CecilyLovesYou<3™ Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I mean, look at this. (Not trying to advertise my trade) http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/25399871 So far, during this month, there has been more than 10 people that have either added me and told me that I'm "selling craft hats for 1 ref" or they just sent a trade offer to shark me. Okay, what's going on? Someone explain? And maybe how I should improve my trade so people could stop with this bullcrap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSpeed Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 From my experience the average Outpost user can't read more than ~3-4 lines before they just start assuming. Plus, people are always to work a deal in their favour so even if it was one very specific line explaining how your trade worked people would still send you incorrect offers.

I can't stand having more people shark me as if I'm an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 It's kind of a lot to read. A trade like that would be better split into multiple trades. Most of my trades are very specific about what items they involve as well as open-ended in payment and trading methods. I don't usually get the "reading problem" most Outpost users have.

DejaQ Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 That's way too much text. Here's one of my quickbuying trades. http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/25451218#latest Three lines is all you need. If you really think you need more than three lines, split it into multiple trades. End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squidling Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I always read them. ;3 I do enjoy the trades where the poster puts "Say 'somerandomword' in your offer if you actually read this far", and then insults everyone who doesn't put the word in.

Oh yes, agreed with that. Probably because the seller is too pissed from the same situation as I'm experiencing this past month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hexlicious Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I get at least 10+ people a day adding me for trading, even when I literally write in every possible location to not add me for trading, it seems people just doesn't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
∞Ramses Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 "I WILL BUY YOUR STUFF AT THIS PRICE:2 weapons/1 scrap1 ref/1 craft hat15 ref/1 key3 keys/1 bud" This is very unclear. "Buying: 2 weapons: 1 scrap 1 craft hat: 1 ref 1 key: 15 ref 1 bud: 3 keys" Should be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is useless. People nowadays don't have eyes. They can't read. They think they can read and actually they can't. One time, someone added me and said he read my post. It turns out he can't read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy I never got fed up with dumb people, I never got that many either. Though, if I got as many as McCoolName I think I would be fed up with them aswell.
