I just wanted to ask you guys to please be kind on your replies to potential traders. I helped my little 11-year-old brother set up an account on PinPics a couple of days ago, and we're both beginning to regret it. He has gotten some pretty mean e-mails concerning his offers, and it's very disheartening for him. He (and probably other younger kids) doesn't know the difference between 'open stock' and 'service' etc, etc. He simply offers what he has (which is not much) for what he wants. (And some of them ARE great pins come to think of it! LOL!) In any case, I don't think anyone, young or old, deserves some of the e-mails he has received, and I hope no one else gets those types of e-mails. I just wanted to let everyone know that there are younger kids on PinPics as well. So if you receive a rediculous request (which may very well be from my brother!!) please don't be mean. It's probably just a child, trying to simply have fun and meet new people. And to tell you guys the truth, I think there are quite a few people on here who would gladly agree on a rediculous trade, just to make someone happy. I know I have my very own Pin Fairy who sent me a BEAUTIFUL pin from DCA 'just because'. (You know who you are!!) I didn't mean for this to be such a long post, I just wanted to 'warn' everyone about the silly children on PinPics.
Good night, sleep tight!!
