Noob doesn't know how to trade

OK, first of all, feel free to make fun of me because of the noobish question...
However, what I'm looking for is information on how to trade creatures...like, how do I find someone who wants my stuff, or how do I find someone who has stuff I want? And then how do you safely do a trade?

You only can trade when you reach lv 20
after that, go to Battle ~> Player Ranking ~> about2punt's wall (1st guy, poor him lol) ~> leave comment here for what you want to sell and what you looking for

Remember to use the trade function instead of gift and while u're on this forum u should learn a thing or two about prices ( [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] ), what monsters are sought after, what monsters are sacrifice material/ used only for skills etc.
Another option (more time consuming) is visiting the Auction House (Auctions), filter by what guild u're looking for and then just stroll through the hundreds of pages until u find something u want but I wouldnt recommend this until u have a better grasp of the value of monsters.

This post attempts to go through all the aspects of trading.

Many players post on the weekly rankings as well. In the game click Menu --> Rankings --> Name/Icon of the 1st place Player. Scroll down to see player advertisements, and leave a trade list of your own. Comments only stay visible for a minute or so because so many people post here.

You can also find players on the forum in the the Trade section. The only way to search players is to type in their ally code in game. Most players here leave their Ally code in their signature. In the game, go to Menu --> Allies. Type in their 10-digit code at the top and click send Invite. This will only work if you and the other player have an available ally space. After the invite is sent, on the Allies page click the "Applying" Tab, and click on the player's icon. This will take you to their profile page, where you can send a trade.

How to actually trade

Sending Trades:

Go to a player's profile page. Click the "Trade" button. Select the monsters and items you would like to offer, and hit the "Offer" button at the top. This takes you to the Confirmation page. Here you can leave a message for the player to see with your offer. Hitting the "OK" button is the final confirmation - this officially sends your trade offer. Wait for the player to send back an offer. When they do, follow the steps under "Completing Trades."

Accepting Trades:

Click on the "Pending Trade Requests" Tab. This will show the player's offer. Click "Accept" to send an offer back. Choose your monsters and items, and "Offer." Click "OK" to confirm. If the other player accepts your trade, you will receive no confirmation. The monsters and items from the trade will be sent to your Gift Box.

Completing Trades:

This step only applies if you initiated the trade (sent the original offer). When you receive an offer back from a player, the trade will be under the "Completed Trades" tab. Review the details of the trade here, and make the final confirmation if satisfied. Monsters and items from the trade go to your Gift Box.

Small Notes / Advice

When sending an Ally Request to trade, you should cancel the request after your trade is sent. This frees up the space for other players to send trades, and is generally considered common courtesy. You can leave a comment on the player's wall so they can reach you if necessary. It may be a good idea to leave a comment anyway, just to inform them that you have sent a trade. Some trades take many hours to complete, and a player may miss that you have sent them a trade request.

When you receive a trade request, hitting the "Back" button while viewing the trade request takes you to the player's profile page. This is a quick way to contact them if necessary.

Always double check your trades and quantities! Especially if you are sending a counter-offer! They may accept it before you realize your mistake.

Using the "Gift" feature to trade is highly discouraged. Do not use this unless you are really sending a gift, or if you really trust the other player. Even then, things happen... and you cannot recover any items lost this way.
