Also, C$ purchases are completely just for fun and not required to enjoy the game. I've seen the sentiment that we as purchasers of C$ are owed some kind of explanation of how they spend the money and that's not how it works. We got what we bought, and what they do with that money is up to them.
It's completely normal to keep financials private and we aren't owed knowing about it.[/quote]I think like any financial investment, where the money goes into the site can be important if a person is worried about how their money is being used. There could be a disclaimer placed in the site that pops up whenever a user purchases C$ from the website.
Perhaps Website Pop-Up wrote:'Users are to keep in mind that all money spent on this site is used for anything that the moderators and/or artists find necessary. This can range from frivolity to keeping the site running! Thank you for your contribution.'
Something like that.
On a side note that could be seen as...pedantic? I think that purchases are necessary to enjoy any game. It's like skins that a person has to pay for in a game they already paid full price for. The skins are there for the enjoyment and personalization of a gamer. This website is kinda the same, in my eyes. Here are some reasons why.
Some pets should cost money:
-Because the site is free
-Because artists should be paid
-Because lots of enjoyment is had from having the non-free pets and dressing them up

Is spending money literally necessary to have a good time? No. There are probably some users who[m] have spent no money, and are totally fine with everything they have. It also helps that C$ is easily traded between users without anyone paying anything towards the website. But some purchasing is required to enjoy some aspects of any game, including this one. Skins in Fortnite, or dress-up clothing on Chicken Smoothie wouldn't sell unless someone was enjoying them.
Do I want to know what the money I might spend on this site is being used for? Not really. I know that there is some "risk" in investing in any fun activity. But I can see why people would want to know.
