POST ALL TRADE MODULE QUESTIONS HERE

What do the Rules Mean in layman's terms?

Why are people PMing me with offers the first week and asking me to trade when they never give any information about what offers I will have to shell out my pocket or which ones or easier? Why is it against the rules for them to walk me thru any part of the process?

What does you should be able to get 20 offers completed before you start running out of them? HUH? I also seen a post or 2 about people saying that whatever that means?

Read the rules and most of the posts like 6 times, and 50 hours later and a week later still sitting here pretty clueless, wheres the real Help manual?

What is my objective here, to just try to get to TR of 4 and then do my own recruiting AND/OR just scan the trading post and grab the highest Payouts at first to start. I guess I want to start the right way, not just say, ya Im new, and sign up for anything to go Green.

Im just gonna sit here another 8 hours and all my PMs can just wait wait wait, no better yet, see ya tomorrow, im done typing, dont get why people like all this typing, when they have such a thing as Audio IM now. RANT RANT RANT

It is because the sites weren't really made for us , we are innovators, the first to try them. but they were meant for the ''larger'' public sorta speak, who try an offer, then just forget about the site or cannot get the friends they need....that way sites were making profit
and so if someone tells you EXACTLY what offer to do...then it is fraud, as you're supposed to be inTERESTEd in the offer.

and for the 20 offers, there are over 250 different offers. surely you can do 20 sites out of that, especially if you live in the US

If you need help, feel free to ask

I use ie 7 too, at the bottom of the page it always has an error sign
error "newbiewarning content" is undefined" and I haven't been able to leave feedback. I lowered the security and added to trusted sites but still have error

Hi- did you ever get an answer to this? I didn't see one. I'm getting that message also. So far, no problems, but I am not even quite finished with my first trade, so haven't given feedback.
Thanks,
J.

I had the same problem it was Internet Explorer 7!
if you have that that is the problem

what you can do is download firefox and install that right one your computer with IE7, they can run side by side! If you do not want to change your IE7 settings.

just use firefox for doing you link editing then use IE7 for your doing greens so you do not have a problem!

If I have helped you maybe you could toss a little Karma my way?

oops I'm doing a trade with a newbie, who has been changing the drop down in the Trade Module just fine, but if they Request TR and then change it back to Offer Completed, and I Requested TR after they did, and then saw that they changed it back to Offer Completed, will the TR still get credited or should they Request TR again? I hope that makes sense roll Thanks in advance!

You both have to be set to "Request TR" in order to get it. So it sounds like they need to switch back.

Hi-- I had the same frustrating problem until I downloaded firefox and used it as the browser. No problems since then.

I'm negotiating a trade with someone who is on opposite hours from when I am. If I set up a trade and the other person changes his mind, can they just request deletion instead of confirming it?

Can "gone red" be added to the drop down menu in the trade modual?

Why??????

Why??????[/quote6a4241a321]No, wait ... it could actually be brilliant. If there was a "Other Gone Red" or "Other didn't pay" dropdown, then it could be used to maybe alert the mods of a possible scammer, and that in turn could be used to warn the other users of this beloved forum. I could also see how that could be potentially abused, however, but it is definitely an interesting thought, no?

Sure, if it says "Other gone red" or something to that extent. I just couldn't figure out what use "Gone red" would be............

shrug I just assumed that he meant it as "[other] Gone Red". I saw where the confusion was, though ... hence my previous post ). But I do think it could be a useful addition, although I don't think it would be attempted until some of the other upgrades happen.

hello all-

I am using IE7 and took the advice to lower my security settings for the trade module but I am still getting an error message. Any other advice?

Um, newbie question...I made the mistake of agreeing to a trade before having checked out the freebie site, and I find that this site is very difficult to get a credit on. Can I request the trade to be deleted because I feel unable to complete it, and if I can and do, are there negative consequences?

And there isn't any negative consequences in canceling a trade, at least none involved with the site, anyway.

I successfully completed 3 trades with shakamd, we both requested TR's and left our comments, well i viewed his page, my comments are there, and i viewed my page, and his comments for me arent, although my comments for him were posted, we both havent recieved our points. Someone please PM me with whats going on, and these trades were all completed on July 4th, It is now July 7th. Whats Up? PM me please.

@Smallville Were they trades for NoCC sites? And are you both still set to "Requesting TR"?

No, they were trades for regular sites (like trainn), and we're both set to Requesting TR.

It's called patience, folks. The mods all have regular full-time jobs, and we're trying to enjoy the summer just like everyone else. We get to crediting TR when we can.

Ok SERIOUSLY ?

Three things...

1)I have not been able to leave feedback when I change to TR requested. I have tried completely disabling my pop up blocker.. adding FIPG to my safe sites, changing my internet zones etc... NOTHING.

2) I have been waiting on credit for a trade for a few days now.. does it normally take this long?

And also...
3) My last trade I tried to enter my new paypal info and it would not let me.??

oops There is just sooo much to learn LOL

Anyone have any answers?

Thanks guys!

@msloves (and anyone for that matter)

[quote38109788e3="moviemadnessman"]Here are possible solutions.

1. Make FiPG a trusted site.
2. Lower your security settings enough so that you can edit the info. Try medium, and drop as needed.
3. Disable your popup blockers temporarily.
4. Allow cookies.
5. Or my favorite, get and use Firefox http//www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

I hope these help.[/quote38109788e3]

This entire thread is about that very question, and the post directly preceding yours answers it in detail.

I am also inclined to mention lolcats again, but I'm ashamed to perpetuate that meme.

Hmm i was wondering if i could get TR manually credit, since i traded with a user a while back, paid him and he went green and it was a good trade, but his been banned since, and i really wanna build my TR here.

Unfortunately, I don't believe that's a possibility. (

Not possible. I have about 8-10 trades that were completed successfully but the trader never came back and requested TR. When I asked about it, I was told it was impossible because without the other trader's input they have no way of knowing if we completed it or not.

Sorry.

Having a problem getting a trade to go thru ( any help would be great!

Initiated the trade just fine... person did great, fast green, we went to wrap up the trade, and request TR and it says the trade was never confirmed? I get this msg when trying to to request TR

Failed. This happens for a number of reasons. Some of the more common are
-Trade isn't confirmed
-You pressed cancel
-You attempted to edit a variable unassociated with your username.

any suggestions? We've tried this twice now with no success (

It's been answered a couple of times in this very thread.. scroll up

Thanks for the link from the other thread, very helpful!

Is there any offers that can be completed without the need of a credit card using paypal or something like that?

Thanks

I am new to this forum and I have several trades in the trade manger that are set to request TR on both ends. I know that the Mods are very busy, Is there a normal time frame as to when they get credited? Just Curious.

it usually takes 1-3 days i've noticed.

It kept giving me this error when I tried to initiate trade.

Failed. This can happen for several reasons
- You tried to initiate a trade with yourself
- You included a link in the subject (add it later in the "notes" field)
- Your subject was too short. Make it meaningful.

Help!

welll i traded with tanishiaj ( he ddid a green i paid him ) we both requested Tr , we waited a couple of days, and then it got denied
by the i could even enter feedback for him but he could ( it written on my page )

so in the end no tr for both but i still received his feedback

you need to trade with someone who has a TR over 4 to receive TR credit
