GTS Suggstion
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Implemented → GTS SuggstionSometimes people offer on trades that are there for one specific person. Or other times you might offer on one trade that sits there for a long time and, unless you remember to withdraw, your pokémon is blocked from being offered on other trades that you would want to take in case the original one doesn't work out. If the person who set the trade up could reject offers, you wouldn't be left to wait and wonder in as many cases as now.
Missing plushies: Please use the list at the bottom of my collection page.
I support. I can't tell you how many times when I was specific about what I wanted in a trades comment and most of the offers I get have nothing to with, much less anywhere meet, the description of what I am wanting in return for pokemon.
I do feel bad when I don't like someone's offer on a trade I have up. However, it irks me when someone blatantly ignores a trades comment. If they would like to offer something the comment doesn't mention, by courtesy ask in a pm since there is no decline button. Which comes to what has already been mentioned.
Unless you are messaged by the trade creator, or you message them to ask, you won't know if your offer is being considered or has no chance of being accepted. So if neither message, that pokemon is left sitting there.
On the side of someone offering, I would like if the trade creator could decline my offer. From there I could choose to offer something else, right away, or leave that trade alone.
On the side of a trade creator, I would love to be able to decline offers that I will not be accepting. Especially those what have ignored/didn't pay attention to a trade's comment. Most of the time, no one messages me, and I tire of messaging others telling them that they can cancel their offer because it wont be accepted for whatever reason. Which itself takes time away from me for other site activities.

Once again the trade description is being completely ignored. It's not a pokemon I need nor was asking for. And no courtesy of a message asking before they offered.
Some Times When I Do Best Offer Trades I Get Offered Every Thing But Some Thing Good And I Need (Not All Are Bad Offers Just Most Are)
It's like just because it says "Radiant Rayquaza Hunt" doesn't mean flood me with absolute JUNK offers... If I could reject, I'd feel a little better, since it lessens the risk of me accidentally clicking the wrong accept button when I finally get the correct offer placed on it. (I do trades and stuff when I'm half-asleep at times, since I know other people don't live on the site, lol)
As no one's said anything, it's also frustrating from an offerer's point of view. I've got two rather valuable Pokémon offered on two different trades. I have no idea if the person just hasn't got to their trades yet, or if they don't want my Pokémon. I probably won't know until that person decides to withdraw or accept another offer (or mine, if the case may be).
As for PMing, I'm not the most social and I really wouldn't want to have to write a PM telling the person I don't want to accept their offer, neither would I want anyone else to write me one. A simple "Decline" button is a much easier and quicker way of just telling someone "No thank you"
SO OVERALL I GIVE THIS TWO THUMBS UP!! (Y) (Y)
