Hey all been using this site since I started fishing but haven't registered until now...so thought I would share my first real fishing fail! I was getting ready to go afk so I didn't apply a lure while fishing in the underbelly, since I really didn't expect to catch anything I was, as habit is, ready to recast my pole soon as I looted the fish, well I saw the rat and the accept/decline message pop up, right as I recast my pole!!!
Well just thought I'd say Hi! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
Ugh, dude I just did the same thing a couple of hours ago after a marathon of fishing for him. Couple that with my 39/40 loss at the STV contest last Sunday (final achievement left for salty) its been a heart-breaking past few days. Lesson learned, in a brutal way. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!@!@!@!@!

Ugh. I'm a Crawdad Box short of Salty, I've gone through four Mr. Pinchys now with no luck. Out tonight, fishing for #5. I catch one, that stupid BOP confirmation pops up, and I accidentally nudge my camera just so... my character turns ever so slightly in place, and the loot window disappears. :(
They really should just make it so you have to hit accept or decline before you lose your catch!
Autoloot and I accept anything and everything ^^
I think it would be sensible to not get the popup if noone else has a chance to get the item e.g. if you are not in a party or everybody else in the party has the item soulbound and it's soulbound.
Anybody tried to suggest something like this on the US UI forum?
BTW another thing that I didn't see documented elsewhere. On my first Mr. Pinchy I was so excited to get him that I just clicked for the wish. I got the "inventory is full" warning and the wish cooldown went up. I checked my mailbox and nothing. So I guess if your bag is full and you are about to get the pet you will lose it if you do not have a bag space. I was hopeful that this wouldn't be the case because the other item wish does get mailed to you if your bags are full.
So check your bags if you wait for the magical crawdad before clicking for the wish.
I ended up getting the pet on my second Mr. Pinchy catch, 4th wish total.
But the Sewer Rat doesn't have the bags full problem. At least not when I caught it, I only had to dump a stack of stinkin' Sewer Carp, pop-up simply kept where it was.
That's true, I probably should have posted this in the crawdad thread :P
