I wish I could see their reaction to the "bye" message. xD "Hi" is such a cruddy way to start trades, by itself, anyway. I only use "hello" and such when I've traded with that person before, but it's followed by more. They could at least throw in a "willing to trade?" which may be annoying too, but I'd prefer that over a simple "hi."

What's interesting is that those messages pop up a lot. And the cancel messages are often the same too. xD

Someone just sent me a trade. Wanted 68 pets. Offered nothing, nada, zip! Cancelled with a very rude message, go me! n_n Thing is, most of those 68 pets were commons. Four were re-releases. I can't help but wonder if they were trying to hide the re-releases in the commons. o3o

I [must know what their message was.

Their message was asking me to edit, however I hate the sight of over 50 of my pets in a trade offer, and they didn't read my rules, stating that I don't take open-ended trades.

That happened to me. With ALL of my lions. I felt nice, so I took all of them except for three. Asked for a rudolph. If that's unfair, serves them right. Evil me. I feel guilty though.

I got the same "hi" message a few days ago. So annoying...

If there's anything I hate about trades, it's this:
Someone sends a trade
I take a while to respond due to deciding whether I should accept or not
That someone cancels the trade because they assume I'm not going to accept it.

It's now even in my trade rules not to do that, it's so irritating. T_T

One time, before they made the thing where you can send a suggestion instead of a trade, I offered someone my nine best PPS pups (without anything on their side of the trade) because I heard they were looking for some. So this was my message (or it was something like this):

"I heard you were looking for PPS pups? Well here are the ones I have for trade. Please edit and DO NOT ACCEPT UNTIL WE HAVE BOTH AGREED.

And guess what they did?
You guessed it! They accepted.
I never got them back because the person keeps saying "You told me they were free!" and "You gave them to me!" even though I said don't accept.

Person, you know who you are. And this is a direct slap in the face to you.

Wow.... that's really.... o_O I'd be devastated if I were you.

*adds inpatient people to Griping List* I haven't encountered them, but I reeally don't. Dx Usually I get to trades pretty fast, but there's those times I take breaks off of CS for a bit everyday or even when I'm offline. Do these people not take into account of time zones? Or that someone might check the fair trade thread? Or do they think their offers are so nice you have to take it as soon as you get it? Do they not realize they can even miss out on pets by being inpatient?
