gollark: Because someone suggested prizes-in-market, again.
gollark: ... unless you posted on the thread.
gollark: Don't worry, not *much* of it reaches the discord.
gollark: Hmm, the prizes in market thing is ***HOT*** now.
gollark: Yes, this place is probably nicer, though whether that's due to people just generally agreeing more, actual niceness, or there not being a suggestions channel we shall never know.
