[Sweet Release]

The 'Is This a Fair Trade Thread' is such a fail sometimes.... Those people... argh. I don't even bother any more. =_=

Or what really irritates me is people who ask about every single trade they get...I seriously just started saying things along the lines of:

'That's a simple uncommon swap for pets of the same year and close months. Trades like that cannot be weighed for exact fairness, and even if they could, it wouldn't really matter. It's a matter of your opinion. Do you want the dog you have, or the one they're offering? Part of trading includes thinking for yourself.'

So true, so true... I use it mainly for rare trades or really big trades. I do think some trades are just a matter of... I want your pet, you want mine so... who cares if it's precisely fair?

Yeah, I know, I only post a few trades there (ones that I am completely unsure of) and only ones involving rare/very rare trades. But the thread can be helpful sometimes.

My '09 uncommon isn't worth you '11 uncommon, no matter what species >_<

I don't undermine the helpfulness of the thread, it all just depends on who responds. xP

Rare trades are fine to want advice on. And Rares List. But the common swaps tick me off.

100% Valid point. Most of the trades I have seen on here is an '09 for an '11!

[Out of Order]

Most people don't really look at the trades posted there...
they just rush through them and post something...
Sometime overlook a NonJewel or something like that.

Rant #4: or when people offer you an uncommon pet (on your wishlist), for your rare (not on your wishlist anymore) and you decline. Then they PM you angrily about how your own pet wasnt on your wishlist and theirs was. Come on people. Wouldnt you frequently take pets off of your wishlist that you already HAVE? Im just saying, theres no reason to be so PO'd.
