Trade Rant Thread [v. 18]

Person. I will never put your 'codeword' in, I will never trade with you, NOTHING.

I will not bow myself to a codeword. That's disgusting.

I have officially gone back to having trade rules after not needing them for over a month.
Well, one trade rule anyway.
"No chatspeak."
Seriously, are people just completely lazy? I don't require a message, yet they continue to make my eye twitch every single time their message has chatspeak in it.
Use your brain. Write out simple three letter words fully. Gods.

I have a problem with chatspeak, I understand if you can't type that well, but it's not that hard to spell please rather than plz.

If someone doesn't speak English, or they struggle with it-- that's understandable.
What's not forgivable is when people use chatspeak in a message when I don't even require one.
Either type properly or say nothing at all.

Yes, that's understandable too. Messages are ok, nice to have for me, but I prefer proper English over C0u1d w3 7r4d3?

And anyway, I'm quitting so I don't care anymore.

That doesn't give you the right to spam.

Rant:

Really?!
What part of "I only trade for wishlist pets" do people not get?

its easy to tell when someone doesnt speak english or they are learning it. but chat speak isnt not knowing english, because you have to know english to understand and write chatspeak from what I have seen.
someone who doesnt know english isnt going to know the meaning of plz, with a translator or their knowledge of english. because its not a real word.
I hate chatspeak. I can deal with the basics. like "u" "r" "plz" etcbut when its overly used, I have issues. like "plz accept dis trde b/c dis iz a fare trde"
like thats just.. overly chatspeaking.

Apparently, the wishlist part.
I get this all the time. People put ONE wishlist pet up to get past my WL lock...the lock is there for a reason!
