was literally just looking for a photo for the Shima longtail to show someone, and found this

excuse me while I melon baller my eyes out

[csmorelikebs]

it's late-o-thirty and i crave your petty drama, send me asks/trades/rants/etc.

goddamn I miss the TRT

"it's bullying" Nah it was fucking cathartic, sent me your trade rants PLEASE I live for the salt

these dumbass advent trades have me reeling, people asking for my old rares and offering like 3 C$ and a common

c$ aren't worth shit, nobody wants them

[csmorelikebs]

oh look they suddenly remembered that kwanzaa exists for the first time in thirteen fucking years

[csmorelikebs]

I miss the days where:

1) Your trade rules had to be legible, not eye-bleeding colors or size 3 fonts.

2) You LOCKED YOUR FUCKING NFT GROUPS.

3) You left a fucking trade message or it cmgot canceled, no questions asked.

4) USD art sales weren't allowed.

5) C$ and rares list weren't the only thing anyone accepted for art, regardless of the quality.

6) Ninjas were publicly shamed, instead of everyone having to resort to taking advantage of newbies to get anything even semi-valuable.

7) Paperclip trading meant FAIRLY trading your way up the rarity chain, trading for pets a few months older until you got one old enough to trade for the next rarity up on a newer pet (i.e., got an old enough Uncommon to trade for a current Rare), instead of people asking you to trade a Rare for their Very Common rat because they're "doing the paperclip challenge".

8) Where everyone and their mother didn't have wishlist-locked trade groups filled to the brim with Uncommon and below, but their wishlist is EXCLUSIVELY Very Rare and above.

Honestly I don't even know why I'm here anymore, tbh

can't wait for more ur items this year so everyone can spend 3+ nons in the first three hours then afterwards everyone decides they're worth 0.25-0.5 nons, but people are till stuck on wanting 3+ nons for them because the economy of chicken smoothie was made by a drunk monkey clacking two clamshells together

found a potential scam trader, username ~Kris~

proof, if you want it:

(^ aforementioned new user asking whether the trade is fair or not, they accepted their trade which is fine and their choice, but this is still an example)

(^ a trade sent to a friend of mine, advised them not to accept due to the unfairness.)

They offered recent pets (no rares) for my friend’s December 18 pet, though my friend declined to trade their pet. I checked Kris's pet group “(ungrouped pets)” and they have many other Dec 18 pets, most of which they received from other new players, one of which is linked above.

They've been on CS since 2011, so there's very little reason why they wouldn't be aware of rarities or at least Dec 18 and ninja trading.

I mean I don't even know what a pet list is and how a pet gets in there

usually it's referring to the "rares' list" or to "horror's list" (which is basically the rares' list after the rares' list was discontinued, but people aren't mad about this one for some reason????)

basically just a list of pets based on what we know of their rarity coupled with their trading demand (though, we will never know any true rarities (like, exactly how many of a pet exist on the site) because nick and tess REFUSE to release that info (they want us to create our own economy, which means 400000 different values for the same pet depending on who you ask)

[csmorelikebs]

i think the only reason that puts me outside of this hellhole of trading is bc I don't have valuable pets to trade for and idk how ppl get it

I'm actually pretty glad for it. since I was a young girl, I knew I didn't wanted rare things (not only for the meme but that's also something real about me)

people get rare pets by trading stuff from flight rising and wajas, or by having old and valuable trade fodder on cs itself. or you get people making new accounts pretending to be brand new players, getting super rare gifts, and then slowly siphoning them towards their main accounts and flying under the radar.

also, by using C$

it always kills me that everyones dreamies are like, the same super-rare pets tbh. like okay you totally want the dragon cat pps because you love it, not because it's hella valuable *eyeroll* i see so many people list valuable pets as dreamies, then trade them away within 24 hours of them being gifted. meanwhile i still have basic dreamies i got gifted years ago stuffed away in locked groups lmao

[csmorelikebs]

which staff are not trustworthy/ninjas? i'd love to know since i can watch out :000

i know bernouli was but i don't think they're on staff anymore? a lot of the staff are well known for ninja-trading, especially around the holidays. just look at any of the ones with extremely rare pet hoards and you usually have a good indication (not 100% of the time, but there are a lot of people with those sorts of hoards that do, staff included)

not including proof because im lazy af but you can find it easily on old cs discourse blogs

[csmorelikebs]

Sorry if this blog isn't active anymore. What's up with the diaper stuff? I've noticed vampiric and sorren fey have created diaper items in the past, and sorrens linked toyhouse has a "diaperific contest" tab on their fursonas page. usually I wouldn't give this any thought but it's always sorren fey or vampiric credited when it comes to diaper items

girl omg WHAT NO WAY

[csmorelikebs]

IT'S A FUCKING RARE (not a response to a bid i placed, i dont need the gacha dogs)

[csmorelikebs]

literally why is this group unlocked

especially when you own an adoption center? the wishlist tab is now full of fucking hamsters thanks

