Trade Rant Thread [V.30][Read All the Rules Before Posting]

[Skeseth]

It's been a long time since I got a trade that makes me want to throttle the person sending it and wonder what possessed them to do it. DX

This was just sent to me, ready to accept, no message (the member was NOT a COPPA user). Really? It's definitely an insult to send someone that.

When people ask for my minor dreamie, which is ALSO my fursona that i way overpayed for. Suddenly this happens a lot... i overpayed ( this is my overpay: http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... 5DFNgw-Jag ) See what i got myself into? Just look at all this crap from below. Ugh.


My Reaction: What? Why- in my rules i said, but, uhhhhhhh, NO
Trades:

(what the heck?) http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... 0jmtdEdyHg

I even told the person when i saw this i died inside, because i did. From this trade: http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... P75WsAlmyw to http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... CdOmI8m2pQ

I regret getting that wonderful pet. =w= he makes me wanna pull my hair out sometimes.

Ridiculous rarity math.
How I love it.

But it's a sign that the year isn't the sign of an advanced trader.
Person, you are from 2011 and you still believe in rarity math?
That's no good idea.

2 UC =/= 1 Rare
2 Rares =/= 1 Very Rare

Please throw this away. You will never get rares and very rares when trading this way.
People laugh at you. You'll loose all your rares and never get one.
And you still ask why? Because this rarity math does not work. No.

I send out this trade. Might be a bit unfair to me; because 2 common don't add up the 2-month-gap between both rares. Didn't matter 'bout this.

A few minutes later it came back, edited to this. I thought "Whoa, person!" I edited back to the trade I sent first with the message

Thank you for making a fair trade unfair.

A few minutes later I received an edit again. This one. My poor Rare bunny-dog

But the message was, well, just to scream for:

This is not unfair it over pay

How can you believe it's unfair? This is something of stupid rarity math.
I re-edited back to my version; by telling them this message:

Before you try to tell me that this trade is fair take proof in the FTT.

Your trade edits are not fair, they are horribly unfair to me.
My rares don't fly to me like a gift, I've worked hard for them. That's why I won't accept this rarity math.

In my eyes a logic explanation. But they cancelled with this message.

2 uncommons is a rare 2 commons is a uncommon

Whoa, with this rarity math you won't get any rare at all.

______ Sorry for the long rant but I had to write down this.

ARG!! My rules clearly say I DONT want rats or spiders, WHY THE HECK DO PEOPLE KEEP SENDING ME THEIR RATS! I DONT WANT THEM!

[~Mia~]

I hate it when people cancels trades when its unfair.
In my offer/my message said "please edit, thank you".
And they cancels cause apparently it's unfair. Maybe so but I sent it as a suggestion so the person can edit the offer. That's why I wrote please edit. Some people are really full of it! Ugh. Whatever..

[his girl friday]

i hate getting told to edit, and then theres nothing they have that I want. or getting told to edit for my list pets when they have not only no list pets I want, but not even a fair trade in regular pets for my list pets.

[Topiratti]

just because you send a suggestion, doesnt mean i have to edit it, i have that power to cancel a trade, regardless if its a suggestion or not

and most times i cancel a suggestion its because 1]you have pets that interest me, 2]no pets worth what your wanting from me or 3]your folders have names that are either not readable (block icons) or have some sort of name not related to "for trade"

also when it comes to canceling without a message

most time i cancel without one when players break any of my rules

that or im just not in the mood to write something, sometimes its best to cancel without a message, then to receive a message that may offend

its not rude to cancel without a message

Edit:
Just found another one.. >-<

[Citric]

I get sent this:
http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... sVEu6iH_qw
Message: "What would you like?!?!?!"

I send it back as a suggestion:
Message: Do you have any list pets?

I get sent the same trade back.
Message: No , but I really need this pet for my rat collection. Can we please work something out?


I thought, "huh. I guess they haven't read my rules." because they clearly say, "list pets for list pets."
So I decided to check out theirs.

It has this:
-A small gold list-
And:
"I DON'T READ YOUR RULES! ITS A WASTE OF MY CS TIME! "

I cancel politely on screen while raging at them in my head.

[Topiratti]

it's ok?

if your not going to read my rules im not going to cancel with a message, its not hard to read FIVE RULES, just five rules

that trade is NOT a trade up for my malk coyote/dog, its from 2009, and its rare, i want a 2009 rare for it, not a bunch of pets that are uncommon and below, and just becase you give me hoards doesnt mean im going to accept it

do i have to reorder my rules?
