It also means that while we shouldn’t call others jerks, we should also have forgiveness for those who make mistakes. We’re human, and sure, Yum might have gotten scammed, but as long as there’s no going back, there’s no use in getting worked up over pixels that weren’t necessarily ensured to be yours in the first place.

@Eilish - I can understand why you’re mad, but being mad at Yum when there’s nothing than can be done to help the situation is pointless. You had privilege to receive the prize, not a right, and maybe Yum should have reserved the prize, but we’re human and we all make mistakes. Yum apologized and did their best to make up for it, and like others said, we should appreciate that effort.

@Others - I know that you’re all mad at Eilish, but calling her a jerk/stupid just puts fire to the flame. Or fuel to the fire? Idk XD, but I just mean that it escalates the situation, even though you’re trying to defend Yum. I suppose we could all grow up when it comes to learning how to handle disputes like these.

The point at which we call a mod is when one side is trying to de escalate the situation and the other is refusing to, not when both sides are using harsh words and are unable to reach a compromise. When that happens, we should all be mature enough to handle and if we’re not, it’s best that we close the thread to avoid further drama and move on. And yes, I’m aware I’m being somewhat of a hypocrite. i believe it's fuel to the fire.
