It seems that maybe traders should try to be more informative in regards to their posts/requests...
Let people know to begin with that you are a trader. Nobody likes to be tricked or fooled, whether that is your intention or not. A dumb or naive inviter may feel that way if they invite you somewhere, without looking into your background, only to find out they have invited someone with a trading background into their "tree". Traders, if anyone, are going to look out for each other since that is the only group that, for the most part, care for each other.
There are members like
AdrianPhoto that don't mind to help out a trader and that is commendable since he asks for nothing in return. But to the general non-trading community, inviting someone as yourself can be detrimental (even if it is just a loss of invites).
My message to traders: If there is such a thing, be as honest about your craft as possible. Douche traders (I'm not saying you, the OP, are a douche) give the trader community as a whole a bad name...More so than maybe they deserve. I say this since I had a truly good experience with a trader today...
