I don't really get what you're at other than some sort of contest to give away your RS account.
I'm sure that some will post here for it. I'm probably the only one who feels this way, but if you want to give the account away give it away. Don't turn it it into a contest.
Also, you do know password shareing is against forum rules... right.
Personally I wouldn't take over your account, for the simple reason I don't know you or what you may have upped to RS. Anyone who takes over the account becomes accountable for what's posted there. 
BTW ballyhoo, offering a free RS account is a nice gesture, don't get me wrong I'm not knoking your generousity or intent, just the way you went about it. A PM to one of the Mods first may have been a good first move.

AS you can plainly see it's you who has insulted all of us! We have a exlempary community of the best people / poster's you could ever be lucky enough to know! So the fine member's here try to point you in the right direction and you call that a flame ?
Give away the account or dont but the contest is over! And so you are made aware this pm is going in your thread. MM.......
Same question as everyone else and just what does he get out of this give away??
And to the lot of you that posted in this thread! Well way to go!!
you gave excellent well informed advice to ballyhoo in a very calm profesional tone and he didn't even try to listin, please excuse his rudeness. Most fourms whould have Flamed him with gay or sick porn.
Now you all get a week off with pay
I have seen similar things posted on other board's?? a trap?? or what?

Hmmm, and the boards I frequent hold contests on a frequent basis to give away free accounts...and on one of the boards, the Site Admin is the most frequent runner of those contests...and the recipients of those accounts seem to join the ranks of the good posters on a regular basis.
The site admin and mods have ways of dealing with span...it's called turning off the account of the perpetrator.
And I think I might have discovered why the regular posters (or at least some of them) were so hostile...it seems that some of the regulars still use the free download option at RS. Perhaps they felt they should automatically have been given an account? Gee, if they are that good, the pittance for the first month should not be an issue, since they won't need to pay for subsequent months...
I found your comment insulting, and I'd like you to consider deleting it from the thread.

I'm sorry, Mole, for perpetuating this thread! I thought you guys were all gonna take the bait and make this a thread of the ugliest vids one can imagine...heh heh, I figured you wouldn't fall for it, Photo!
I think everyone knows I speak my mind around here, justifiably or not, but I think this whole contest thing is an insult, of sorts, towards everyone who busts their asses off here for no gain. I think if someone wants to give something away, find someone who's posts you like, and pm them the gift...like Photo was alluding to about an already VERY generous member here. The best idea would be to use the RS account, Ballyhoo, and start uploading stuff - that would be the best gift of all. = )~
