Trade Rant Thread

[~Kaleidoscope~]

I just got a completely unfair trade (it offered a few newborns and a cocoon for m winged black-eyes blood dog). What really annoyed me was the message: You are happy to edit.
Eh? (oh, and the dog wasn't in my trades)
I cancelled and replied: No, actually, I'm not happy to edit.

I'm getting tired of trade after trade of *just* "please edit" or, "But you have 2!!"(when I don't )
So I started responding to them in rhyme xD
Most popular one so far is,
"Rules are divine...you should try reading them some time"

Wow I got my first Trade Rant Thread worthy trade today I feel so special. I read through a lot of these pages but there's a ton so I don't know if anything like this has been posted in here before or not. I'm sure it has but I gotta vent anyway.
I received a trade last night out of the blue from someone wanting all of my extra Nov Staff pups. She offered me a bunch of commons and very commons from last month that I've already got probably five each of. So I figured I'd go in and see if she had anything else that I might be interested in. I noticed first off that she already had quite a few of each of the Nov Staff Pups she wanted from me for basically in my opinion low quality pets from last month. I also saw that she had a few of the Nov Staff Pups under blankets yet in a group that was open to trades. So I edited her trade and asked for an equal amount of Nov Blankets for the Nov Staffs she had asked for in her initial trade request. She sent back offering the same low quality pets from last month asking for my Nov Staff Pups yet again. Now this was late last night and I was a bit tired. I thought maybe I had only "thought" about editing the trade and sending it back but hadn't actually done it. So I sent the trade back again this morning offering the Nov Staff Pups she'd wanted and asking for some Nov Staff Blankets in exchange. She canceled the trade and left a note: and I quote "ONLY trade groups " Sorry, I may be new but I'm not dumb. I may have been born at night but it wasn't last night. If you send me a crappy trade DO NOT DARE get all indignant when I send it back asking for what I want instead. And definitely DO NOT send the same crappy trade back to me a second time. And on the same note, if you send me a crappy trade I'm gonna ask for whatever I feel the trade is worth in return. If you don't want me to ask for it put a lock on the darn group!
OK I'm done now. I feel better. And I think I may just go put some Katt's trading etiquette rules in there saying what I just wrote down here.

I had something similar happen to me. And the really sad part is I initiated the trade. They obviously thought I was crazy or something because offered them a fair trade for a couple of bunnies and some other uncommon pets I needed. -_-

I'm trying to think up of witty canceling messages for n00bs to make annoying trades a bit more bearable. xD

i am speechless...

they are in my 'for auction'-group, what makes people think they are for trade?
even more, they only joined yesterday (i checked), so i highly doubt they have 'always' wanted it.

I hate when I do that. I give away one of my pets for free and me and the preson who I traded it to got in a fight. (I got that pet back but they wanted me to pay them for giving my pet back)

To ask for payment for a pet that was already yours, and was accidently given? That is just rude. It didn't cost them anything in the first place. Some people xD
