Trade Corner Suggestion Thread

Mate, it's because your trade thread isn't well...big enough to warrant a thread of its own. Threads that are the size of yours is more a quick trade post.

Thats a nice attitude to go through life with.

An RNG help thread..might be a pretty good idea but since Smogon has one, why not incorporate a PokeRadar chaining help thread?
That might be helpful to some people who can't chain (ME!!)

Yeah but some mebers here arent members of smogon and once again this isnt smogon :/
And i see no point in chaining shinies.... It takes way less time breeding one or RNG Catching one imo but thats just me... Unless your trying to find your SID but that can be found using an AR or Poke.sav but yes it would be helpfull for those that cant RNG or have access to AR or poke.sav so yeah it would be a nice thread

Well good luck with infractions :D
 
i also think that an RNG help thread would be good but only if we have enough members good at it
 
Now that I've seen your "thread" blackwell, I can tell you exactly why it got put into quick trade. It has very little to no layout, you've only got 9 pokemon available to trade with no info on any of them, it's not very clear exactly what you're trading and, though it's optional, you don't have any clear objects that you are looking for. Expand your collection before you put up a thread and consider how you want it to look.

Back on topic, a pokeradar help thread would be nice but I'm not sure if it would generate enough posts to warrant its own thread. But yeah, it would be nice. I need help chaining as well. My chains always break in the twenties and thanks to that, I can't RNG even if I tried. D:

Edit: Sniped. 3 times. Twice by one person. Oww, the pain! >.>

Actually, I know that there are at least 3 people here who RNG. Two I know by name. The first doesn't have a thread here and her collection of pokemon is more or less the reverse of mine with superior stats. >.>
The second, I believe her thread has sunk by now and she is no longer as active. But as far as I can remember, she was more interested in events and her regular RNG'd pokemon were mainly shinies and quite a few were given away free. Um, yeah, random ramblings by me. <.<
 
Using the ridiculous "I can do whatever I want" attitude of Blackwell above as a perfect example I further push that there are 1-2 point infractions given for people who persist to break rules they have already been told off for, especially posting in the wrong place. The mods are always very clear on why they close threads and on the occasions they are not it is usually because there are already a barrage of posts by members saying "use the quick trade".

Hear Hear!!
Hoo Rah!!

Not to mention it wastes the mods time when they might like to do something else. I mean sure they are there to enforce rules but after so many of the same people doing the same stuff it might get a bit tiring..

Greene has spoken!
Maybe there should be a light approval to trade threads. Traders offering a minimum of say, 15 pokes, can have threads. Those with quick trades get moved to quick trade thread.

I personally think it is a good idea, but more mods would need to be assigned to the trade section to make it viable.
 
cloning services should be allowed.

Not gonna happen.
Might I add on the issue of stopping people posting quick trades as full threads, how about adding a 1 point infraction for someone who does it a second time after having their first thread already moved and warned.

No.
One thing I have been fighting for since Day 1 of my time here on PC is being able to edit your thread title yourself. Its just a hassle in my opinion for the person himself to go and find a moderator who is online and to ask him/her to edit your thread title. It also makes me feel noobish a little bit ._. This whole concept is a trust issue I believe on using vulgar in your title, but that could be in regular posts anyway. Does anyone else back up the idea that we should be able to edit our thread titles ourselves?

Not my choice - that's something only administrators can change. I'll see what they think.

Blacklists, eh? Hmm.

Blacklisting will just end up as a failure because if I was Blacklisted, I would just make myself another account. Its that simple to get around it.

Your FC would be noted though. n_n;

On the account. Even though there is a rule for this, there is still no way that it will hold people back making a duplicate account (I know a few people who have done this). There is no way for an Admin to track this, plus if there was, you could say just go downstairs on your parents computer and make an account.

Clearly you've never heard of IP addresses u_u;
 
Odd that you disagree with infracting people for intentionally disobeying the rules over and over when people get infracted for alot less, i.e. not posting 25 letters in posts.

1.) By FC do you mean your Pokemon FC, because people could easily change it in the game.

2.)...Sadly, thats true that I don't know much about IP addresses. I'm a quick learner though ^_^
 
A "directory system" to differentiate between:

~ Breeder / egg move only threads
~ EV'd / IV'd trade threads
~ "I have event Pokemon" trade threads
~ 'Items can be found here' threads
~ respected by the respected

Considering this rule of thread limitation per person, a "directory" may aid in tracking. I know I wouldn't want a dozen pages worth of one persons threads to be my fault.
 
The problem with that is, most people who open threads tend to be in more than 1 of those categories. It's difficult to sort out threads because of that. The only way I can think of is to have people state what is their main focus on the top of their threads.
 
may i sugest that people opening up shops with EVd pokes or bred pokes are any pokemon besides events unless that event has valuable IVs, that they should post the pokes IVs? it kinda helps others grasp and understanding at first glance instead of multiple questioning?

OMG YES!!!! It should be a rule for you to post all IV's!!!!!! Not only will it tell you if the poks is hacked or not (ie some Iv combinations for legendaries are illegal, which means there hacked) And on smogon this is a rule. I know this isnt Smogon but you should still have to list all IV's!!!! I do!

What about those that run breeding shops? I run one and I have less than 15 pokes actually listed. Should exceptions be made to such a shop?

Of course that could cause an issue with people opening up breeding shops that really are worthless and junk for spam, so perhaps there should be some guidelines? Any ideas?
