    Quality Posts Contest - How fast can you type quality content?

    We haven't done one of these for a long time, so I figured it was time to bring it back!

    The Idea:

    Post as many QUALITY posts as you can, before the contest is over!

    That's it!

    Rules:

    1. You MUST post that you will be entering this contest, in this thread. Users not letting us know that they are in the contest, will not be included. (This causes way too much confusion for us if we allow every member on the site to be included by default)
    2. Any 'spam' posts, or 'one liners' will disqualify you from the contest. - Remember: we want QUALITY posts!
    3. Copy/pasting your replies to a bunch of threads will disqualify you from the contest.
    4. Copy/pasting another users post, and passing it off as your own, will disqualify you from the contest!
    5. Any posts that we deem as not being a quality post, will not be counted towards your final tally. - This is entirely up to the discretion of the judges.
    6. Your posts may be on any of our 3 sites (MMOwned, FPSOwned or RTSOwned) - If you make posts on the other sites, please, let us know. (We're not magical, so we may miss some things)
    7. Normal forum rules apply!
    8. Receiving any infractions, or temp bans during the contest will result in disqualification.


    Prizes:

    First Place:
    1,000 MMOwned Cash
    Custom User Title - To be determined
    Special Usergroup for the month (no added privs)
    Custom Username Color/Glow
    Special Recognition - As per administrative decision

    Second Place:
    500 MMOwned Cash
    Custom Username Color/Glow
    More TBD

    Third Place:
    250 MMOwned Cash
    Custom Title Color/Glow


    Deadline:

    You have 20 days from the day of this post to submit your entries!

    Winners will be posted within 2 weeks after the deadline. (Yes, we need that much time to validate the posts)

    It's not a question of where it GRIPS IT, it's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird, could NOT carry a one pound coconut!

    Not to be mean, but I never understand you guys' contests because you don't explain em, that may be just me but either way:
    What do you mean by "Quality" posts? Like posts that help other people? "Good-Spelling"? Or what? Cause I honestly don't understand.

    A "Quality" post is usually fairly lengthy. Maybe a paragraph or 3. Like you said, good grammar and spelling is usually a plus, although I've seen a plethora of quality posts in my day that had terrible spelling and grammar, but spectacular content. A quality post could be anywhere from a great find in an exploit, to a helpful post to someone who might be new here and trying to contribute, but not doing it quite the right way.

    Be creative, I'm sure you can figure out what a quality post is. There are a ton of ways to help the community; make people laugh, make a great guide, you could even help someone currently making a guide by adding in your own knowledge, which will help them in a constructive way to perfect their guides. The same goes for exploits, often you can tweak an existing exploit to make it even better, and reply in the original thread. Im sure that would be considered "quality" even if its not very lengthy.

    Anyways, I hope you have a better understanding of quality posts. Its without a doubt subjective contest, but I think the mmowned staff is up to the challenge. A parting piece of advice: quality posts almost never begin with "Not to be mean"
