Trade Rant Thread

[Cirque]

i don't know why, but when i was a newbie people were extrodinarily nice to me. most people traded their pets for 2nd. gens or very common horses of mine, and people gave me pets that people trade a decent amount for for free. i feel really bad for the people that were ripped off when they were a newbie though. i fortunately was never scammed as a newbie.

When I was new... well, I didn't go on the forum, and pretty much everyone was a "n00b". So, no one was specifically kind to me just because I was new. And I was never scammed, actually, which surprised me. My first trade was a January litterswap, and everything after that was good. I *thankfully* didn't trade my Toxic because she was my first pet.

I don't think newbies should all be stereotyped as bad members. We were all new at once - hey, even the staff members were new to CS at some point. But, if a newbie is scammed, it's not the other person's fault - they should look up values before trading. Plus, if they're both happy, I think it's fine.

That's what I don't like, though - newbies being stereotyped in trades.

I was scammed as a new member. I'm pretty glad that I didn't trade away most of my August pets at first, but a lot of my other pets were traded away for commons. ._.;;

Thanks to all the people who are wishing me luck。
It's going ok so far， but they have asked for my BEG， which I refuse to give up even for the banana。 （The previous owner told me to not trade it）
I’ve offered something， but they haven't answered yet。

I'm not really angry at my friend anymore， just a little regretful that I didn't watch over my account while on holiday。

Now the person isn't even bothering to answer!
I'm really angry now. It would be really sad if he/she said 'no, not giving back your banana' but this!

It's not the worst scam in the world . But I was still pretty pissed. I didn't like it at first, and I sent it back, and they accepted. T.T

If the group isn't locked or it doesn't say "not for trade" in its name, it's not very clear that the pet isn't for trade. owo
