New rant of the day!

I get a PM about a dragon. This person straight out says they want a dragon that isn't for sale - because 'they want her'. If I don't want to be reasonable and sell, they want to borrow her. It's ok though, not right now, but soon(TM) :| I just....the PM isn't even friendly in its tone - there's no 'she's pretty and I have a boy can we do a shared breeding, we can split the eggs etc'. In fact, they offer no payment of any kind, no offer of any collateral, no offer of babies etc. Sigh. Maybe I'm too polite :lol: Sooo tempted to answer with a NOPE and that's all -.-"

I'd just block them and not respond. They probably wouldn't give her back if you lent her. They sound like an entitled child.

If they weren't polite in the first place, I'd tell them the hell off tbh.

It'd be one thing if they were polite cause I've given up dragons that weren't for sale to give someone their dream dragon and such. Someone has also done it for me (Yumeko, my Fae dragon and her mate, Figment!). I was polite with the girl that had those two...namely yumeko. She threw in Figment for free. I was so touched by her generosity....

It's another entirely to not offer a damn thing just cause you want a dragon. It's rude, for starters. It's inconsiderate and just makes the person look like a brat.

Thanks for the comments guys! :hug:

Yep I've sold and even given away dragons to people who have enquired nicely about them (even when I totally had plans for them, had gene'd them etc). But this one :| They only joined back in April, but still - being a newbie to FR doesn't excuse bad manners xD It's this pretty lady they want too:

Image

By the looks of their lair, the boy that they probably want her for is basic/basic/circuit anyways so it's a real waste of her breeding CD for me since her mate has tiger/shimmer/circuit :| Bah - sorry random person, not gonna happen!

What the hell is with people snatching up renaming scrolls from the MP all of a sudden? They used to sit there until the market refreshed sometimes and now I can't even get one without them going out-of-stock mid-click :/

Like hell, there was even a few Currents and Ripples in stock and the renaming scrolls sold out faster than them

THIS! ^^^ Went searching for one last night and... gone. O.o

Oh, and my first nest hatched today and I really do have Friday the 13th babies. All pretty pastels... and both MALE. Doh! Poor pretty boys. *LOL* I hope someone will like them. On the plus side, at least there was one ripple.

I noticed this too. I needed a handful of them and its been a process and a half to snag them off the MP! It's actually how I managed to nab Current...LOL Was stalking trying to get my hands on a rename scroll! I wonder why they're so popular all of a sudden. xD

I love wildclaws and want more but my picky-ness is ridiculous
And I don't feel like I should be spending my money on myself or other wise!

I just get the whole "Will I keep it long or will I get annoyed at it and exalt in the next week" idea in my head and not buy them ><

What she said. If they don't respond in two weeks, ping them on the help forum. I'm thrilled to have Yumeko back!

I'm having the most awful day. I'm stuck at work till 1 which I've never done. I'm alone and scared and browsing FR in my spare time and I see the most beautiful imp I want but she's 250k. Which is 200k more than I have because she has ripple. I love her. I wanna give her current and.. None of my babies will sell and... /sigh.
