You bored dufremle? We almost never post bike night announcements a full week in advance. ha! Although you haven't turned the counter on yet.

[LonestarCBR]

Let me say it before Polo does...WHERE'S THE COUNTDOWN TIMER?!?

[Polokid69]

I haven't said that in a long time

[LonestarCBR]

Heck, it's there. I wonder if it just appeared, or I missed it the first time.

[dufremle]

I never remember the countdown. Usually because it somehow automatically appears at some point after I make the post.

[WillK675]

I turn it on a lot of the time. Occasionally someone beats me to it. I got it today.

Reminder to those who still owe for the raffle. Please bring me the money. Also, please do not use PayPal to pay for the raffle. I was notified on Monday that it violates the Acceptable Use agreement. Get with me, if you have not already, to make arrangements to pay if you will not make bike night.

I was notified on Monday that it violates the Acceptable Use agreement.

Well that sucks. So now you're going to have to start trusting me (and others) for the money? The raffle's future is doomed!

[toy752]

Can you not just make a friend donation over pay pal?

[dufremle]

Regardless, if they link the payment back to one of their listed unacceptable uses they will lock the account. Then you are screwed.

I had no issues when paying via Paypal for different FWMR payments. I assume this is new???

[dufremle]

No, that has always been their policy. I think the issue is that someone mentioned the raffle in the note from PayPal and it was flagged.

The relevant part being #6:

6. involve gambling, gaming and/or any other activity with an entry fee and a prize, including, but not limited to casino games, sports betting, horse or greyhound racing, lottery tickets, other ventures that facilitate gambling, games of skill (whether or not it is legally defined as a lottery) and sweepstakes unless the operator has obtained prior approval from PayPal and the operator and customers are located exclusively in jurisdictions where such activities are permitted by law.

[LonestarCBR]

Okay, I was very careful not to note anything about a raffle, but that being said, are you saying you (we) can no longer use Paypal, or just that your (our) hand was spanked?

[dufremle]

We can't use PayPal for the raffles.

[LonestarCBR]

I still have an old book of stamps.
