Trade Rant Thread

Ok this story really annoys me.

I got a trade last night for my extra line tribal who is on reserve because it is in an auction. One of my rules is do not ask for reserved pets. On my trade thread is says to only offer on reserved if you have the Floppy eared tribal.
Message:

Oops, looks like this was in the Reserved, guess I'm a rebel lol.
When you get the chance can you look through my rares?

(This is paraphrased)

Well, it had irked me already because a noob ignoring trade rules is one thing but a person who admits to reading them but completely bypassed them, I mean WTH?!

I looked just to be nice since is was thanksgiving already. The most they had were Novembers and lots of uncommon pets, maybe a rare or two scattered in there.

So I canceled the trade with this message:
Sorry, but unless you are offering a Floppy Eared Tribal, he's not up for any sort of trade. And next time follow the rules. They're there for a reason
(Relatively polite, right? Well as polite as that was called for.)

Well, this morning when I got up I got this PM:

Thanks anyways...
You kids and your rules kill me!
This is for fun and everyone gets so rude to each other!
Happy Thanksgiving!

This just ticked me off I mean come on!!
This is my reply, lets see if they respond back...

Look ok, first of all, I have had a lot of trouble with people following my rules. Most of the time they just aren't read. At all. And when I find someone who did read them, but chose to completely ignore them, well it irks me quite a bit. And also, by the way, I would almost guarantee that you are not much older then I am. Being a "kid" has nothing to do with it. I agree this is for fun, but I am also a collector. I want to get the pets I need to complete my collection. They are reserved for a reason, they are currently in an auction for the floppy eared tribal.

I apologize, and my canceling message was polite as well, and I also apologized there.

And yes, Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. Though you have a great way of showing thankfulness, by harping on someone who canceled your trade because you broke their rules. Bravo!

But I mean really, did you have to be so rude on Thanksgiving? I wasn't even being rude to her.


I'm already having a hard time.....I didn't need someone like this.

I just got a random trade asking for my rare Advent dog:

what do you want for her?

People who send blank trades really annoy me. Since she never specified what groups I could pick from, I asked for one of her Advent dogs. She cancles saying:

no thanx.

>.< Then I send her a PM and she replied with:

ok

Obviously it's not the worst trade on this thread, but I've been getting a ton of trades like this recently and I needed to let some steam out.

[Fishie]

Ugh. Again, I have nothing against this person but this annoyed me a little.
She makes a request in my art shop, and offers 2 pets from her trade for payment.
My rules clearly state that I want them to make a direct payment, not 'pick from my trade', but they were polite so I looked.
Turns out they had a rat I was missing from January, as well as about 3 advent rats and a November. So I decided on the January rat and an advent rat.
I finished the art trade and sent them a trade for payment.
They PM me asking me to change the trade because the advent rat was from the pound and it was in her trades by accident. I look through her trades and all the advent rats are from the pound. So is the November and the January rat I needed. I PM'd her telling her this so she could remove them, but now all there is from me to pick from are pets I have quite a few of -_-
So basically, she's getting the art for very cheap, and it's as if I'm making it for free. *sigh*
