A little off topic area where there would be contests, forum gold give-aways, something to get the community involved. It will bring in much more revenue and users to these forums.

I spend 90% of my total gaming time on these forums instead of gaming (diablo 2).

And this will prevent a lot of trolling and off topic posts in the trade threads.

If needed, I can/will hold the first ten or so events or contests and provide 1k-2k FG. (I can get more FG easily by trading my storage mules which I am in the process of)

Your questions or comments or concerns? post

I'd love to get this passed

Hmm, not sure.

Freerolls and other giveaway's are mostly hold under the BnP section. If this would only be related to FG I would suggest to go there (even tho it's most poker).

Voted maybe tho.

You voted maybe because "Freerolls and other giveaway's are mostly hold under the BnP section." Can you provide any proof of this I have never seen anything there but poker

If you want give fg away or make a "raffle" use my events.
No need for this.
We already have bnp, my events, jokers dimension and general chat.
It covers all of this.
