Default Contests?

It seems when there's a contest/giveaway going on here there's not much participation for the most part. I know you have expanded many forums, but maybe a contest/giveaway forum, people might get more involved and give the sponsers more exposure. In the Ride of the month contest I think there's less than 20 votes and I know a lot more people visit than that, even the regulars out-number that by far.

Just a thought.

The various give aways are in different forums as they are being sponsored (the forum) by those various sponsors. (That didn't come out very well at all).

Further, the hope is that the members will visit various forums and check different things out, vice just go to a "giveaway" forum and do nothing else.

These things take a little while to catch on...

For now, let's just leave it the way that it is.

Mac,

I agree. I think some of the contests just need a little push like the "Ride of The Month" contest. We really have some fun ribbing going on now and the votes are really picking up. Maybe if one of the regulars post someting on each forum to let everyone know about the contest going on it will pick up.

Terry

P.S. Did you find out anything in reference to the question I asked about Sickshooter give away last month?

Don't worry Mark. I'm sure it's just some kinda mix up. Mac[sm=vader1.gif] will take care of it. I'm really looking forward to installing them on my bike. Nobody around here has any. Now I'll be the only one at my dealer (my closest dealer) with Rineharts and Sickshooter axle caps.

Sickshooter asked for the information, you should be getting them any day. If you have not received them this week, let me know.
