Not to mention, well.. I'm sittin there siftin through people trying to maybe find a soldier hat for my Gatsby. Oh! this guys offering a Drill Hat! oh wait he's not online.. Oh cool! This guy's going to give me a tyrants helm! oh wait this guys not online.. Oh sweet! This guys going to give me a Stash for it! OH WAIT HE FUCKING TRADED IT It pisses me off so much when they're not online or have traded it. When I do find people who are actually online, they're idiots.
[QUOTE=EpikEnvy2.0;25218843] Hats are even worse. People demanding up to five different ones for a single one. [/QUOTE] Or maybe they only want one of those hats?
I tried all night on trade servers "Junkboy: Trading heavys hound dog, scouts troublemaker's tossle capand 3 Mann co crates for grenadier soft cap" "Junkboy: Don't trade me unless you are trading your soft cap" Rangewarrior wants to trade with you[accept] your now trading with Rangewarrior Rangewarrior:Hey Junkboy:Do you have the soft cap Rangewarrior: lol no wat you want for your hound dog? You have canceled your trade with Rangewarrior
[QUOTE=slapdown3;25222487]Rangewarrior: lol no wat you want for your hound dog?[/QUOTE] Oh God people like those make me mad as all Hell.
I only trade single hats for single hats, and I traded my crate for a level 3 metal.
If you have Earbuds, try putting them up for trade. They're going like hot cakes.
Crates ain't worth shit anymore. Everyone has em. What's the currecny now is Refined Metal, holy shit i can get anything i want with one. I got what, 7 Refined Metals in my backpack and people are begging for them, promising 4 hats and shit. :wtc:

There was a guy who gave me his fedora because of all of these terrible trades. He went crazy and just gave it to me. Remember kids, always be on a raging guys side.
I would try trading weapons for weapons, if I could actually find someone who wasn't so buttfuckingly obsessed with hats. Its a damn weapon, I shouldn't have to trade 5 weapons and 6 hats just for a single weapon from the update.

My solution is to actually discuss trades beforehand, avoid TF2items, and trade with your friends.
i dislike how you can only request hats for hats. I have a Fedora i dont want, but would like 2 (or maybe even 3) keys for it, but i cant specify item requests or quantities on the site :'(
Skellyhell, you can't trade keys.
[QUOTE=GetBent;25224812]Skellyhell, you can't trade keys.[/QUOTE] Well there goes my plans :'(
I'm not sure which I find more annoying: That everyone with paint wants several hats, or that I can't play Engy or Scout anymore without a trade request popping up seconds after I switch to my Lugermorph.

It's not like trying to trade in regular means is any better, maybe by just a bit but it can be bad.
"I think I'll mark every item on the list as a compatible trade offer so I get tons of requests."
I had a bad luck on TF2items, too and then I found one really kind guy who gave me Fedora for Tricorne :love:
The people is crazy Now there are hat farmers yesterday I was going to trade a napper respite for a hound dog and "No,I only want hats thast I can trade Easily" thath guy traded a milkman for 5 hats,for the love of cthulhu,2 old hats for a new one It's ok but 4-5 hats for a new one!? Trading was supposed to trade 1 hat that you don't want for a hat that you wan't,not for people who thinks that this is a MMORPG and farm items Yesterday I was going to give up,then a guy added me,He wanted the napper respite,he had a hound dog,Now I'm happy to know there are people who wants to trade 1 hat that they want for another aht that they don't want
I wanted the Nappers Respite. Everyone on TF2 Items was all "3-4 HATS BECAUSE IT'S NEW", that happened about 7 times (in roughly half an hour) Luckily enough, on a mario kart map some guy asked me "Hey, can I have your Vintage Merryweather? I have one of those new pyro hats". <3 He'd wanted a Merryweather ever since it came out, so it felt good trading with that person instead of some random jerk.
Most of the new hats are pretty shitty. I have my perfect hat collection right now, and none of them are the new hats. Hell, two of them (the Stash & Mining light) are the original hats. It it just because they're new that people are being silly and trading several hats for them, or do they have a genuine like for a stupid Dr. Seuss hat or a stupidly unfitting Chief feather hat?
[QUOTE=HyperTails;25218954]Pokemon wifi centre is about as worse as this. As I expected.[/QUOTE] Oh god, this. Wi-Fi trading is a nightmare. What's that? You want a Charmander? YOU MUST TRADE MEW.
[QUOTE=macdoo999;25219077]yeah: "OMG LVL 99 MEW FOR MY CHRMANDER-LOLOOOLO NUBS" sums it up appropriatley.[/QUOTE] One time I put up a Rattata holding a TM so I can use a glitch to clone the Rattata (and the TM). I asked for a Level 9 Mew, and someone actually accepted it. :colbert:
I think anyone smart enough will realize that patience is the key. Of course new hats will command higher asking prices, but as time goes on, we'll see more of them being crafted and then there won't be any of this "I want 8 hats for my Chieftan" business. At least until the next hat release.
Trading is bullshit anyway, all the fucking servers are filled with trading AFKers, stopped playing TF2 until they do something about it.
At one point, before Trading dropped, there were literally dozens of people "willing" to trade their Bill's Hat for my Gibus or their Refined Metal for my Reclaimed.
I had one guy on a server I was on that kept spamming me with trade requests. I'd accept the request, he'd ask for an item I didn't have in incredibly broken English that I had to ask about several times, and I'd tell him I didn't have it. He'd break off the trade and, I guess, look through the Mann Co. Catalog for another item he wanted. I finally got enough of it and went over the mic and suggested he ask before starting the trade about the item, to see if I had it. I didn't get another trade request.
