100% agreed. Couldn't possibly think of a worse way of running a contest. Prizes to whoever sits home for hours and types the most useless posts! WOW.

When I first saw the email, I thought for sure it would simply be whoever chimed in with the one millionth post, not whoever typed the most posts in the week. It got me to come check out the forum, however I will quickly avoid coming back this week to avoid all the clutter and nonsense posts, just for the contest. It may push away as many users as it will gain them.

There are already a bunch of first time posters just for the contest, and I am sure there will be plenty of new registrations too, which is exactly what Adam is after. I seriously doubt he will lose much posters in the long run. But he may lose some 'site supporters'.

Awesome contest...My all time favirite Film Slr is the Me Super. I currently own the K-10D. I am about to pick up the K-7. I plan to have the K-10D converted to a dedicated Infrared Digital SLR!
