Trade Rant Thread *New*

[CalicoWolf]

I keep getting unfair trades/or angry PMs, can someone please check out my rules and tell me if I'm doing something wrong?
Yes I know I have a codeword but I'm casual over it, i never cancel just because its not added...
Most the pms are about how everything is wishlist only ... and that my rules are confusing...

I offered someone 2 uncommon 2010s and and a uncommon 2011 (from February or April) for a dragon pup.

You know what I got back?

I was thinking more of an 2011 rare and some uncommon's for it.

So w the dragon pups are OMG Super Ultra Rare and cost an arm and leg? I offered 3 for 1 and two were last years. What a scam.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Dragon pups went rare, especially the green one, he seems a bit harder to find than the others.

Just lock the group.

EDIT:
A better idea is move them out of the "Trade- Canines" group.

Under normal circumstances, I would definitely have them in a locked group, but for now, I'm not moving them because they're part of a test I'm doing.

You have trade groups.. I don't really see the point of the bait pets- you don't need them just because you want to see if people follow your rules. You'll know if people read your rules or not based on the trade they send.

Besides, if it's a trade group, people are going to offer on it no matter what your trades say. An open group is an open group, nothing is stopping people from offering.

That's the reason for the bait pets- to get people to offer on them if they're the type who are clueless enough not to check my trade rules OR the pets' names. I don't want to trade with anyone who does that, so this is my way of "filtering out" people who don't know what they're getting into. Really, 99% of people I've traded with are awesome enough to have avoided adding my bait pets to their trades (which I really appreciate- thanks, guys! ), so how hard can it be?

Well, actually it's not that much of a scam, they are probably going to end up rare, just like the easter dogs, but the uncommons make it unfair. A 2011 rare for a 2011 rare seems fair to me.

I don't blame people for offering if it is in your trade group regardless of it's name, baiting people I think is wrong

How hard can it be to just put them in a locked group?
