The purge 2

    Anyone want to play a game for a bit of fun.
    It's very simple

    The first 25 people to sign up will go in to a poll. (25 is the max number allowed in poll)

    Once we have 25 I'll create a poll.

    The winner will get a 24 hour AH ban.

    The poll will run for 24 hours and results will be hidden till the end.

    Please note, if you agree to take part you could end up with a ban.

    This is just a bit of fun so no taking digs in the comments.

    There is an out. If you are the 'winner' you can buy your way out of the ban by making a €2 donation to a charity of your choice.

    Only new people will be considered for this game for the moment.

    Once we get 25 I'll create a poll. The poll will be open for 24 hours. At the end of that 24 hours the one with the most votes gets a 24 hour AH ban.

    The only way not to get a ban is to post a screenshot of a €2 minimum donation to a charity of your choice.

    I would like to point out that I "won" last week and still graciously accepted my one-day ban, even after making a ten euro donation to a non-profit organisation.

    And I would like to point out that nobody ever saw any proof of any such donation. Several other people made donations even though they didn't win and managed to show proof without revealing their identity.

    Well I'm clearly a lot more conscientious about maintaining my anonymity than they are. I wasn't gonna risk anything to reveal my identity.

    There was literally no risk whatsoever. So I call absolute BS on your 'donation'.

    I wouldn’t be too sure about that, B. You don’t think there’s a “trail” left behind from uploading something to this site?

    I do and I’d be of the same mind as Woke Hogan, as much as it “pains” me to say.

    You are either incredibly naive or you don't know anything about computers. What would stop anyone from scrubbing the evidence for identifiable information? Or the moderators of this website leaking my personal information if I was to forward the proof to them? Now you're accusing me of lying about making donations to a non-profit organisation. What an awful thing to do.

    Oh and you can cut your information rather than blacking it out and nobody suggested sending your info to the mods.

    And what about meta data? Or did you even think about that. :rolleyes: Lying about making a false donation to a non-profit organisation is an incredibly despicable thing to do and I'm not a criminal. I think it should be taken on good faith that I was honest about my donation. This is an anonymous internet forum and I am a very private man. I have every right to take every measure to maintain my privacy.

    It's funny, the last poll toppers were a mixture of people that others wanted banned because they're a pain in the hole and a few very popular people who were voted for because they're popular and a bit of craic. I wonder if those people know which category they fall into...

    Of course there's also the third category where no one knows you or gives a **** about you, that's where I finished :D

    You can insult within reason to try top the poll or lick arse to try not to. But this is AH so doing one might have the opposite effect.
