User blog:Vaildated/why do some people recycle items they can't trade?

to me it makes no sense, why recycle it when you could give it away? I've always seen that one jammer that says "TRADE ME OR I'LL RECYCLE IT IN TENT MINUTES" and their trade list has peacock feathers and spike wrists on it. honestly it always bothered me when someone deliberately recycles an item of value lol, you could give it to someone and brighten their day but nope. It's pretty wasteful. I understand if you're quitting and people are begging you for items so you don't give anyone an item. but if you can't trade away an item and recycle it then why?

thoughts? I'm pretty confused and I hope someone clears this up for me lol
