Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

[rant]I'm going to start going to all y'alls houses and start urinating on your sofa's. When you say "Don't pee there, that's not the right place.", I'm just going to say, "to hell with your rules! I don't care that this is your house, not mine. I'm just a guest here. This is where I want to pee, I'm going to pee here! I don't care about your rules. I have a right to be here (in YOUR house) and do whatever I want!"[/rant]
Now, I'm no mod, but I do frequent MANY forums. And guess what? They ALL have rules that you must follow.
I'm not sure if you all realize this, but the mods are WORKING here. I know this is all just happy fun time for you, but some of them are working and you are making their jobs harder.
What if I post a link that contains a virus? The mods here (when the link is posted in the right place) check the links that people post and make sure they are legit. When they are not in the right place, that means a mod has to sift through thousands and thousands of posts to try and do their job.
They know what they are doing. It is their job! Many of the 'freebies, sweepstakes, etc' are fake! They are just trying to get your info so they can steal your identity. The mods check that out to keep us safe.
Bottom line: This is their sandbox, their rules!
OK, I'm done now and I know....tldr......
Have a good day! I hope my bike comes soon!

Don't know if you missed it but someone called Marlboro a week or so ago and was told that there would be no shipping until Jan 11 when the o.w.t.w. officially ends. It's in the posts from that time period in the old thread.wave. This was to give people time to switch prizes and etc. I would call them and inquire.

I know -- I've read thru pretty much all of it! lol. I was just trying to be funny. Apparently not so much.Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

As Gary would say, phooey on those turkeys who complain when we post links to contests & freebies on here! I'm with you....like to share with friends.....and saves us all time by not having to go through ALL the other forums looking through the garbage to find the good stuff.
The "old timers" that complained about us posting the links haven't been on here lately with their pissing & moaning...yeah! Oh, wait....they are on my ignore list, so if they have been complaining, I haven't seen it....yeah again!
Why would we complain? This thread is in The Lounge, where anything goes. It was only an issue when it was posted in threads it had no business being in (you really need to try to understand what a Thread/Forum/Site are, I don't think you grok it very well, this thread is not a "site", it's just one tiny thread among thousands on SD (the site)).

I have a list a 50+ sweeps I enter daily (most using iMacro in FF to speed it up), I'd be happy to post them if anyone wants to work through such a long list. I also have a separate folder of single-entry sweeps (that's how I keep them straight, once a single-entry is entered, I put the link in the SingleEntry folder so I don't accidentally enter again if I don't recognize a page after a while).

Hey Talonts, Mlx3 has you on her ignore list as do most people in here, You are wasting your time posting in this thread. Have you not noticed no one will talk to you. Move on little cowpoke and take your Okdoggy with you.

If anyone is worried about a link to a freebie or sweepstakes being a fake, and trust the SD mods to keep the fakes/spam off this site, there is a simple solution:
Before providing any information on a site, go to the freebie or sweepstakes forums on SD and search for the freebie/sweepstakes. When you find it, go through the SD link. If you don't find it, then "enter at your own risk".

This also works for those of us that post the links on the FF to share with our friends....check them out here first, before posting the link, or simply post the link to the SD thread instead of a direct link.

Just my opinion of course. Smilie

Whatever. I'll post in here for the people who don't make complete a$$e$ of themselves in other threads, or post for any reason at all. It's The Lounge, after all.
