This was a great rant, and I really appreciated it. I think you made a great point about the contests being once a year. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Hey, Jessi, hello. Thank you so much for the fantastic review and giant sixer. I sure didn't plan on one of those. Lol. I'm glad you liked my little rant. I just had to get it out there. Haha. I dearly appreciate it, J. Have yourself a great upcoming weekend and thank you again.

Comment from Thesis
Now tell us how you really feel, LOL. You have a point with the new contests starting a year later. The cash prizes are few and far between and seem to be more on the poetry side. Let's see if your rant brings about some change.

Thank you for the great review, Thesis. Yes, make sure you join all the 5-7-5's and 1-6-1's the have to offer. I don't know we can survive without those. Lol. Thank you again, friend.

Comment from patcelaw
I love you I agree with you that to have only one or year in this particular setting is kind of ridiculous. I think the committee props are probably better than the ones that people dream up of Virginia and becoming blind copies I don't necessarily believe that people on the side choose very carefully those things that are in line entries.

Lol. That's for sure. Thank you so much for the great review, Patricia. Yes, I think they should definitely come up with more different contests than the same over and over. I really appreciate the generous stars, Patricia. Thank you again.

This was a good old-fashioned rant about living in a community. Unfortunately I suspect it may not be of the most popular. I was brought up never to bite the hand that feeds me, even if I don't like the food on offer. kay

Comment from Faith Williams
You might not win because your rant is against this site, but you definitely won't win this contest if you fail to follow the one requirement: end your rant with 'Now I feel better'.
I do agree that rants are especially great relievers of stress. I also agree there could be some upgrades or changes made. I laughed at your closing line.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest.

LOL. Thank you so much for catching my incompetence. I guess if I hope for wins I better pay attention to rules. Haha. Thank you for the great review and help, Faith. I fixed it. I really appreciate the gracious stars and good luck wishes. I'm glad you had a chuckle. That's all I was really going for.

Comment from Rachelle Allen
Well then for SURE I am not about to rate it less than a five!! I don't need any more heat from members on here. Though I do have to say, since your pep talk a couple weeks ago, I think I'm loving your idea to have the entire FS membership mute ME, too. Like, why should just YOU get to enjoy that level of peace and autonomy?!
But you know I don't disagree with any of your rant. It is nonsense that a rant contest would be only an annual occurrence. Still, you can understand their logic for it, I'm sure: They don't want the members thinking or talking about the shortcomings here; it might require them to instigate (whisper) CHANGES!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Can't have THAT!!
So, even though there will be a silent majority cheering you on, the Powers That Be will not be among them. If you do miraculously win, I will send you 100 real dollars, as well!!

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
You really like the Rant contest. You should tell Tom. Maybe he'll create it again as I notice there are many contests that repeat. The way you weave humor into your rant adds a light touch to the overall frustration, making it fun to read while still driving home your points forcefully. It's clear that you feel strongly about this contest! haha
