You know what? Your comments are uncalled for and inconsistent. I first suggested paypal as an alternate method of payment; You had no issue with this suggestion, even though I am interfering with the way the contest is "being run". You say, "You're not happy with the way the raffle's being run, don't
participate ." but when I immediately suggest another payment option, you don't care. Why? Because it's a good friggin' idea!

So, that said, your personal opinion that 1 helmet is enough no matter what, differs from my personal opinion.

I'm trying to suggest a way to make it better for everyone involved. You apparently don't agree with what I'm suggesting and it is certainly your right to think that way. BUT, you run a COMMUNITY, where people contribute in many facets. Also, this is a FORUM, where people discuss ideas and have conversations. He brought the news here, and I'm merely suggesting some ideas.

It simply isn't ok to tell me it's all or nothing. You have no right to tell me I can't suggest a change, while already making it clear (by not commenting)that you didn't mind my other change suggestion.

THERE WAS A SMILEY AFTER THE "Bitching and Griping" comment. You payed such close attention to the rest of the post, but not the smiley? Why be selective?

Thanks for the advice.

: Bah.

Bah, indeed.
