Default $1000 giveaway

Every other thread is a giveaway. Why not start a giveaway subforum.

I moved this out of the TECH forum, and into the comments forum. And I'll add that this topic is somewhat frequently discussed.

Buy a star and you could enter the giveaways.Maybe then you wouldn't post up a topic that has been discussed more times than Britney Spears.

I just did a search on Britney Spears and didn't come up with near as many posts as the Giveaway whine

Why does it get discussed so many times? I must not be the only one that thinks the user experience would be improved, By not having to navigate through all the give aways. Buying a star supports the site and keeps it running smooth and fluid. But that would not remove all the commercial / spotlight on the new products coming out camouflaged as giveaways in the TECH section! I am solely suggesting a Make/Model specific Giveaway Thread, SubForum.

Why is it that the people who complain about the giveaways are the ones who dont have the ability to gain anything from them?

Leave them where they are!

I don't see a problem with the giveaways. They are usually in the section the giveaway is focused on. If you don't care for them don't open the thread, just by pass them. Not sure if anything else needs to be said, this just just my opinion.

Britney Spears.... Who the hell is that?

Like Hotrodblder said, they are usually in a place that relates to the product. And when they aren't it's because they're in the vendors section. I always look out for these because, 1st I wish I would win one, and 2nd it lets me know whats newly available.

So I agree, they are fine where they are.

Have you ever thought that you were blessed to be part of a forum that allows giveaways for its members, and that maybe you should be appreciative that so many vendors are offering products free of charge to the members of the forums?

Please show evidence where you found that every other thread was a giveaway.






edit: although a Giveaway Forum only visible to star holding members isn't all that bad of an idea.
