Naturally, many fans were not happy to hear that the Avatar pose would be forcibly removed from their accounts, despite being the developer’s mistake.
“Why don’t you let us have nice things when it is your mistake,” asked one trainer.
Another said, “Yall really accidentally gave us it for free, then you’re going to take it away from us, then sell it right back to us later on.”
