I was a member over 2 years, and I racked up a whopping 500 posts in that time I guess not every post needs a response. Anyhoo I'm just glad to see the rig went to a longtime member that deserved it

That is a awesome paint job, but i think the wife would be scared of it. I can picture her looking at it with those fearful eyes at night and telling me to sent it back even if it was free

It's kinda funny, the posts you see that are just "I want this rig", or "my rig sucks so bad I need this one" and not much else content wise from them. I am not trying to bash anyone here, as I am still new myself, but thats just kinda funny. I have a pretty decent rig already, mostly due to gifts from a benevolent hardware reviewer who shall remain nameless. I joined this forum because he pointed me towards it a few years ago, but I had pcgamer forums so I didn't need a second one. That forum fell apart (pc gamer). I always enjoyed the hh reviews; and the forums seemed to be a friendly, knowledgeable bunch of chaps whom I figured I would flap my gums at and see if anyone listened. Would I have liked to win this new rig of course, who wouldn't? I joined this forum not because of the contests but with the contests being gravy, I joined to have a place to fart around on a forum. If I win a contest so be it, but I don't have a dire need for new pc smell right now. My point is I joined this forum to have a forum not to win a new rig.

At my other forum I was a member who checked every day to see what was going on. I was a member over 2 years, and I racked up a whopping 500 posts in that time I guess not every post needs a response. Anyhoo I'm just glad to see the rig went to a longtime member that deserved it

No I think your right Ice. Seems like a peak right when the contest is announced and then again right before the winner is announced.

Savage Animal:
I woder how many people put in just 1 post and never came back? They are missing out on a very informative board.

yeah ive been reading and rereading this thread and i see loads of people who ahve 4-5 posts say something along the lines of "it would be awesome if i win this.." and leave.

one thing i did notice though, is the board dies down between contests... or is that just me? could be my excitment level is way too high.
