Firn has mentioned that she does not feel comfortable implementing that feature, since you never know when people may come back. It would be unfair to the people who have been here for a long time, but had to leave for awhile for personal reasons. I know I've been gone for a year at a time, and as someone who has been on here for many, many years, I would be DEVASTATED if I came back to an empty Wardrobe. It would disproportionately affect older users, which I doubt Firn would want, since this site wouldn't be where it is today without those original users. ^^;
I bet the same thing would be true for things like Knuffels, Fairy Coins, taken usernames, etc.
While I too wish more people would release their old, rare items from their wardrobes before they leave for good, I think it would be a very unfair feature.
Especially since those users may not be alerted to the change in policy (which was not part of the terms and conditions they signed) before the transfer occurred, which would harbor resentment against Firn and Starkard if those users were to come back.
If such a feature ever was implemented, they would probably have to only have it apply to users who signed up after the change in policy, and would have to change the terms and conditions to reflect the change. So, either way, the old, rare items you are thinking about would never be released. ^^;
Then again, that's just my opinion.

Also, it's not like Firn isn't aware that old items have become very rare. She does introduce some more into circulation from time to time by selling them in the market, after all.

True, she hasn't done that for a while though. First it was TT items and GotQ's, then only GotQ's and now nothing.

I wonder if she stopped because she's busy or if she decided she doesn't want to do that anymore. :mcsad:

Not sure. Though, with all of the new features, items, and events coming out each month, I can't imagine that she's anything but incredibly busy! o.o!!
I don't know how those two keep up with it all!

From what I've seen, there's times that she posts them frequently and other times when she doesn't put them up much. So I'd guess it just depends on how busy she is at any given time.

I don't know how Firn and starkad keep up, either. It makes me sad that this site probably doesn't even pay off. :mcsad:

Yeah I was thinking about this too, the cost for the site must be tremendous - hope they still get a profit from it

I have no idea how they manage to keep it up, but for that only, I love them dearly.

Yeah, it always makes me really sad to see the donation bar so low, since I know that if donations continue to drop they won't be able to keep it online. ; A;
I wish I was employed so that I could donate. Unemployment sucks.
