starting a counter to see how many people obviously do not read/do not care about trade rules- may start first thing tomorrow morning, and keep tabs for a week. Not with usernames or anything, but just......a check in whichever column fits best.

But I'm sure the results will be depressing.

My current paperclips are stalled on a bunny and a fish. Even after downgrading one of them. But it's okay. I will either succeed eventually or gift them away like all my other paperclip attempts.

Wow, barely anyone's sent me a trade to help with my paperclips, and the group is marked "Paperclip Attempts". You got gifted a noncoon? I've been gifted 2 '09 Rares (thank ye Fat Unicorn), but that's the best I've gotten. I'm sad naow.

Nah<3
Not your fault, I was stupid- I kinda thought auctioning the BA would help me with my lack of fodder and long wishlist.

I'll just learn from my mistakes. XD

On topic...

Apparently two squids isn't a fair swap for two Black PPS Labs. o - o

Despite them being in a trade group,
and I offered from their wishlist- somehow I hope these labs aren't being overvalued like the Lynx.

I already have trouble getting Lynx PPSes.. I don't need more trouble with the Black PPS Lab.
