Contest Suggestion: Warning ..Rant.!

[Orvan]

Ok I'm bitter...
What about a ruling guideline for contest participants on future raffles. How about; "Contestant Must Have 20 or 30 posts To Be Eligible to Win."

So that Monkey members who actually contribute and participate in this lil community are the ones actually get rewarded..not some 2 post count from Right Said Fred who signed up last Nov and only posted 2 posts..One on the entry he won on and the other on a previous raffle he didn't win on.

Disney Land do this (not that RM is a theme park..it's a circus full of freaks).. "Save $40 on Entry Fees till the Month of August....." --then a fast reading disclaimer states... Discount is only good for Southern California residents with zip codes starting from 91910 to 92123.....Atleast the local residents get rewarded bec Disney knows that most of their visitors are local residents. RM should know.... we hear winner announcements of some joe or jane who never even posted or atleast annoy someone on the board.

ok, where was I again...pfft, I'm lost.. Beer thirty folks....

:devil:

List all the winners of all the contests.

You will see that most are contributors.

:rolleyes:

[Orvan]

I know Acadian won before..I stop doing the research from there..I'm lazy today... but but but...anyways

[heikkihall]

people who contribute do win yes. but so do people who dont. there should be atleast alittle discrepancy to help out frequent users of this great website.

[Toshi]

I won once, Orven, and if I don't contribute, at least I post a reasonable amount. ;) :D

[Orvan]

it's prolly bec I'm a downhiller who never trains and just like to have fun...for that I'm discriminated.... :p :cool:

[heikkihall]

Discrimination is BAD and not to mention Illegal :) :) :)

I pretty much agree with you concerning the contribution to the RM community Orven.

On the other hand, RM should never have contests that applies to US residents only like it is on Empty Beer and other places. That really makes me mad. :angry:

Yay for flipside! :D
a lot of us overseas monkeys do contribute to this site.......well ok maybe not me personaly but the others do.:thumb:

[The Toninator]

I've won too. (thanks bmxman)
I'm not concerned that the "one post only people" win because lot's of times these types of contests are to generate new "costumers." That's the nature of business. RM has to generate revenue to be able to afford to keep this wonderful community up and "free" to the users. So the occasional lurker winner is acceptable to me.

[Heidi]

Yes, I've won too!

Orven, if it will make you happy...you've won my friendship.:D :p :rolleyes:

[Damn True]

I won XTR cranks in BMXmans contest.

[Orvan]

all you winners can tell it to the dawg...;)

[shootr]

HEY!!!

How come he is not wearing his usual "I'm with Stupid"
T-shirt???

Is that why he looks so sullen and dissappointed?:devil: :D

[Damn True]

jealous biotch

I must admit that our rule stating "Members with names starting with the Letters "O", "Q", or "W" are not eligible to win may seem unfair. I can assure you that we do this for good reason.
