Rules wrote:1. For the first 14 days after a Sweeten is released, it can only be traded for other Sweetens, and for the first 5 days, it can only be litter-swapped (traded for other outcomes in the same litter). During the two week cooldown, it cannot be traded for other user-made adoptables/closed species, feathers, C$, CS pets, etc. until after 14 days have passed. For example, if a litter is released on January 1st, and you decide to trade a Sweeten you adopted from this litter, until the 14th you can only trade it for another Sweeten. After the 14th (15th onward), you can also trade it for feathers, items, CS currency, or other UMAs. If caught doing this, you will be asked to reverse the trade or both parties will receive a strike (attempting to trade like this again after results in an instant strike regardless of whether or not it's reversed.)
NOTE: You also may not ask for offers in advance either (i.e. "when the timer is up, I'll trade the Sweeten for C$ too! Feel free to offer and I'll hold onto it for you until the timer passes!). Do not try to have someone gift a Sweeten to you and then "gift" them currency either, this is very easy to catch. If your action is intended to somehow get around this rule, it is not allowed.
2. Sweetens can only be sold for offsite currency or real money if purchased with real money or it comes with art that was bought with real money. In the case of the latter, you can only sell it for as much as was spent on art.
Reminder that USD trades have to be conducted offsite, such as on Discord.
3. All trades and gifts are final. Trades are automatically accepted unless the user protests or rejects the form, or it was discovered it was made behind the user's back. Please keep this in mind. Accepting forms is okay if it's habitual, but not required for a trade to go through in Sweetens.
4. Sweetens are permitted to be traded for other closed species (after the cooldown), but make sure it's allowed in said species. Some species, including UMA threads (such as Mutatoes, Fox-n-key, and Fuzzy Wuzzies) do
not allow cross-species trading, so don't conduct trades involving them. Please check before trading.
5. You may not trade Sweetens for Cloudy Leopards unless they are transferred out of the species. This is regardless of trading status on them and will still apply even if current rules change.
6. If it becomes apparent that you're only adopting Sweetens only to trade for other UMAs (not wanting Sweetens in return) repeatedly or to sell them for only non-Sweetens currency/art the moment the cooldown ends, that's not permitted and you will be DMed about it. Doing so further may result in a strike. If you aren't interested in Sweetens, then please don't adopt one just so you can get a species you do like. While not necessarily disallowed, it is also discouraged to only adopt Sweetens from Sweeten litters just to trade them, and we ask you to reconsider doing this--as it can be unintentionally disrespectful to the artist or takes away from adopters who were interested in the outcome you got for the purpose for trading.
7. A Sweeten with a green watermark cannot be traded or sold, only gifted.8. Sweetens obtained from a free litter or raffle on Discord can only be sold for C$300 or less unless they have paid artwork (
that already exists at the time of the transaction) attached. Event Sweetens and customs/breedings do not have a price cap at this time.
9. You may give Sweetens to people offsite, but you MUST ask me first, link me to the account of the user (in your form or to me in DMs), and inform said user of the proper artist credits and trading rules the species follows. If you do not do this going forward, your trade will not count. Giving a Sweeten to someone who does not use Chicken Smoothie means it is being transferred out of the species and I need to be aware that said user is not infringing on resell rules and is crediting me for my work as well as the artist of the Sweeten itself.
10. You need to have an updated co-op archive to trade your V.2 Sweetens. This is so we can easily keep track of who owns what. Please note this includes making sure any old, outdated image links leftover from Discord are fixed (All Sweetens are backed up on the
Filegarden, choose a year folder and search for the Sweeten by filename and sort by alphabetical order)
11. Please use permanent image links on this thread. Discord URLs are obsolete as of 2024 and break after a couple hours, please find the Sweetens' URLs in the Filegarden or re-upload them somewhere yourself when posting forms here.
