As a capybara I feel offended!
And a little guilty I've caused you troubles. :(

Wait, as the giveaway creator you asked people not to write thanks and people blacklisted you? Cause that there is some bullshit.

Yep, here is what the person said "THANKS!!! people like you go on my blacklist. people should be allowed to say thank you lol.... retarded people these days".
And I was indeed blacklisted. The person was only giving away bundled games anyway, so it's not like I'll miss out on any exciting giveaways.

I'd be glad to be blacklisted by someone like that (regardless of him giving Bad Rats or HL3: Gaben Edition, I wouldn't like to receive things from that kind of douchebag..)

People can blacklist forwhatever reason. Maybe they thought he was being pretentious or holier than thou, but in the end, it doesn't really matter. I might have been blacklisted, but I don't know, and don't really care.

People are allowed to blacklist other individuals, regardless of reason. You don't have to like it, but it's permitted.

I think it's okay to request something other than the typical thanks. I find it odd that people will blacklist someone for writing thanks, they shouldn't be surprised if people aren't happy about that and thus blacklists them. Capybaras are super cute though, so my opinion on the matter may or may not have been swayed.

I never said that I would blacklist anyone though, I just asked people to post capybara pictures instead of saying thanks.

I know, I just meant that other people have stated that "thanks = blacklist" on their giveaways. You just merely requested something in particular instead of thanks, the response to call you a retard and blacklisting seems a bit overboard.

Yep, the once I mentioned blacklisting people for saying thanks I got tons of flack over it. I was in the middle of doing a bunch of trading, so being spammed with new message notifications on here kept making me think somebody'd done an offer on my stuff but nope, just thanks. >.<
Disclaimer: I didn't actually blacklist anybody, but the number of deleted comments on my giveaways is hilarious. "YOU DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING!" XD

Don't sweat it....I've done GAs where ive asked for something other than thanks. Like Kat said, they might have assumed thanks=blacklist....which, I don't think is usually the case...I don't blacklist when someone posts "Thanks". I just whitelist people who are real and have a good GA ratio. I actually don't have an issue with bots. I don't use them(Anymore) because I like the community aspect of SG, but have no qualms with people who use the bots.

I'm pretty sure that's because you weren't asking for a pic of a galago....

I'll have to ask for that in the future, I think I've exhausted the worlds supply of capybara pictures!

So you've exhausted the worlds supply of capybara pictures AND discovered a brand new reason for being called retarded! Now that's two achievements in one single gibs and that's gotta count for something! ;D

I was actually able to find a pig eating a dog, but didn't post it, pretty gross.

Well, creativity is a lot to ask for when it comes to free stuff.
I blacklist people spamming me with countless variations of 'Thanks', mainly to make use of all the features this site's got to offer (otherwise, I'd probably never blacklist anyone).

This is the lady who blacklisted you. I hope I'm not calling out or anything...

Did they elaborate on why you're a retard for asking for pictures of capybaras?
Also, here's one.

Pfftttt, they're just babies. Don't worry about them xD You can tell them what not to do/ what to do in YOUR giveaways, since they're the ones getting free shit.

yep i posted in some threads too that in my opinion thanks is a no-go
and i found myself on blacklists
i think i should not have participated on the discoussons at all so ppl cant notice me
and it sure was for that. cause i never was rude and am no leechyman
sure blacklisting can be done for whatever reason but in the end it destroyes the community if ppl blist others for their opinion
blisting leechers, rude ppl and stuff. thats the list for in my sight of things

I do not even maintain a blacklist, but would probably have started one on this user for using the term "retard" in the derogatory fashion... just sayin'.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, it has finally happened, I've been blacklisted (and called a retard). The reason? I asked people to not just write thanks, but instead I said that if they wanted to post something, they should post a picture of a capybara.
So here is a silly game for silly reasons to blacklist people (And please don't just copy paste the same thanks, post something cute instead!)
