I have a total of 3 DualShock 3s for my PS3. I have 1 white one that I've been using since January and 2 black ones I bought back in 2009. Now, I have not used either black one in roughly 5 months and they were in a shoe box with some other random PS3 things the whole time until earlier today.
I take the controllers out and both of them, BOTH OF THEM (!), have this strange sticky, oily residue on the analog sticks. ONLY THE ANALOG STICKS.
These controllers were perfect when I put them away and I cleaned them every now and then when I was using them regularly. I turned to google looking for answers and it seems that other people have had similar problems (threads on official PS forum, gameFAQ, IGN) but noone can give a good answer as to why other than "lel you must fap when you play vidya games."
Does anyone know what the hell is wrong here? Is it a humidity issue? It seems like my white controller is fine and I use that everyday.
