When rarities come in and bite you in the.... you get the point.
I'm half peeved half happy. I think I fell into the overpay trap for the Jester PPS :? :| Made someone happy that didn't get to catch all of the Easter Event.

Actual rants~
Reading trade rules that say "All groups open, choose from any group you like." Spend around 20mins to a half hour choosing pets and making sure things are fair and give my detailed polite message, Get a cancel with "Sorry don't want to trade them."

Choose pets from persons trade group, spend time making sure all is fair and leave detailed message, Get a cancel with "Sorry I'm waiting to see if they go rare." Then person why the heck are they in your 'trade' group.

Read a persons trade rules, they say they won't let a trade sit more than a week if they are thinking about it, I wait anxiously, 5 -6 days later, Cancel with "No thanks." That would have been nice to know 3 or so days before.

Oh and the charmers When was Auctioning off 200C$ I had at the time:

I seriously only had 200C$ if they were trying to trip me up and think I might not notice the extra 0 :| :/
http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... SVgnFKBcDw
Yeah uh no.
Of all the Auctions I've held, the 200 C$ one was the most stressful.

First being told my art isn't quality enough for the pet offered when person wants art done urgently as in 3 pieces within 4 days. Be my generous self and help them out anyway, drop other things I'm doing and get the 3 pieces done, that's one piece a day pretty much, I look through persons pets to choose payment as they say they have VRs and Rs (didn't have all that many), Choose a couple of VR's a Rare and Uncommon, person could choose which they wanted to pay, they went with the Rare and Uncommon... Later, rarity changes the Rare turned into an Uncommon *face palm* Doh! :thumbdown:


Ok long rant but those have been over a good few months. So kinda let off steam all at once.

When someone rants about you declining their fair trade.

Screams out loud: BUT I DON'T HAVE TO ACCEPT EVERY FAIR TRADE. ;~;

Sent this:http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/viewtrade.php?id=36069638&userid=266865&signature=TYFb3iCFr_CYE7xsW7dhjg
Got it back as a suggestion saying:
I'm not really sure, I paid about the equivelent of about a Skeleton PPS on the list.

Seriously though...What do you want me to do? Overpay more because of how much you paid? I obviously can't, so why send it back as a suggestion? Why not cancel? *sigh* I don't even know how to respond to that.
(Silently asks for help >.<)

~Edit~ well. I just found out they arent even interested in my trade at all. They seem to be more interested in the other offers they are getting for the raven dog. That still doesnt explain why they sent it back as a suggestion.

Getting anything off of my wishlist is going to be so hard.
I'd like to stop with a liontail or a raven dog,
but nobody wants my stupid sock dog.
Sigh sigh. ;A;

So here I am and I'm dying
And I'm waiting for you, waiting for you
Come back, come back to me
And I'll take you gladly, well, I'll take you any time
Did you scream enough to make her cry
To turn around, turn around?
Baby, don't return to me
If you think that I'm not worth your time

I always thought I might be bad
now I'm sure that it's true
cause I think you're so good
and I'm nothing like you.
Look at you go
I just adore you
I wish that I knew
What makes you think
I'm so special?

Its cool I mean its not like I literally have 21 trades waiting to be accepted in my trade center. Oh wait I do! -.- And only like 3 or 4 are bids for auctions the rest are actual trades that people want to let rot. 21 seem like such a small number but its so frustrating because yesterday there was only 1 rare 2010 donkey that wasn't in a trade in my rare group! so guess who is probably going to have to cancel trades and make people angry if they ever want to trade again! this person. _._ Why must trades rot?

*click*
This is how I feel about trades right now. Seriously, people? I mean, come ON! If you're going to send a trade, make sure that it's something you would accept. Sometimes I think people just send massively unfair trades to see if I would accidentally hit the accept button. Ugh.
*wipes faith in humanity on TRT*

Can you at least leave a message telling me why you cancelled?
I mean, I left a very sweet message ;n;

So this is basically what my past trades look like.
I've removed all names etc on the image.

Annoyed with how many cancelled trades there are, half of which I had to cancel
as it's already been a week since I've heard anything back from them.
All were waiting for them to accept too. And those that cancel their own, don't even have a message.

Sigh. I just. Why did I spend so much time redoing my rules,
sending trades and being really nice in all of them, for them to rot of be cancelled?

At least I'm happy I made two other people happy while trading with them.
