Is it okay to blacklist winner who doesn't have courtesy to say thank you?

that's just ego party, nothing more
"While making something good don't expect people to be thankful for it" - that's what i've learned long ago
if you want to do someone's day a little brighter, you're doing it for yourself at first
feels better when you're givin' away any goods, and double of it when someone thanks you after all
but nothing of it is nessesary, it's just a question of manners or kinda...

my blacklist is full sooo 1000 people
mostly people that used bots to auto join

you have to be some kind of pos to not say thank you on a win, yes, i blacklist non thankers. i also dont like it when they win and say thanks before ive even given them the game, would you thank someone before they hold the door open for you? would be pretty damn weird thing to do. to me those thanks basically say "oh look ive won time for a obligatory thanks/idgaf/just give me my key"

The ungrateful public is a prime candidate for black listing

I wouldn't, but you're free to do what you wish regarding blacklisting people. Sounds completely childish to me, as do some of the responses from people who say they blacklist for no thank yous. Though, in that regard, this reciprocal blacklisting feels so much sweeter when people BL for those reasons.

I don't mind it that much. I care about if people gonna play the game or not more :^)

You can blacklist anyone at any time for any reason, and can't no one say mess about it. I'd probably blacklist someone if they didn't say thanks, took a million years to mark the key as received, etc. I leave thanks on every gib I've won, because it takes just a few seconds and lets someone know the game is appreciated.

I always thank the giveaway creator when I win a giveaway! :3 I would thank more of the ones I enter and don't win, but I don't think they want all that spam. :x

I believe it's a bit harsh to blacklist someone for not thanking you, but it's your giveaway, so...your decision in the end. I don't blacklist people for not thanking me on the thread, but they usually thank me anyway. :)

I personally don't care about the people who enter my giveaways. I gift something, I don't expect anything in return.
I guess that you can blacklist anyone for whatever reason.
It seems that I have added to 6 blacklists and 1 Whitelist and I don't care about any of them. I've never blacklisted anyone since I don't care about people.

Is it ok to win a blacklister?

Punishment doesn't work as well as rewarding. So instead, whitelist those who say thanks and everyone will be polite!

The useful power of psychology!

you can blacklist for any reason

it's fine
it's your rule anyway

but in the end, do you want to check each and everyone and expecting thanks?
not me, i used to have the same ideas like you but in the end i'm too lazy checking each GA for thanks lol
and in the end i just hope they get my game and click received, no need to check my inbox very often too

You CAN, but I don't think you SHOULD. I enter so many giveaways I don't really have time to say thanks every time. I usually try to bump every giveaway thread, though.

not everyone has the courtesy to say thank you i would not blacklist anyone.

I almost never blacklist anyone but then again, I don't usually ever whitelist someone.

The only people I blacklist are people who have me blacklisted (I guess I'm just petty like that)

It's okay to black list for any reason at all. Even for person to be too friendly and positive ;D
