Trade Rant Thread [v. 21]

When someone sends you a trade with no message while you're offline, and cancels it 10 minutes after they sent it with no message.

You know, there's this thing called a life. We all have it, yet some of us apparently don't realize it exists. >.>

I've seen one rerelease pink cookie advent. Just one.

that person doesn't want to trade.


I think I should give up now. >_>

Note I am not angry at all with the one person, it's entirely within their rights and they were very nice. <3

When people put in your codeword and don't read your rules...

Hence why code words are useless.

Person sent this trade (ready to accept): http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... bJk6drM8xg

they said 'hi, what do you want for this?'

I replied with 'nice try.'

edit; they sent the same trade again, ready to accept, AGAIN. They even said:

No, I didn't want them for free, I wanted you to pick what you wanted from my side. For example, if you wanted one of my pets and said, "What would you like for this pet?" I would pick a pet off of your side. Get it? don't worry, I don't ask for things for free. That is not the kindest thing to do.

ahahahah...

I replied with: '...I know how it works, but you're sending it as a full trade, NOT a suggestion, thinking I'll press accept by accident. No.

Seriously, I'm not stupid.'

Same thing happened to me once.
Newbie sent ready accept for 10 rare pets but said:
'I'm not asking for this for free but what would you like?'.

God, it's rich how they have the gall to do it AGAIN.

If they do it a third time, I'll just cancel.

I personally don't see an issue with this; there IS an edit button on ready to accept trades as well, and if they ask what you would like for the pets they've added, I'm not one to assume theyre trying to pull a fast one right off the bat. That's a poor mindset to have towards newbies, in my opinion. ^.^
I myself didn't use suggestions at all when I started out trading, as I didn't realize how important their function was.

[ignite444]

A newbie sent me a trade "suggestion" for a Cheshire with this: "what do you want for this i will trade anything feel free to edit"

O.o

I'm like OK... They are brand spankin' new to the site, but they had 6 of my WL pets... I added a store pet from earlier this year telling them they could edit. They accepted.

Now I feel bad for some reason. ._.

[lana del rey]

they didi ti again with the basis of 'you rules didn't say to send a suggestion!'

.../sigh. I just can't really stand this sort of mindset from ANYONE.
