I don't understand why people do this, and why apparently leaving a mail or comment is so difficult. If you're on the phone and you can't mail/comment, then don't contact anyone about trading or selling.

I've had this happened to me three times. All of them involved lots worth over 200 million. Needless to say, none of these people got what they wanted, except for my disapproval. =/

Please do not do this or you will be hated by everyone.

I don't consider people making junk offers on lots worth over 200 million just to tell me to mail them funny, but if you do, please enlighten me, so I can understand why people do this. =/

Don't try to speak for everyone. If some makes an offer I don't like it takes 2 deconds to click reject.

Also does this count as targetting since the comments are on Tumblr and still findable in his comments?

You seem to be missing my point. It takes two seconds to mail/comment someone. I don't see how making a junk offer with MAIL ME is any easier than simply mailing/commenting. I didn't list any specific names, and this was meant as more of a general rant.

I can't lock a thread based on things on tumblr, but if anyone feels targeted they are welcome to file a ticket

Then put a price on your lot and say it's firm. If you know what it's worth and what you want, there's no point in asking for offers - just say what you're looking for. And if people still do it, it's not that hard to hit the decline button and block them if it really irks you that much.

That's the problem. I am quite flexible with what I want and like, thousands of other users, I prefer people to make offers because I am open. Like you said, if a person knows how much an item is worth, then there's no point of asking how much I want and they can make an educated offer with little to no hassle. But, again, you're not understanding my point. If it were just a plain junk offer, I would have no problem just rejecting it. That is not what I'm ranting about though. I just don't understand why someone would make an offer just to tell me to mail them when they could have just easily mailed or commented me. I have had three replies to this, and no one has offered an explanation as to why someone would do this and think it's a good idea.

Idk, I wouldn't care since I can just reject it and move on or take the few seconds to mail them. Not really anything to get all bent out of shape over.

Idk if I'd actually hate the people over it.. I'd just let their crap rot or reject it and move on with my life? And yeah, I've had some 250m/500m weapons in my trades for a while and yeah if someone offered me junk with a message I'd... ignore them?

While it's annoying, especially since trades and phones aren't exactly hip with one another so I don't see how offering junk on a lot is any easier than just contacting the person, I don't think it's that big of a deal. I mean if anything, just block the people and they won't be able to offer you any more junk?

... or people found these kinda reactions exist via tumblr and those people are now being trolls to get a reaction out of offering junk. If that be the case, they're succeeding.

Thank you for your insight, but you guys have not said anything that the others haven't said. I still don't understand why people do this and think it's an actual good idea. Can someone please explain to me why someone would do this and think it's a good idea? I do not need another person telling me to just block them.

Probably because you bark at people who said nothing wrong to you, if I had to take a guess.

I never even knew people actually used junk offers to prompt others to mail them. That sounds really weird to me. From experience, I can say that it is easier to mail a person on a mobile device than it is to offer on a trade, so the whole mobile thing makes no sense to me actually. IDK how common junk offers are on this site as I rarely use the trading center outside of arranged trades and item loaning purposes, but I don't think I will ever understand that trend.

???????????? wait since when is this considered harassing someone??? if someone was doing it repeatedly, i could see how this is could be considered harassment, i suppose, but if someone just did it once, i would just decline or message them and move on.

The only one that ever gets harassed/targeted is the user that makes the mistake of contacting you to begin with,People can't even ask you what you want through smail without you finding a way to make yourself into the victim when that couldn't be further from the truth.

Maybe they wanted you to mail them first so that you could just tell them offhand what you wanted/if haggling is possible, Rather than asking you first and having you leap down their throat about it.

I mean holy shit if people can't ask you to mail them,can't ask how much you want for something,or can't ask you anything without you getting your underwear in a wad then what the fuck are we supposed to do?!

I am honestly surprised that no one has filed a ticket about being targeted yet considering you constantly treat people like dirt over the slightest attempt that is made to try and deal with you in a friendly manner. You act like we should bow down and kiss your feet because you have all the stuffs,You know what? Fuck that and fuck you for thinking it too.

If this doesn't explain it good enough let me get some others to help me out.

Can you lovelies help me explain?

My guess would be that they are hoping you would accept the offer by accident. I have no idea if successful if that could count as scamming or not and you would be able to get your item back.

I was thinking the same.

Seriously I don't get why this is such a big deal. Just reject the junk offer and move on, if they do it again message them or block them.

Personally, I hate sellers who are all OFFER and bitch when the "offer" is not high enough

Sorry, what are we? Psychics? Who should know exactly how you want.

The trade message is literally "mail me". Intention is pretty clear to me, and if I see MAIL ME, I'm going to mail them.

People are often on the REALLY AWFUL version of the site, so they want to get the lot but might not have the time to access the vault because again, the mobile site is terribad.
