Trade Rant Thread

[Chry]

Yep. . . Rant and Rave people ^^

Few rules:

1: Don't name names, we dont want anyone embarrassed here. Again DO NOT NAME NAMES!
2: If you happen to come here and see the offer you made, don't cry about it.
3: No bad talking "n00bs", as you are just as likely to be named one as the next person.
4: If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. No more of this senseless name calling.
5: Please guys, don't post "Bookmarking" or "marking" or "saving" etc. This topic is really popular and it will always stay close to the front page. If you want to bookmark it, there is a button at the bottom of the page that will store all the threads you want easy access too...
6: No spamming. So no chit-chat, no asking for stupid trades and no SLANDER. That means you don't judge someone because of their grammar issues or their inability to read trade messages. There is always a chance that the person on the other side of the trade might not have your language as their first language or they could even be Dyslexic.
7: New - Do not bad mouth COPPA'd users - As this is getting out of hand, do NOT come here to whine about how annoying it is that COPPA'd Users cannot send trade messages, fail at rarities, or are sending multiple trades/edits, or just being downright annoying. You were once a newb yourself, you should remember this. The Trade Rant Thread is not a place to badmouth the COPPA'd users.
A COPPA'd user is a member under 13 years of age. They cannot send messages on the the forums or on the main site i.e. Trade messages. Yes, there are a large number of them who do not understand rarities, but then, neither did you when you started
8: New - I see this everyday here, and its starting to become a bit of an issue. If you are continuously getting trades for your prized pet, and its annoying and you hate it, have you considered changing the trade settings on said group? If your problems can be fixed by this, I suggest doing so and not complaining over and over about it.

Just a reminder that being rude or abusive to other players is against the rules.

If you cancel a bad trade with a nasty message, you could get in trouble. So don't do it. If someone sends you a nasty message, you can report it, don't retaliate.

If someone tells you that your cancel message was a bit rude, don't get angry at THEM, just revise the way you cancel trades, and don't be such a bully in future.

If you sincerely can't think of a single nice word to say when cancelling a trade, then cancel it without a message. There's no point getting yourself in trouble over someone else's bad trade offer.

Use some common sense, and don't throw a tantrum when other people advise you to tone it down. With their advice, you potentially avoid a board warning. Throwing their advice in their face, you encourage me to give you a board warning.

Think before you post, and think before you abuse someone for sending you a bad trade. I don't care if someone asked for 100 of your very best pets for free, if you turn around and abuse them I will still warn you for nastyness.

Oh shiny!

Don't you hate it when you throw a trade back and forth, and the other user keeps on adding this pet that you don't want in the trade? Yeah, it went back and forth six times -.-

I hate it when someone sends you a trade when they're online,
Then you edit and they go offline
And don't come back for months

rofl. . . i believe i was just pwn'd . . . so mean xD

And yes, the back and forth trading is incredibly irritating. I've had quite a few recently actually. People are obsessed with my rares, and im only seeking like 3 rares/VR's at the moment, so im not going to trade an 08 for a Mausaic PPS lol.

I find it kinda hilarious when people try to fake coppa just so they don't have to read rules. Luckily I don't have any rules really, so I don't get that sorta thing :3 but It's just the funniest thing ever when it happens to others xP
