Daily Standard Trade Thread for 11.12.13-11.13.13
[m]
- Please read the rules before posting and make sure you've formatted everything correctly
- No karma begging!
- No shinies or events are to be traded on this thread with the exception of shiny trades involving Ditto
- Please include which generation game you wish to trade on in your post.
- Use your browser's search function (F3 for most) to quickly search for certain pokemon or items.
- Any off-topic discussion is allowed, but it must be contained as a reply to the dedicated discussion comment.
- Have a question not covered in the FAQ? Message the Mods.
Now that I've got you guys here, I'd also like to address a couple points.
- If you make a post that is deleted by automod and Reddit does not allow you to post again for 10 minutes or whatever, please understand that this is beyond the mods' control, and is a security measure put in place by the Reddit admins, not this specific sub's mods.
- Upvote each other. We ask people not to beg for karma, so upvote each others' comments! Had a successful trade? Upvote that s***! The karma limit is an obstacle for beginning Redditors and the answer shouldn't be to make a semi-coherent comment in r/pics or r/adviceanimals; it's just not relevant. It shouldn't be the case for a user to have completed 5 trades and still be unable to post.
- Unfortunately, mods cannot be asked to mediate trades. We are simply too busy with our lives and modding a very active sub, and asking us to take a half hour to an hour to complete a trade that doesn't need to involve them at all is just not going to happen. If you don't trust the other user, don't trade with them.
- If you are scammed, report the scammer to the mods with their FC and a screenshot of the conversation. We take scamming reports very seriously and pride ourselves on being one of the safest pokemon trading forums on the internet.
- Lastly, complaints are actually welcome. The transition from Pokemon Black and White to X and Y has been enormous for this sub, and as mods, we're still working out how best to keep things organized, consistent, and safe - yet still usable and fun. Of course there are couple things that need work, like trades with shiny Dittos/ High IV Dittos for shinies. Your feedback is our best gauge of how our changes have affected the sub and community. However, I'd like to ask that you be polite and respectful, and that you include a suggestion for each complaint. If you don't like the way something works, offer at least one solution to improve it. This should really be a general rule of thumb for life.
Anyways, sorry for the long text. Last note I'd like to make is that since we screwed up (bad on us!) and didn't make a Daily Standard Trade Thread today, this thread will be for trades from now on as well as tomorrow.
