Trade Rant Thread. {new rule please look}

[Skysong]

My Rant: Hardly anyone EVER reads my rules! I get crazy trades for NFT pets!

Like this: http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... -rAbtD-Yzw I don't know about you guys, but I think that is a bit unfair...

Grumble... If only people would read my rules... >.<

lock the group
then you won't get offers.
if the group is open, don't complain about the trades. ^^"

I did lock the group.

you have it wishlist locked.
people can still offer.

Oops.. I went to check and saw it was enabled... My bad...

Hi there ^.^; I read your rules..I noticed you have more than one of each of these items I'm looking for.

No, no you didn't. And great! A 2011 haloween pet for a plushie from 2008? Where do these all these awesome deals come from? /sarcasm

Wow, I'm not sure which trade is worse.

-le sigh-
I understand that the Easter dogs aren't worth that much, but ... really?

wanna trade? if not, i understand

^ this lovely message accompanied it.
The group name says 'for rares only'. So obviously, no, I don't want to trade
it for these two recent hoard pets.
Crazy, I know.

Just got the following PM:
(keeping in mind this person is a member for less than a month so hasn't been "searching for this dreamie for ever and ever" )

Please tell me, how did you ever gain your 08 black advent dog? ^^
it has been my dreamies since I first checekd the archives and I am desperate to find it somewhere. Id give up every pet I had for it.
But could you please explain how I could ever possibly obtain the dog?
Much appreciated.

To which I replied:

I don't know. We've had probably ten of them over the years. I just traded for them.

I had a feeling this was coming. And sure enough, the next PM from this random person I've never talked to before:

Oh, well, if it possible to trade for this one?

I wanna hit somebody right now. But instead I calmly replied:

If they were for trade they wouldn't be locked away.

I dunno, but I always understood locked groups to be off limits and just left it at that. I've never bothered anyone about pets in their locked groups. Am I wrong to think this is a bit brazen?

Okay so I went to trade with someone, and here are their rules... use proppar grammar, god you lunatics. I don't mind spelling that much, CS dosn't have spell check (and I'm a fail speller), but honestly! How hard is it to put in commas and periods?!

i dont have that many pets but thats why i will accept almost anything from you. my goal is to have all the pets of chickensmothie and i would love it if you could send a message too. i like suggestions the best but you could still send trades




~rules~

1 i will accept almost any butterfly wolfs if i dont already have it
2 i will accept almost any bunnys if i dont already have it
3 it has to be fair too. i will make a silly trade out of it if you give me a bad trade
4 i will soon have a adoption center where you can get 2 pets from a week
5 only send suggestions!
6 i will take any foxes no matter how many of the type i have
7 i will take any lions no matter how many of the type i have
8 my hording groups ARE NOT FOR TRADE!!!!!!!! but i will gladly take a duplicate or more of the animals in hording
9 have fun!

well, it's all I have on your wishlist...

You can't just offer wishlist pets and assume it's fair. .___.
And here I thought they knew their rarities. Ah, well...

10 DO NOT CANCEL

What's up with that kinda trade rule?

10 DO NOT CANCEL

What's up with that kinda trade rule?

I dunno. I don't like being told what to do though, so I'd probably cancel just for that even if the trade was in my favor. Silly people!

IKR!!!
