My guess is that not being able to gift event passes, placate items and making it harder to gift cotton/d.fly cuts down on feeding a player goodies that give them a distinct advantage. We have enough of a supporting community here on the wiki that anyone who said the wanted into the top 100 on the event monster list would get flooded with things to get them there... if we could send them.

There was a time period when cotton and d.fly were some of the 'no cost' gifts. I sent out plenty when I noticed it but got few in return. That was gone with the next update and the game is probably better for the change.
