A tradition of giving... or non-subscribers, you gotta read this!!!
« on: October 31, 2011, 07:47:07 pm »
This forum has a great tradition of giving.  Sharing is the norm, and people are wonderfully generous.  I've been the recipient of some of that generosity and I've passed some along. 

On another forum where I have been known to lurk there is a tradition similar to what the natives of the Northwest do....they do a give-away when someone reaches a milestone.  On that forum, when someone reaches a milestone in regards to posting they announce that they are offering item to give away and they find someone to give it to.  Well, I'm hoping to start that tradition here to celebrate passing my 2,000th post.

But my give-away is in the form of a contest.  I have talked this over with some moderators and Admins as well as staff at Primitive Archer Magazine, they agreed as long as I make it known I'm doing this and not the magazine or the admins/moderators.  I am going to pay for a year's subscription to PA for someone that starts a new subscription.  It's strange to me, but some people in here don't have subscriptions!!!  Well here's your chance to double your 'scrip!  The rules are as follows:

1) New subscriptions only
2) Send me a PM with your subscription number (gotta have some kind of proof)
3) Ya got 14 days to get it done, starting now!  Monday, November 15th, noon cutoff!

Trust me, you will be a winner even if I don't draw your name. Primitive Archer Magazine is well worth it

I have never made so little money as I have in the last two years but I can't tell you how wonderfully blessed I have been. 

A large part of that is due to the many friends I have made in this forum.  I wanted to give a little something back and show the people at Primitive Archer Magazine a little love, too. 

Come on, let's see some people pony up a subscription!

I love this idea. I would like to see this become a tradition that builds an even better community by everyone participating, voluntarily of course. I passed 2000 a long time ago, so I am putting up another subscription. I talked to JW and he is going to build a list and pick the name of his lucky recipient, then he is going to pick another lucky person and I will do the same. That means that two lucky people are going to get their subscription doubled. Just send the information that was requested to JW and he will add you to the list.

Justin again proves the quality of the people that post on this Forum. 

All we need now are for some people to step up to claim the prize!

 Well, I talked omeone into buying two new ones this year for an Osage bow I'm working on for a Childrens Hospital Auction in the Spring. Like Justin I'm well past 2000, but, I'll play, too.

All right, that's three people that can get their subscriptions DOUBLED.

At this time the score stands:
3 offers
0 takers

If you ever thought you should get a subscription now is definitely your best deal ever!
