This trade was for the August PPS Lion Cub
Are people insane now?

Yes.
Yes they are.
Very insane. ;;.;;

BUT, it is slightly rude of you to share someone else's trade. 'Juss sayin.

And this apple-- my 'good' trade for the dumb thing fell through ;-;
Now I'm stuck. I dunno what to do! ;A;
I guess I'll just go angrily bumping my auction thread. =.=

You don't want to see what someone auto'd my auction for mine for. I didn't even expect it. I was just hoping for someone to have a july lion in their bid so I could swap it for one adopted on my birthday. :p

My rant is I'm not going to be getting a july lion anytime soon because people still expect major overpay for it. I can't even hardly find anyone with one that isn't labeled NFT. >:P

*Sigh* When you want to trade with someone and all the pets you have on their wishlist you only have one of. ;_;

How is it rude of them to share someone else's trade? If it was part of an auction, they obviously don't mind the link being out there for everyone to see anyway...

anywho, this trade still has me angry:

If they have something you REALLY want, you might as well risk it.
My exception to that is if it's part of a collection I don't wanna break up or if it's ridiculously unfair

I've had a bid of mine shared without my permission before, and I personally wasn't thrilled.
What if that person doesn't appreciate it either?
Just really think about it, please. It isn't the nicest thing to do, no offense. ;;.;;

My problem? Everything I have is part of a collection. >.< I'm one of those who tries to get a complete set of everything (even if it is hard), that's why my WL is so long, lol.

Then don't enter auctions that post the link? Any time you enter an auction that posts links to the bid, you run that risk. Telling people off for ranting about insane trades isn't the nicest thing to do either. They had every right to rant about it. Can we drop it now please?

Ahh, I know how that is XD

I was voicing from personal experience, deary. Even if a bid is displayed for public viewing, it isn't the most polite action to share it without the owner's say-so.
Now I will drop the subject, with pleasure.

Though I agree with both of you, I think that Drina does have a point, bids are sort of like trades, people here have the right to rant about trades as well as bids. I've seen plenty of people take trades from 'Is This Fair?' thread and not many complain. Though I do understand where you are getting at, Autumel, most bids are public anyway, people are going to view them whether its on the Auction or on the Trade Rant Thread. It may not be polite though insane bids can really catch ones eye. Besides, an Auction Rant Thread does exist where plenty do rant about Auctions and Bids as well most likely without permission from the owner of the Bid or Auction. Now anymore opinions can be PMed each other, for now, let's rant and rave!

As for my personal auction, I'm not off with a great start, hopefully I will get a bid that I will really want >.<

Lol it seems like the only thing I ever have on peoples wishlists are my Shima Longtails and my store pets, which I don't want to trade o.o

Oh great. I get my Green Sorbet, FINALLY *squee* but now I must go track down another White Lolita. The Sorbet and Lolita were to be a set, but I had to trade her to get my Sorb :c
This is going to be hell, pardon my language.
I wonder how long THIS paperclip will take?

And then after that, I have to track down/Paperclip up to a UR Rat, then a Blood dog, then a Seal PPS.............
Why does it seem like I just gave myself more work than was needed?
Yeah, I got away with a bit of an underpay, but now I have to track down several other pets, three of which were minr dreamies......
