I was hesitating due the controversy, but I think what I have to say has to be mentioned.
First, let me state that I did not win a CC or own one for that matter. I am not upset for not winning since I'm really only looking for a single novelty Topre keycap. I'll get one eventually, so there's no hurry. What I do have a problem with is the status quo of the forum policies and moderator involvement with CC sales.
The biggest problem I see here is the fact that immediate reselling of CCs after a raffle is allowed. Why are CCs allowed to be sold immediately after a raffle when it causes so much drama?
Some of the moderators on the forum coincidentally happen to be CC collectors. While there's nothing wrong with collecting, but when you're a moderator and also sell CCs for outrageous prices, you're directly contributing to the drama and allowing it to thrive.
While CC sales would still be entirely possible in private via PMs and other venues, by restricting public sales of CCs, at least immediately after a raffle, a lot of the drama that poisons the forum can be avoided.
