I guess it's against the rules for type race, but I'm a fairly generous player. I go out of my way to help newbies by randomly sending them albino radars, specials, and other neat things. If someone says they've been looking for a specific Pokemon in their trainer card, and I have it or have the means to get it for them, I will.
The point of type race, I feel, is coming together as a community and HELPING each other. If I am allowed to send random newbies and people on the site gifts, why can't I do it in our type race thread where it's a public conversation? I want to help people hatch more stuff, not even for the sake of type race itself, but just because it's nice to do. Seeing other people having a good time makes me have a good time. And I feel like that my view here is not unique to me. We want to help newbies get going in the game and stick around!
The point of the thread, I would assume, is that everything is logged there for transparency and accountability, and I have a special spot on the ice thread about pairs and where they are loaned as long as they were posted in the thread. I truthfully thought having the extra information there would be useful if someone decided to take someone's pair or make off with a shelter pass.
If the trade rules are the reason, have them at the top of the TR section of the forums as a pinned post. Require them to be linked into the main body of the post that the leader makes.
I feel this just encourages secret PM transactions instead of keeping it transparent for everyone.
And I feel like being open, honest, and transparent is really important when loaning an item. But if I want to give a gift, it shouldn't feel like a punishment to do so, regardless of where the conversation started.
