I mean, look at this. (Not trying to advertise my trade)

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?

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.

Wow, screw that. I can't stand having more people shark me as if I'm an idiot.

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.

My reading skill is so strong that I once finished a novel before the writer had finished it.

 

True story.

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.

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.

"I WILL BUY YOUR STUFF AT THIS PRICE:
2 weapons/1 scrap
1 ref/1 craft hat
15 ref/1 key
3 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.

Guess what? That is the exact reason I don't flip cosmetics anymore. People seriously have insane requests/ideas/mental states.

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

Only 10 people in a month? AwesomeMcCoolName says hello.

 

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.
