I skimmed over this and was very happy.
You cover all the things that I hate when I see trade rules. lol. As an older (much older) player, I already have most of the pets on the site that I want, so I don't bother even looking at the pets of people who threaten to foe someone or who have NFT pets in unlocked groups. If you don't want to trade it, lock it. If you're going to foe me for being nice enough to consider trading with you...Well, then I don't want to trade with you. Or look at your pets. And I don't have time to read stories about your pets. If I want to do that, I'll go to the creativity section, not trade with you. lol. I know it sounds like I'm being mean, but most of the older players that I've talked to are the same way--we don't bother trading with people who can't write polite, simple trade rules. So it is true--the people who are likely to give the best trades are the ones that get chased off by bad trade rules. The bad traders...well, you get bad trades whether you have nice or mean rules. lol. Most bad traders aren't intentional, though--they just don't understand how rarity and trading works yet.
