Default Give-a-ways

Granted I love we can have them, and I will be a star member shortly so I can enter.

Seems they just clog up forums though. People are greedy so they'll pop in all the forums just for the chance, some without a use for it, I understand that, human nature is greedy.

So going into a forum you have to wade through the give aways just to see posts sometimes.

I say...can't we have a forum section for give-aways? This could be then more consolidated and better for the mods since they can see/delete once the give-away ends.

Just a thought.

Apparently you missed all the ruckus caused by the last person who suggested this.

The purpose of the giveaways is to promote the product the vendor is giving away and to bring exposure to their business. If they want to promote something for the AX-10 then they can post it in the AX-10 section.

A separate section for giveaways is not going to happen.

I love how it's always non-star holding members that suggest this.

What about a sub-sub-forum for give-a-ways in each particular subforum?
Just a thought, dosn't matter to me because I browse by Today's Posts, not by forum.

Only problem I see with giveaways is the stupid little bitchs that post 2, 3 times in one giveaway thread. Drives me nuts, They should take a vacation to band camp

We try to keep up with them but there are so many givaways, and we have to remember to delete all their posts right before it ends.

I suggest a sub forum to the suggested giveaway forum for suggestions on better managing giveaways and the suggested forum.

I think it's funny. Cause you lose your chance to win if you post more than once.

They should get their own section.

Did someone already say that?

I think it's funny how they fail to realize that you can see how many times they've post in the thread.

You have lost your ability to be sarcastic or make jokes.
