I haven't read through the whole thread yet, but great topic if people actually read it.
However the reason I'm popping my head in is because a few weeks ago I was getting numerous trades from someone for an 08 dog I had in my trades. I said "no", every time, and not to bother with sending a trade to me unless i was missing something or specifically asked for it in trades. But they wouldn't listen and were the first person I blocked after about 6 trade attempts with me saying "no, not interested". Rambling, but it might be wise to say that "no" means just that, "no", not "try again another few times until I get so angry I block you".

Another addition.

Even if you are new.... you are not a speshul snowflake entitled to free pets and people aren't obligated to give you freebies because you're new. We were all new once and we had to work to get to where we are.

And mods/staff aren't the pet Salvation Army. Don't pester them for freebies.

Heck, go through my trade rules and see if there's anything worthy of adding.

IF IT'S NOT IN MY TRADE GROUP, IT'S NOT FOR TRADE.

Jesus Moscowitz Christ, people. It's 200 point font! How can you miss it! If you ignore them you are a moron and I will treat you like one.

COME TO ME WITH OFFERS. DON'T ASK WHAT I WANT: I will edit as I see fit.

DON'T SEND ME BLANK TRADES WITH "EDIT": I will take that as "go through every group you have, pick what I want no matter how rare or unfair it is, and ask for it." Obnoxious? So is you not reading my trade rules.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE RARITY OF YOUR PET, DON'T BOTHER: I'm not going to waste time on you because you're lazy for not doing research.

YOU ARE NOT A SPESHUL SNOWFLAKE ENTITLED TO PETS BECAUSE YOU'RE NEW: I was new once, and I had to work for my pets. I don't hand out freebies.

OFFER FAIRLY: I'm not an idiot.

SPEAK ENGLISH: I hate chatspeak and I will refuse to bend backwards to read what you call a sentence if it looks like this "omg i wnat deez petz plz gimme dem lol"

By sending me a trade, you give me the right to make fun of your trade if it is stupid. Do your research and try not to cry when trading with Wendigo.

"And mods/staff aren't the pet Salvation Army. Don't pester them for freebies."

Amen. XD I'm sick and tired of so many darn newbie trades, all the bloody time...

Have you got something about how people WILL NOT TRADE CUSTOMS, no matter HOW MANY 2nd gens you offer? XD

If you'll excuse me, I'm going to lock myself in the pantry and drown my sorrows in bottled water and granola bars.

Yes, 2nd gens are neat, but not worth a custom. XD

This is a very good idea. I'll put a link to it in my trade rules, if you don't mind :3

I know >.<

Before we could lock our Ungrouped Pets section I got trades asking for Tejina like... Every day.

And I get about ten a day from n00bs asking for freebies or offering warrior cats for my Octobers :P (My Augusts, Julys, and other rares are in a separate group that's locked 'cause I got even more *cough*incredibly stupid*cough* offers before...)

AAAAHHHH WHY CAN'T YOU PEOPLE READDDDDD D8<

EDIT:
13. Pets from July or such are still as rare as the original release when they are released in the advent calendar. So common advent's ARE NOT worth a moonswirl or a jewlrey sundog.


You should make that say 'July '08', as July '09 pets are worth a lot less than advents :3
