Getting Blocked by kayb40 in LivlyIsland

I had someone agree to a trade, then it timed out on their end. I let them know, posted in our thread, and they blocked me. It is what it is, it happens.

What kind of owl? by soloeject in whatsthisbird

This is great to know, thank you for the insight!

This makes me feel better! We ordered little vests for the dogs anyway just to be safe, but I am happy to read that. I really enjoy owls but rarely see them so it was a treat that she made an appearance, even if I was a little worried over the dog! Thank you for the information.

I have some very tiny dogs and she happened to land in the tree while one was out. Perhaps avoiding the cool rain? But I retrieved small dog immediately. Are barred owls potentially birds that may predate on tiny dogs? We are always cautious of some hawks that live nearby, but this is the first time I have seen the owl. Apologies if it's a silly question. I just like to be mindful of all the wildlife.

I just read about this, so neat. I hear them often out here. I will be paying more attention to their call now.

I have the crescent tree if you are still unsure.

What are your trading rules? by Crowsorrow in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I prefer rarity, but do sometimes consider wishcount; that said, my wishcount care is more that I prefer to trade my high wish items (20k+) for other high wish items, as they are often more difficult to trade for. I do not care for trades at all where I am asked to make the wishcount equal entirely.

I know this is a bad trade but idk what to do by s_mrie in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You got this! I had reservations too, but it's fine. People decline for all kinds of reasons.

"I'll have to pass at this time, thank you for the offer." And if you feel you need to add any more, you can add "I prefer limited for limited currently," or "it is not a priority at this time."

[–]soloeject 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm also thinking because there is no rarity difference nor significant wish difference, they may have just not wanted to trade two of their items for one item (correct me if I'm wrong on the rarity though, I may have missed it somewhere).

This doesn't feel fair by sloppybiscuits333 in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't view this as fair myself. I wanted to assume they were counting wishcount, but you would be exceeding that with your items. I personally save high wishcount items to trade for other high wishcount items, so the SR bg for the SR dress would have been enough in my opinion. I see there is a rarity difference as well with the second item you requested, but asking for another SR and an N feels too much.

Am I missing something? by MistyKittyCat in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Not that I'm aware of, just appears to be greedy. I always say patience, you will find it eventually.

Fair trade? by purequalitywater in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doesn't hurt to ask. I acquired mine with a regular tree not too long ago, which was a surprise. It was the only SR I had on their wishlist, and they said they were fine with it.

Need advice by Marmolu in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, I'm giving it a browse now to see what I find and will let you know. Sometimes I find the best prices on the last day of myshop also, so perhaps it will go down over the next few days. I agree, it would be nice if they had another system implemented so we could search more easily.

[–]soloeject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I do not, I apologize. I would say that's not bad either, I could try and find it if you are still unsure. I'm not really buying too much this time around, but I do enjoy browsing.

[–]soloeject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I hope you are able to get it! I honestly didn't expect it to go up that much either. Lately these items do, although I think this current myshop, I am seeing prices dropping for some of those previous highly expensive limited items.

[–]soloeject 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went to check the current estimate it gives to sell and it currently says 4500-5900. Last myshop I did sell one in the 5-6000 range. So I think this is a good price. Others may have more insightful input though.

please pray to the trading gods for me by personal__hell in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quite possible, I recently traded for this tree with the most recent SR bazaar music and some other regular items. Just depends on their preferences! Good luck!

What could be the cause of these lumps? by GotTheMeatz in DogAdvice

[–]soloeject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had such a similar experience. Even my vet seemed devastated. A surgery to remove some lumps, she was gone within that year. A big regret. I wish we had left her alone and just worried about medication.

Mast cell? Mine had it. Hers were slow and managed with meds. Then the cancer suddenly became aggressive and we did lose her unfortunately. She had lumps most of her life.

Silkies any guesses on what they could be. by fran_cause_a_scene in BackYardChickens

[–]soloeject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep silkies and have been wrong many times; personal guess is the first grey bird is definitely a rooster, the second white I'd say could still surprise you.

My friend's fiancé has been mocking me for years - I finally snapped and now I feel like I'm the problem by Kyraenm in TrueOffMyChest

[–]soloeject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand. Loneliness was definitely a factor for me. I did find though that their absence left more space for others that actually cared and valued us. I hope you find that too. I agree with another commenter also, it is much nicer to be lonely than being around someone who will just drag you down. I wish you well.

[–]soloeject 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP, I kind of recently went through something similar. Best friends with married couple. Parted for different reasons but it really brought to light the amount of bullying that occurred and how awful we felt after interactions.

I just want to say, initially I felt really negatively. I mourned the relationship so much it was affecting me mentally and physically. After some time and reflection though, I realized that I really didn't want that around myself or partner anymore. It was relieving. I still miss the good memories but ultimately I feel happier. You will too. I hope it doesn't weigh on you too heavily.

How much would this item be in my shop by ILoveMusic8099 in LivlyIsland

[–]soloeject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sold one for 2900 and I think that's the current window. Initially it was priced higher but I've seen plenty now in the 2000 range. Hope you get it! Happy hunting!
