I'd like to know what others think of the hand fulls of people coming to Teksndicate Notifying us of Linus giveaways.
I personally thinks its fine if one person posts but after going though the feed and counting 9 posts regarding giveaways I think its a bit much and should be controlled. I have nothing against linus or his community but I don't think they should come over here and post multiple times regarding giveaways.
Once again I'd like your thoughts on this.
I made a post about the Haswell giveaway, but that was because I hadn't seen the first post about it, which was the day prior to my post. However, since I posted that, I have seen at least 10 other posts about various giveaways they are running. While it is good to spread the information, this has gone out of hand. One post was enough; I know it counts as an extra entry for you, but for the love of all that is holy, guys, stop posting about it.
Go post it on Tom's hardware, LMAO
It's ridiculous the amount we're getting. I think it might be best to lock a few, bloody hell.
These were all the threads I found ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THE FEED!

LOCK'em all but the first one & the Blog post.
Sorted. I left this one remaining as it covers all the stuff he's giving away, not just the CPU or the other stuff.

actly what i've been doing... lol
e
was it you that made the text green? :)
yes
@mitch: this shouldn't be a blog post. you know better....
How did you make the text green? Just by using the HTML tags?
Test:
Is this text coloured?
text format to 'full html'
then use the css button
or edit html source and use <p style="color: #006400;">
OK, I think I got an idea: if another user is seen posting a link about this, please report it to one of the mods (including me) about it.
I know i made one to tell everyone, but it was at 3am, and no one else had posted yet, i kind of feel bad now for being part of the Linus spam.