[csmorelikebs]

aaron is absolute a ninja trader. half the staff are chronic hoaders. anyone with a huge adoption center of over 2k pets is absolutely skimming pets for themselves cs is rotted from the core and should just stop pretending to be for children/family friendly most of the 'new' accounts are just made to be able to shuttle rares around and make themselves look poor so they can trade vrs and up back to their mains

oh 100%

I've seen so many accounts saying, "I'm new! sorry if I trade unfair lol" that are literally 2 weeks old- yet have incredibly concise trade rules, lists of specific dreamies (that are all ER and OMGSR), groups of List pets. like.... excuse me? You're new, go out of your way to say so in your signature, trade thread, trade rules, and player bio- yet know and understand all of that, and have dreamies already????? Yet, at the same time, don't have any clear connections to existing accounts, like most actual newbies do??? (like, xyz is my sister! we trade a lot, they send me gifts since I'm new, plz don't ban- that kind of thing)

The site has become 100% "pay to win". You either need to pour tons of money into C$ or FR Gems to get what you want, or scam people. It fucking sucks.

Also, yeah, loads of staff and big name players are known ninjas and don't even hide it. I wish ninja trading was considered scamming, but it never will be because the staff fucking benefits from it too much.

[csmorelikebs]

this isn't "Ninja-ing", this is literally scamming.

You knowingly lied and mislead. If he reported you, you WOULD be banned and the trade WOULD be reversed.

Wow you're a cunt.

AITA for scamming my ex out of an extremely valuable virtual pet?

🐓🥤to recognize. This might be a very long post with a lot of added context for a very niche hobby and a very small actual conflict.

I religiously play a virtual pet site called Chicken Smoothie. It's a pretty old site as far as virtual pet games go, starting back in 2008, so there is a pretty solid established site economy. Just for some context, Every pet on the site has a rarity, ranging from "OMG So Common" to "OMG So Rare", being the most common and most rare respectively. But there are rarities within those rarities, where some OMGSRs can be worth more than others based on species and demand. For example, an OMGSR dog from 2008 will be worth more than an OMGSR rat from 2008 despite being the same highest rarity and year, because people prefer the dogs over rats. These pets can get extremely valuable. You can't sell them for real money (according to site rules, but of course there's a black market), but the site has its own virtual currency you can buy (with real money) and trade for called Chicken Dollars, and you can also trade a valuable pet for other valuable pets. It gets very complicated, with the community coming up with its own set of value terms each pet can have. I'm not getting into specifics there, that's not important.

Every year, on December 18th, CS has gift boxes you can adopt from. These gift boxes can contain any rare pet from any previous year, including special "Unreleased pets" that you can only get from these Dec 18th boxes, with a very slim chance. These unreleased pets are some of the most valuable and rarest in the game.

Recently, I had seen my ex posting on the forums. I didn't know he had an account, he had made it within this year, long after I got the fuck away from him, and I only knew it was him because he uses the same username everywhere. This person had groomed me, physically abused me when we were together (we no longer live anywhere near each other, thankfully) and has always been emotionally manipulative. He does not know I play, and he wouldn't recognize my account as me. I took a note of his account and left it be for a while, until December 18th hit and I took a peek at what he had got. And what he got was one of the new Unreleased pets, which currently at the time of writing this only looks like a box of cereal. (Most pets on the site have growth stages.) And even better, all his groups were open for trade, so I took a chance and sent an extremely terrible trade. I told him that this pet would only be a recent rare, and I offered him a "Very Rare" rarity (but not very valuable) pet from 2018, telling him I was overpaying. (In the CS community, this is known as Ninjaing, and it's Not A Good Thing To Do). I didn't expect him to accept it, I at least thought he'd be smart enough to ask in the trade advice thread that is literally pinned on the home page for December 18th, but he didn't. He took my word for it and accepted the trade, and now I own an unreleased pet that will eventually end up as an OMGSR.

What I did was not a bannable offence. He will not get his unreleased pet back. The CS mods are laughable at worst, incompetent at best, and don't do anything to stop scamming. They have an "eh, sucks to be you, sorry, be smarter next time" mentality when people get scammed (Which is insane because there are literal single digit aged children allowed on this site!!!)

After taking a bit to think about it, I do feel a bit guilty because I really would not do this in any other circumstances. I hate scamming. I did what I did out of anger and contempt, and I do feel a bit guilty because in essence, I scammed a new player that didn't have much else and didn't know any better.

I'm still keeping that unreleased cereal box no matter what though

What are these acronyms?

[csmorelikebs]

oh my fucking God if it's not for trade LOCK THE FUCKING GROUP! why has it become the norm to leave your groups all unlocked and then get pissed when people offer?????

[csmorelikebs]

holy shit that person is gonna regret this in three weeks

also, wow, you're a fucking dick for no reason, dude

imagine getting them for a couple chicken bux and then exclusively reselling them for this sort of shit

you're the reason i fucking hate this game

[csmorelikebs]

It kills me how everyone has the same dreamies, and how so many people get GIFTED their ultra-rare dreamies by kind folks, but then just trade them away.

No, that isn't your dreamie, you wanted to beg for a valuable pet and guilt people into gifting it/undercharging for it.
