Skye's Lucky Penny?

You know, not everything staff does has to go through us first for it to be a final decision. They probably thought maybe some people wanted to sell it for credits and some people have made the choice to do so. Getting all uptight over it is completely a waste of time. In the end, the pin will be deleted anyways so why argue?
I disagree with a lot of things staff does, but if you can't see the logic behind players being able to sell their pins then there really is no reasoning with you.
For the most part, the lucky penny pixels were given to people who actively sought out Skye to hang out and see how she was doing. So people who felt close with her visited and received pixels.
The situation escalated, with the help of staff, by them trying to make Skye's "last days" special and magical. The pin was made.
Skye was found to be a fraud. Simply a falsehood that tugged on many players' hearts. The players who actively sought out the company of Skye were left with a pin to remember her by, but it is now tainted with malice and deceit.
The staff probably feel bad, because they did bring quite a lot of attention to Skye, aiding in the emotional connection people had to her, and they now offer the players who were directly bamboozled (by Skye with promotion from staff) the option to sell the pin. The 5k is simply a "sorry we accidentally aided in the glorification of skye, hopefully this can make up for it a little."
Like come on. Why are people SO amped about 5k? There is an obvious reason for it. Just like staff would help someone get items back for being scammed, they're giving the option of receiving 5k to the people who sought to help, but ultimately were emotionally scammed by "skyeviolet."
I won't be posting further on this topic.

Feel like this thread just going in circles and the same things just getting repeated by both sides. the fact of the matter is whats done is done. Yes the staff should of said additionally to the poll the pin is now sellable or not make the pin sellable at all. It not the greatest reason like it or not but the reason why they make 5k is because they like how the community came together for this person. Should it have happen and was it fair, Probably not.
P.s Thanks Abs for actually replying to this thread a few times for some it was not most satisfying but it was better then nothing.
