Maybe Monty just needs to get layed... Isn't the point of contests to get new members signed up to promote the sponsers of the site and to become part of the community? Here's a suggestion to Monty, walk out of your mom's basement for the first time in 6 months and see the freaking sunshine. A tan might not be too bad either.


Hmm, listen to what your saying...

These people sign up... POST ONCE. I can literally GUARANTEE you, they will never post again.

You have 1 post, you signed up to be rude, how does that make you better than me?

Isn't positive feedback always so great?

Or not so positive in this case, and not so great, && not so needed.

good job, I can see your an active member of the community

With 1 post your doing a great job!

Monty, did you mean that sarcastically?

What are you supposed to do?

Well, let's see. Your supposed to show that you "care" so bye saying "Wow. Haha" that shows you care much for the community && quality of the posts.

That guy was just like the people I mentioned

They come, they post once (and sometimes it's not even a meaningful post, like the one he posted) and they leave. never to be seen again.

I had a point, whether you saw it or not, the post I made had a point.

Yes, I know. I do understand. I do feel the same way.

I said wow to how all the chatter came about regarding it.

But I guess if they are a loyal member of SlashGear Blog and didn't happen to just fall upon the contest then it should be fine.

I apology in advance for the cause of the silly quarrel. I am a regular reader but barely post anything till i saw this post-to-win contest. Having post/read 5 different forums daily, i avoid emotionally involve in blog style review like this. I just can't keep up with the fast phase. But that doesn't make me a bad reader. After all, i am still a loyal slash-gearer just not an active poster.

Having a new member status doesn't disqualify you from participate in a contest or any different in wining probability. If the prize goes to an veteran, we'll still have something to rant on the authority. Same wise, situation like this doesn't make it any different.

To be honest, i don't think i stood a chance but there was only one entry before me for the whole week and 3 posters for the whole drawing. Guys, I posted and i won..As simple as that. May be Slashgear wants to be fair and promote 'you-can-do-it-too' for every participants. Why don't we all try it out next time and stop pointing finger.

I understand, and I figured that would be a very high possiblity without you just stumbling upon it.

As part of the community management team I would like to give our apology for everyones mis-understandings and arguement that arose.

Congratulations and keep being a slash gearer!

Funny thing about these contests.

The winner has still not been announced. It's saturday, they were supposed to announce it on monday...

Same thing with the one before. (that contest has been over for ages, I havent seen any winner!)
