Because its fun. I like to give people a chuckle or if I feel strongly about somthing like this Id rather do it with a smart ass comment than a flame that tears at a somone personaly.

But then there are people like you that just rub me the wrong way. If I irratate you don't read my post. Thats what everybody else does. Why do you feel it nessesary to comment on my little jab. Is it because you have nothing in your head or are you just one of those iceholes that just talks when you can fark with somone.

I dont like the contest. Is that better?

I like the occasional one line (non-flaming) posts. :)
Sometimes they are quite funny, but even if not, they indicate life, that someone has read the previous post and has found something of interest in it.
Also, you get a little more insight into that other person, and can then evaluate his or her other (longer) posts a little better.
It's all part of bonding as a forum community. ;)

NA

gfx card: Nuit
cap: Perrako, Uilopoa, Amcyr, Maika, Taus
mousepad: Salym, Melodie, Gunry, Moes, Carman

Answer was Ragus, and I answered ragus within seconds, I mean 3 seconds of the question, it said YES RAGUS, blah blah blah.

This winner list is incorrect, it took another 18 seconds (yes I had timed it) before the contest was closed.


Try not to cry wolf.
Im sure they are doing the best they can.
Why would they want to commit fraud?

I too had Ragus typed in fast, about 2 seconds. It was not just this one, 3 other contest the same thing happed. I do think something is a little fishy with this contest, but I already won a mousepad and cap so no big loss. I don't thing anyone is doing anything wrong; it may just be a buggy contest.

Buggy? In this game? I don't think that could be true...

actually i remember the ragus contest going for several minutes before it ended

and so do several of my guildmates, we had enough time to go look up info on what it could be and talk.

so the only fraud is you trying to say you won

I came close to winning on one of the questions got 2nd, thought I answerd quick but guess not quick enough....dont see me complaining I got a hat and im cool with it. Point is who cares, be thankful that you actualy had the "chance" to win something....anything for that matter.

edit: hat actualy just arrived in the mail how ironic is that....looks cool now where does it plug into my computer.
