Paperclip Is Going NOWHERE.
Why Must Grinners Have Such Low Demand...

['Possum]

I'm having a hard time trading up my paperclip. I have a purple butterfly wolf that's supposed to be an '08 rare, but it was released into the middle of '09. People don't believe me and they rate it as a mid '09. Great. I've seen these a date on one of these butterwolves that says August '08. It's there in the Archives too. Yet they all disbelieve me. WHY? (mini caps-abuse ended. I'm just getting really annoyed.)

Well, I'm afraid that the people that don't believe you, while they are mistaken in thinking the Butterfly was not originally released in Aug. of '08, they ARE correct in thinking that particular pet is only really worth around a mid '09 rare since that litter was available to every person who joined the site for nearly a full year.

They really aren't worth what an '08 released for only a single month is...

It's really frustrating to send a gift to someone, only to have them say it's not good enough.

Really?

So I think well, maybe the pets I sent just aren't what they're looking for. I see they're hoarding newborns, so I try to send them those. Once again, they cancel saying it's not good enough, and that the newborns aren't good gifts either.

....Really? You're willing to PAY to get more newborns of this month, but I can't GIVE them to you? What sense does this make?

That's rude -.- I always accept with a message like there giving me a UR Tiger and a Sunjewel, even if it's a OMG so common.

That is so rude. It's a gift, they don't deserve it, you are gifting them.
*sigh*
sometimes I wish I wasn't human.

I always accept as if they're giving me a UR Tiger as well. I'm so sorry this happened to you, people can be so mean sometimes!

I have a few pets on the advent list. I got them fairly easily because they had no demand.
Now I can't trade them off because they have no demand. Even when I'm overpaying no one will take them.

Curse you, demand! You make everything so difficult! Why can't everybody like different things?

Like my warrior cats. People rate them as a 09 rare.

Rant: Poor ratties, why don't you have any demand :C
This rat has been in my paperclip group for 3 months T.T
Time to give it a home in my favourite rats group...

I realize that, but it's still quite annoying looking at the archives. I feel like I'm getting teased. -.-
EDIT: COPPAs really are amazing. One just traded me a bw from the same litter, but October '08

Why do bunnies have no demand? or rats? it is really sad...

I would be happy if I have them, but I cannot afford them
