Trade Rant Thread [V.35]

[reanimator]

I understand why people cancel my trades sometimes, I mean, I'm not the best at trading so sometimes the trades I send may be a bit unfair
but there are times, when a trade is completely fair, yet they cancel, and I just want to know why you know?
Like, did I offer on a pet you don't want to trade away?
Do you not like the pet I offered?
I usually don't care if someone cancels without a message, but if it's a completely fair trade I would like a message to know what I did wrong.

If you don't want it, why is it on your wishlist?
Self rant:
Why did I trade all my list pets (Most of them) for underpay?.....

[sweet n sorrow]

Why can't people read rules? I've made them "extra big" for the people on laptops and computers who can't zoom in with the touch of 2 fingers.

[indebted]

Why would you include a "little story" in your trades, and later state that there's a codeword somewhere in the trade rules? Seriously? Just put the codeword in the rules ;u; I don't want to have to carefully comb through your entire block of text.

So you have a thread for cross site trading with Flight Rising, Right?
And you have all the exchange prices listed out so nicely
I send you a trade with plenty of wishlist rares and Items,
I politely say that I would like a mix of gems and treasure, and that you can edit the trade.
You cancel without a message.
WHAT? Could you at least say "No thanks?" I said you can edit!

Then yesterday you send me a trade, two store pets and two missed outcomes.
You ask if 20,000 treasure is okay.
First of all, that would be overpay on my part.
I send you the suggestion back asking for gems instead.
You cancel without a message.

I've got to say, there's a bunch of rules I'm fine with. In fact, most times, I'll take a look at trade rules before I send something. Actually, I'm pretty stringent about my own trade rules so I get it. But when you cancel a trade because people have to follow your "rule" that a message has to be left, that's just pointless. I could offer you that UR Tiger you want so badly for your two halloween hamsters and I bet you'd still cancel for not leaving a message. There's a lot of rules that I'm fine with, but that's got to be possibly the worst reason I ever run into for canceled trades.

[Harpy•]

Good heavens, it's one simple rule. Why is it so hard to follow?
Leave a message. It's my very first rule. And I have very simple rules. No silly codeword, no ridiculous pet/rule story thing, no crazy colors or sizes.

It's quite a simple thing that I ask of people when they take the time out of their day to send me a trade. Leave a message with it.

And yet so many people break it.

[lofiii]

dont you hate it when there is a major dreamie for auction, but
you just need one - one! - other pet to auto it? And no has it, including you. ._.

Canceled with No.
The pony was on you wl and is from early 09.....Sorry for offering you massive overpay.
I don't care if ponies have horrible demand, whatever, my pet was 3 years older, that more than makes up the difference.
*goes back to trying to find a user who actually values pets at what they're worth*

[Mental Disaster]

When you have a really good trade but you like your pet a lot and you cannot decide...AHHHHHH going crazy!
