Oh Wise One
It is funny. I came here today to start a Cross Tier thread. It has been a while since we discussed it.
Here are my thoughts. Some of which will be repeats of other folks, but my thoughts are always worth inserting.
First.
Cross Trading definitely has its place. It can be a necessity for newer players who need T2 or T3 goods but aren't yet producing enough.
Second
I think we all agree that Inno's idea of fair trades is ridiculous.
IF I post a cross trade I tend to be generous.
Say, 10,000 scroll for 5000 Gem.
But then I am always flush with T1 and T2. My usual offerings would be like 11000 Steel for 10000 Plank.
Third
As someone else mentioned. If you are the type of person who thinks Inno's idea of fair is correct. And you think I should be glad to give you 16000 Steel for your 1000 Elixirs, why do I never see you offering 16000 planks for my 1000 Dust. I'll take those all day. Well, actually, I'd only be able to take it 500 or 600 times, but still, bring it on.
In conclusion and confusion
I'm not a fan of cross trades. ESPECIALLY not T3 : T1. I will mostly ignore them.
I make some exceptions for FS members and small neighbors who probably need the help.
PS
I'd really love to tag one of my neighbors who is I know reads the forum. But I'll let it go.

Didn't notice this post before.
It can also be said that if you are bothered by the existence of a thread and have nothing to add to the discussion, ignore it. Same principle. Change the channel. Turn off the TV. Strangle the bunny. Take the horse for a walk. Read a book. Throw asparagus at a mime.
ummm
I may have gotten off track there

Bottom of the barrel if you don't like cross tier trades don't take them,
