This becomes a real problem every few whiles.
A couple days ago Charm sold a Confetti to a new breeder who had purchased a very pretty (non-Confetti) cat from someone else.
Unfortunately, the new breeder believed the claim in the name 'Confetti Background' actually meant there was a chance Confetti would appear. And, yes, checking the parents, one WAS a Confetti. So the claim was, technically, true, it lead to the false impression that the Confetti background actually meant anything.
When talking to her, Charm, became aware the new person had been defrauded. So, she took pity on her and gave her another, older, Confetti to breed with the one she'd just sold. Hopefully, that will offset the ill feelings being new and immediately defrauded would engender.
Now, you can give people the benefit of the doubt and presume it was lack of knowledge, or a simple misunderstanding. But it happens so often, especially with certain players, that it really can't be that. It's FRAUD, people. So let's stop dancing around and call it that.
