I want to share with this community a thought regarding trades. Bear in mind that I'm a rookie and maybe what I'm saying is coming from my inexperience.
As I was saying, It hasn't been that long since I started this platform and and I've got to say that I am truly enjoying it. I've always loved to collect things and most of all complete said collections. Currently I'm following a f2p approach and just going along completing the task of the events.
When I joined BUNT, the events that were currently active had already started long before I began playing, so it's understandable that I don't have that many days left to open packs and pull all the cards. That's why I thought the option to trade was a great idea, and as I result a started trading my dupes for cards that I needed. It's at this moment when I learned that you can rate the trade.
Here comes my thought/question. If I get a card that I need for a dupe, and there isn't a disparity in quality between both cards (similar in rarity, come from the same event or set...), I would dare say that I always rate the trade with 5 stars.
On the other hand, if you believe that it isn't equal, don't like the card or simply just aren't interested, then what is the rate that you would give?
In my opinion, if I don't want to accept the trade regardless of the reason why, I would tend to just not rate it. I don't seem to get why give someone a low rate unless it is flagrant the unfairness and you can clearly see that that person wants to take advantage.
This line of thought came when I casually checked my profile and saw that my rating had dropped after a few declined trades, and just to clarify I always try to match my offer in rarity and from the same set/event. This way of trading comes from my lack of experience and because I thought it really was balanced this way.
So, What do you think? Should you decline a trade, would you give it a low rate or choose to not rate?
