Site Etiquette

Re: Is it okay to post that?

yay that was pretty wierd. I was thinking, Well I know I didn't spam anything. I haven't even been online much..since the power was out. :scratch: :crazytongue:
 
I too belonged to another site that was a bit more easy to use since I am very not tech savvy but the replies so were foul mouthed, gross, racist and mean that I couldn't deal with it anymore and I come here now. Its GREAT to see others win and it gives me hope too. I feel like we are a 'family" of sorts here. Good luck to all of you sweeping..... :cheers:
 
:wave: :wave: WELCOME...Im so glad your here to join us...Im on a dry spell right now, so any of you that are winning keep posting because that gives me the hope that I might be next... :sunny:
 
Well, I have to agree with all the comments here, what more can I say?? I too love to hear the joy and triump in members posts when they win whether it's big or small. It's a great pick me up and gives me hope. The only thing I differ on is I don't feel SA members fall into the co-worker category. They are all more like family to me and I look forward to seeing their posts everyday, it makes me happy to see them happy. So, enuff said, I'm gonna go win something. Wish me luck!........... :wave: :sunny:
 
I started sweeping in 07 by accident really. I found this website and played a logitech game and won a speaker system and a wireless DJ system. I love posting on here because I don't get the "look" or have to hear another person say "you won again?" Thanks for making me feel right at home. Another happy sweeper. :sunny:
 
I just wanted to say thank you to all the members for being so nice when ever i win my t-shirt or whatever prize that is not much of a prize to some people, but makes me do the dance and be so happy. It is just great, I really appreciate all the kindness and support.
 
Forum Expectations

Since the forums are becoming more active and there are several new members here at SA, we thought it would be a good idea to have a conversation about what is and is not appropriate in the forums.

First and foremost, this is a sweepstakes site. Although we do provide forums for some good humored fun, it is expected that that good humored fun be rated family friendly. Swearing, abusive remarks, sexual innuendo, and unwanted flirtatious behavior are examples of the type of posting that should not be made in any of the forums.

We respect the differences of all our members. We also understand that at times, members may misinterpret something that is written in the forums. We encourage you to send a message to the person making the post that has upset you and ask, in a conciliatory way, for an explanation. Many, many, many disputes can easily be resolved through communication. If you would like assistance in working on an issue with another member, feel free to ask for help from any of our moderators.

The easiest way to have a wonderful relationship with the SA family is to be respectful of all, no matter what differences you have with topics or members.

Finally, we ask that you be respectful of Chocolate Sweepstakes & Giveaways. It is a topic of great fondness here!

We hope you make SA all you want it to be. Best of luck to all!
 
I love reading about everyone's wins.
I try to do it everyday - that is more than I enter contest!

Nice wins - Congratulations Everyone!

:wave:
 
I also go to the Winners Circle first thing in the morning. I love reading what everyone wins! I think this is a fantastic site & I am so glad that I joined. Great community and a lot of fun!!
 
Re: Is it okay to post that?

I am posting this note here and hope that people will see it.

We want SA to be a welcoming place where people can discuss things in a comfortable environment. However, as soon as people bring religion or politics to the table, the potential for conflict arises.

Please be respectful of others' beliefs. We can agree to disagree. Politely.

We don't like to censor comments, but posts that are overly judgmental, preach at length, aim to recruit, or abuse another person's beliefs are unacceptable. We came here to sweep. As important as religion and politics are, they are not the main focus of this website. Thank you ~
 
Well I personally am fairly new to the whole sweepstakes world! I won the new iPad back in March through an essay contest with the Army Air Force Exchange and was sooo elated, that was the first time I have ever won anything before! It was a feeling I wanted to experience again and again! So I did a google search for sweepstakes and contests and was blown away with how many sites there were! (Was overwhelming actually!) after a few days of looking and experimenting I found SA.... Needless to say I haven't searched anywhere else, most (if not all) of the other sites had no organization, or not so nice members.... I'm a stay at home mom and participate when children are napping, etc. so please forgive me if I'm not here everyday to congratulate all of the wins! I look forward to sharing your excitement on your wins as well as my own!! And since I am still learning please don't hesitate to inform me if I'm doing something wrong, oh and pointers are welcome too! I've read rules, laws, sticky posts etc, some are still a little gibberish but I'm figuring it out slowly but surely. I'll be sure to post every win (if & when) they occur!
 
Admin prefers only winning posts go in the Sweepstakes Winners Circle forum, since they link off the home page.

So... if you get a UPS/FEDEX/etc. notice or receive a prize you already knew about, please post that in the Mailman Alert forum, thanks!
