[Implemented] An option to disable messages "from your pet"

[☼ morgana]

Posting my support here as I was redirected here! It's been a minute so I might as well just pop in and dust this off. Hopefully this doesn't count as grave digging the thread!

I feel like at the very least, the message could be changed. Maybe you didn't mean to add a pound pet to a trade, so you get made aware. That is something I wouldn't mind, but does the message have to be so? guilt trippy? No.

Secondly, I've never once seen the "pound pets aren't allowed to be traded" actually enforced. I think like most people, nowadays the pound is used for trade fodder, which there is no issue with. Sure, I have a separate group for pound pets, but I still pull from it sometimes for trades.

We also shouldn't have to set up a PM rule, it seems like an unnecessary hoop, and could easily be solved with a quick check box setting disabling those pms. Maybe I'm just a bit lazy /shrug

Support. It’s such a horrible message to receive. I got a massive panic attack because of that message since I didn’t know it was a thing. Please let us disable that awful message.

support! it's reeeeally annoying, whenever i get a duplicate of a pet i own from the pound, i replace the original pet in my collection with the pound pet just so i don't get that stupid message when i trade it away. i shouldn't have to do that.
i hate getting my hopes up for an off-site trade offer or something when i get a new message, only for it to be my pet guilt tripping me. yuck.

Support. For one thing my pets don't talk to me in any other fashion. All they got to say is a guilt trip? How rude!

This was suggested almost 10 years ago.
This is a unanimous call from the community at this point, please let us turn them off.

Huge support.

With the pound opening more frequently this is something that I think needs to be implemented.
Obviously its a lower priority than other issues on the site, but sending players discouraging trades on an economy game is so strange!

Receiving that message is anxiety inducing and honestly unnecessary. Removing it entirely or adding a toggle would mean one less thing for the server to handle as well which is a benefit.

Support. It’s annoying and makes me feel bad. A lot of the time I use the pound to find cuties I like, but I’ve gotten several older pets including rares that I use to trade for pets I want more, and the message just feels not great.

Supporting here again, it's so annoying because I think I'm getting and important message but it just doesn't exist when I click on the inbox.
Also, as many users have said here, the message that comes with the PM is definitely "guilt trippy". I don't remember exactly what it said because I found the way to disable it as soon as I got one [lol], but it tries to make you feel bad to stop you from trading the pet ToT?

Support. Why have I never heard of this before? I swore I gave a pet or two to the pound once. I guess I haven’t…
