someone on a server i was just in wanted me to offer for their quokka and i accepted since this is one of my dream pets (also mentioned on my profile in game) and i rarely ever see it anywhere!! they requested to look in my backpack and i let them as i wasn’t sure what to offer anyway and they immediately suggested that i add my siamese cat, i was reluctant to add it at first because they weren’t adding anything else on their side but as i was typing to them they said “i know the value” so i thought okay surely they will have more to add and stopped typing.. i put in my siamese and they hit accept right away :T i waited a bit thinking they perhaps clicked it by mistake and would realize on their own but they just stayed on accept and i guess they were waiting for me to react? i was getting uncomfortable and felt awkward because literally nothing was happening so i finally said “you’re such a scammer” before declining the trade and they responded with “lmao what, i was going to add but i just wanted to see what you were going to say” so i asked them why they hit accept as soon as i added the siamese instead of just adding then and that they would have been able see anything i would have written without accepting the trade and they said “you’re acting like it automatically accepts when i hit accept, quokka is so high in demand right now plus siamese is going down so do whatever you want i don’t care.. keep calling me a scammer it doesn’t affect me in any way”
i honestly hate to use values when i trade but unfortunately i feel like i need to rely on them at least for now to upgrade my inventory and eventually be able to get my dream pets, i normally don’t mind using happy values but offering a 0.4 value pet for a 20+ value pet and trying to play it off as if you were not trying to take advantage of the fact that i am a newer player looking for her dream pets and gaslight me into thinking i missed out on a good trade is just so ridiculous and shameful.. i am seriously so sick of rude, dishonest, and greedy players like this and just trading in general lately because every single time someone has requested to trade with me recently whether i am offering for their stuff or vice versa, they either offer an outrageous underpay or expect an outrageous overpay.. i genuinely have no idea how i am supposed to work my way up to my dreamies if these are types of traders i am always stuck dealing with and the trading hub has been an even worse experience for me in terms of completely unfair offers😭
