This is just me, speaking for me about my feelings towards those that feel it their concern to moan about winning/not winning GAD or FAD.
For newbies, JATS and those just too bloody stupid to work it out, here's how it works:

Someone posts.
Someone wins a game (because SR staff feel it worthy)
Someone tells their mate about it, he/she joins and posts, hoping to win / someone wins again and keeps posting.

It's good business.
And allows people to win free stuff now and then.

Why do some people feel the need to whine on and on and on about this?
This isn't aimed at only Dan, this is aimed at every single person that "i thought i'd win and i didnt and that sucks and that took an hour to do and that didnt even win and blahlblahblahblahblah"

Be damn grateful that a site (one of the only ones I've ever seen) gives you free stuff for doing nothing more than writing.
Who cares if someone comes here once and wins then leaves?
What business is it of anyone but SR employees?

And for anyone having difficulties with that question?
NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS

I haven't won GAD in months and months and months.
Ok, I won some DVDs and I'm grateful as heck to SR for that.
However, I haven't won in a while.
Do I moan?
Nope
Do I post any less because of it?
Nope

I post away like always, and it doesn't enter my head to think "Hey, cool I should win for that one"
How arrogant do you have to be to presume that you should win because you "spent ages writing that" or "i worked really hard on that"?
It's down to staff to choose winners.
Not you and not me.

What is with Dan making "Tony read this or you're fired"posts??
I'd like to see you try that crap in the world, you'd get your beehind spanked in 2 seconds flat.
You spoilt little child, be quiet and stop whinging.

Jesus, they even changed the rules so there are more chances to win, and some people STILL moan?
Grow up and behave like intelligent people instead of baby birds in the nest, lifting your head back and sqwauking every time momma bird flies past with food.

Thank you for tuning in, I'm off to bed now.
I am spent.

Yeah, I think it was... I say loads of stuff that I never remember.

Agreed with Goatboy's topic, if I need to say so.

I would have to agree with this, why should all of those well deserved notables and regular regulars be sent away because of lack of customers?
