I can't stand codewords. And one time with one trade, I had to write a entire story about fruit just to prove a read the rules.

I want people to follow my trading rules, yes. But there is no way I'm going to make people do that.

A whole story just about fruit? That's insane. Codewords are stupid. A story about fruit is overdoing it. -.-"

Definitely. If people didn't read your rules you'll notice
when they start breaking them.

Someone posted they wanted the coon staff dog in the swaps thread, and they had a PPS extra, so I sent them one: http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... JLcdeF5Z0Q

Cause I've got some proper randoms trade with me before. And apparently I am their "Friend"

Fruit is just a bit O.o I hate stories they are just Grr

OMG! Someone sent me this P. message:

Um, may I have a sunjewel pup for a griffin outcome of this month's staff pups...?

Don't complain. I'm from 08 and I got my first 08 pet a month ago. xD

I was collecting pets on here before they had accounts, then right when I kinda got tired of slapping them all on my Petz site, they decided "hey, let's let people KEEP these pets on an account!", so I'm WAY behind Man, I wish there was a way to prove I had them, so they'd credit me with having them on my account...in my dreams!

There was a chance at that for a while, but I believe you had to have the same username you had on the pets to get them. Weren't you there during that time? My friend got some of her 08 pets to her account that way back then.

I agree on the codewords whole-heartedly. It annoys the hell out of me, even to the point that I have stopped trading with people who have them in their rules (except they send the trade to me).
Things like "banana" or something like that don't bother me all that much (there are way worse codewords like "I heart Edward" or some such nonsense), but they still make me hit the return button <.<
There was a codewords topic once and according to the survey there many people refuse to trade when there's a codeword (I'm one of them), so it's also not very clever to have one since it stops so many people from sending trades.

The bats weren't even on my wishlist (the horse was so that's how they got around the lock)
They had pleanty of pets that would have made a fair trade.

Your offer for the pups is a generous over payment as it is, which many users should appreciate that you are very kind to offer 08 advents, but that is going a way to far! How greedy of them...:O What did you reply with? :O
