gollark: Yay, a cheese!
gollark: It's totally my business to impose constraints on stuff I'm giving away. Yes, strictly speaking, they *can* just trade it away, but if I notice that they are absolutely not getting gifts again. Never happens to me, though, since I mostly gift 2G whatevers and the occasional uncommon CB.
gollark: I generally treat trades as "well, this is trading, if I can make use of arbitrage then who cares" and gifts as "must stay on my own scroll unless they specify otherwise".
gollark: Hmm, looks like I'll try and codehunt then.
gollark: Along with winter magi and garlands.
