I've been holding out posting in this thread because I wanted to read some comments and take in some of the members thoughts and reasons for their particular vote. I think both the members who voted yes and the ones who voted no have good points and both should be considered.

I guess my thoughts are why not. I definitely think there should be some guidelines in place for those types of posts and a special forum section dedicated to those types of giveaways. As long as it doesn't hurt the members or Avinashtech in any way then we should give it a try, perhaps even on a probationary status to see how it goes first. If things run smoothly and there aren't any issues then we can permanently implement it into the site. On second hand, if it causes problems then re-instate the rules about limited giveaways.

I think it is a good idea to try new things and try to progress as long as it doesn't cause any issues.
