There is nothing more frustrating than spending the time to gather a long list of coupons someone has requested off your list, to have them not respond back once you have them together. Be respectful of others time. I took time away from my children and family to gather those coupons and it is beyond frustrating to not hear anything back.

I totally agree!

Okay so as I mentionned several times new to trading and do not really like it right now. I am told that every newbie goes through this and I gotta tell you, this learning curb sucks.

Why can't someone reply to SAY: yes or no?????

I have been trying to establish a rating mostly to show that I am not a scamming person. I found that blacklist thread the other day and I am still sick to my stomach thinking about people doing that. Really you need your head checked if you are scamming coupons. There I have said it.

So by trying to establish myself I am sending some ROAKS. Example: someone mentions I would love some of those.. well I have some and I would love for someone to use them. I started off with just sending with kindness and not expect much but it came even less than that not even a thank you. Yeah!!!!

So the last few I requested could you kindly just give me a rating so I can start passing that threashold of doubt and the only ones I did receive was from my first real SC friend that I have made from the beginning. I know it is not required I have asked advice from seasoned SCers and I know sometimes forgotten, I have sent a kind reminder "did you get it?" in a PM and a plain thank you???

And as someone else brought up the other day, I'm sorry I cannot remember your name - how long are you supposed to hold the coupons for? and I read the thread and I read the reasons.

1. But come on a thank you?

2. A reply especially after establishing they are the ones or not? A reply (preferably a polite one (yes-thank, no thank you or I would prefer ... to re-negotiate if you are trading....

3. I haven't started trading (I prefer giving and anyone who has dealt with me knows that. I think my ROAKS are dwindling to a close and we do not need to waste each others' time and do not need to be rude by not replying when we see that you have been on the forum since.

So please on behalf of newbies, seasoned couponers when corresponding for coupons finish what you started and complete the transaction whatever that signifies regarding couponing, from contact to rating and thank yous.

Is there alot of people experiencing this problem. I know I am not the first thinking this and I will not be the last and the seasoned SC'ers are probably going " Oh man I remember those days and glad they are over right?.

Again trying to raise awareness and remind of the basics. Like when people get their liscence and they drive by the rules and then after a while start running yellow lights, tailgating, rolling stop signs.

The moderators are kind enough to give us a voice, a network to get our act together and share and every day I am thankful because we have saved so much. Common courtesy should not have to be a post in my humble opinion. Even less a freggin blacklist.

I am frustrated with those who want your coupons and they have a trade list but with every trade offer, they don't have the coupons they have listed on it. Then you see them on the trade board, trading with the same list! To me that's something beyond disorganized, it's deceitful.

If someone messages you about a trade if you are not interested please message them back and let them know. I find it very frustrating wondering is it a trade or not never to hear from that person. Out of respect for the other person just post not interested so they can continue trying to trade with someone else. Thanks
