Giveaway sub forum in here?

[Matt]

What do you guys think?

I love the idea of giveaways and have already personally benefited from them. :fairy:

Do you think we need to have a sub forum in here to keep them organized in one place?

[Brice]

I think that's a wonderful idea. :D

[Randall Flagg]

I voted no. When lots of giveaways are happening it's cool to have a subforum, but I have seen where gifting pauses for some time and you have a forum with no changes for months. However, I don't feel strongly about the isssue.

[Darkthoughts]

Or perhaps, to keep it more consistent - it could be a joint thread for signing upto and keeping track of/posting pics of this idea:


Daggers you star!! I was telling someone about this the other day and they thought I was making it up. I couldn't remember what the scheme was called...I'm definately going to do this :thumbsup:

We should do a DT.com one - mail a book to each other - and see how far round the board it gets. We could sign the inside of the cover or something.

I am totally for this if someone would like to organize it. :cowboy:

[Matt]

that could be a part of it, it could be expanded to any kind of card or gift exchange or giveaways.

the sub forum I mean, but I am also good either way.

[Patrick]

I think subforum idea is worth a try.

The book exchange could have its own thread in the subforum and would likely see more action as I assume it would be all about keeping reading copies moving around, whereas the giveaways tend to be more of a one-time shot, especially when they are collectible.

[Darkthoughts]

Good point!

So by reading copies do you mean we won't be mailing Asbestos Firestarters or 1st/1st 'Salem's Lots around the world?

Oh, I strongly encourage that. In fact, put me down as the first recipient of your asbestos Firestarter. I'll make sure to circulate it. Sure I will. ;)

Dammit! I was hoping you were gonna' mail one around. :( I was even gonna' offer to pay your postage. :couple:

[Patrick]

If I had one, I'm sure I'd be rushing over to the post office right now to send it out.



:lol:

[Brice]

Oh, I'm sure you would. :rofl:

[Erin]

I think it's a good idea. And, like has been mentioned above, it could be used for a variety of things. :D

[Daghain]

I think it's worth a try. We can always abandon it if it doesn't work. :D

[Randall Flagg]

So perhaps a giveaway, book exchange, gifting, here I am, send me a card forum?

[Daghain]

Yeah, like that. :D

[NeedfulKings]

:rofl:

For some reason, that struck me in a funny way!!! :D

[Letti]

I voted for sure. I have been thinking of it.

[Matt]

Yep, we could use it for all kinds of stuff like that :rock:

[Odetta]

I think it's a good idea... all the goodies in one place

[Storyslinger]

I think it is worth a try

[Matt]

We let the vote tell and now its here. :rock:

If you guys see any other threads on the site that could go in there, let me know.

I'm also up for suggestions on a better name. :lol:

[Darkthoughts]
