I have never been Pet Flashed...but what happened if someone accepted really quick? Would they get mad and message Tess? I mean, its kinda their fault for flashing that pet anyway...

Ah, I hope you never are then. It's can really suck, sometimes. -w-
Usually, they send suggestions with no message (As I was done.) or they ask what you could give them for the pet, knowing very well that you can't afford such a pet. In the case of sending it as a trade, they usually send it and cancel it literally seconds after.
I guess if it is accepted, then there's nothing they could do about it since they knowingly sent it as a trade. *shrug*

Do they do it to be rude or are they just going around hoping someone has something worth it?

They do it to have fuuun. It's risky and exciting. Boy would I like to be the person who accepts one of them rare pet flashes...I would of been lmao if they were about to cancel when I accepted.

I got pet-flashed this morning >.<. They offered a minor dreamie, too.

I understand the your rules say don't send suggestions, but these is nothing in your open group that I am looking for or that is worth this pet, so maybe you can suggest a couple things for it?(:

1. If you understand, why send a suggestion anyway? That's almost worse than not reading them!
2. Clearly they are trying to get me to trade from my locked groups. If it were up for trade, don't you think it would be open??

this person sent me a suggestion with nothing on there side and a non-coon on my side. so i edit it and added a joker and a couple of other pets. they reply saying they arnt for trade. so i send back asking whats for trade? they send back with 4 rares from 2009. a non-coon for 4 2009 rares????? what are u serios. and they had enough stuff that was worth it.......

Same here...but i would never even try to pet flash people, because once a group of people catch on that there's a pet flasher, they all are on the lookout for trades and it has a good chance of being accepted xD

It would be the funniest thing ever if a flasher's internet crashed right after they sent a trade xD.

I have someone offering to trade me a FANTASTIC pet I really want, but I have nothing worth it. I can't make myself cancel it either, because I really want the pet. ARGH!!!

That's happened to me...I was forced to cancle though...

I'm going to have to as well, it just hurts.

On topic: I have very few trade rules, only 5. All plainly laid out, no crazy text color or stories, just the 5 rules. Here is Rule 4

"4. Items are only for trade if I have doubles of them. Absolutely not trading plushies or dragon wings/fur even if there are doubles of those."

I like the pets, but I have doubles of NONE of these, and some are plushies.

Again, not sure it's an unfair trade, but the plushies!

If I ever got offered a good pet for free.Fearing they were a flasher I would accept without a message.Long thank you messages often take a few minutes to write giving the flasher a chance to cancel.Only after I had accepted I would send them a PM with a big thank you message

Exactly what I would do.
BUT
Guys don't forget, they might have sent it by a trade by accident, when they meant or a suggestion. I kinda doubt it, but it Is a possibility.

Can you imagine if they were really flashing you a pet, and after you accepted they tried to get the trade reversed xD
