It took another 3 hours to get to a nearby shop to get some food. There was a long queue, and the young lady behind the counter was attending to all the customer with a beautiful smile and thorough efficiency. As my number came, just then a very old gentleman entered the shop with a walking stick. Seeing him, this charming lady politlely excused herself, rushed to this old gentleman and served him the food first. She never lost the smile, but had an added loving concern for this elderly. I watch the entire scene and that scene is still freshly in front of me. I was happy that my "hunger" took me there and a very beautiful human act was unfolded before me! Well, the food that she later served me (absolutely required!), with proper apology (absolutely not required) was one of the tastiest meals I had in a long time! Great people you have there!!

Small incident??... Not at all! Such incidents were very common in my short stay in UK. I am thankful for those bright moments. You can say that there are darker alleys in every city, but I found just beautiful landscapes and true human beings there! I remember those days with much affection! Who says it is luck to find the sunshine over UK??... watch those kind faces, you will always find the loveliest sunrays there!!

Ok, getting back to business now

Is that he can only post 10 times a day or only 10 of his posts from any one day will be considered for his total? I assume the later as the point of the contest is to encourage participation on the forums

I think we made all rules considering all participants of free domain contest would be spammers. I really don't think sb123 is behind a free domain but there should not be such strict rules or conditions for such genuine members

If you read all his 11 posts then( hopefully ) you will learn many good things which you were not aware of.

Totally agreed, Mark - sb123 you are welcome to post as much as you like, and you seem like a geniune member indeed and I do apologize to class you as a spammer, unfortunately a lot of members were here for the domain only and will leave without prompt reply. However, sb123, it would be a pleasure greeting you as "an old member" which we define as a geniune member and has stayed on the forum and joined in lots of discussions. We hope to see you as a regular member on the forum, sb123

I do agree. We shouldn't penalise a genuine member for posting good quality content - after all this is what we are trying to encourage with contests like this.

I think the 10 a day rule should be used to stop "hit and run" members who would post 40 posts in 1 day just for the free domain and then disappear

I need to stop being a grumpy old man. I've read sb123's posts and am amazed at their standard. Sb123, you are welcome to post as much as you want.

hehe, we're just not used to someone really good coming from this competition, hence the rules. But I have learned loads of his posts - they are extemely high quality in my opinion. Very detailed and well explained

Hey friends:

Thanks a lot for all the praises and compliments, but I am just a humble writer with a mission to help others, so, all these praises might distract me from that mission! also, others too are writing good posts, in fact, I feel they are much better.

Its their genuine and quality questions that are bringing out the best in me, so they are the real recipients of these praises. I am just sharing what I have learnt over last few years. It is also because there was no one to guide me when I faced those same questions, and I don't want anyone to be in that position of frustration now. About writing that touches the hearts, then it is because circumstances compelled me to shift to writing. I found out that it was my only skill that was keeping me & my principles alive, literally.

Thanks again, & God bless you all.

EDIT on 22/01/2008:
How many years is your domain will be registered? 1 year or what?

Is the maximum post must be 10? Because I post 5-10 a day..
Is it alright? if I post 10 a day?

Yes its still running. eUKhost will make a post and close the thread normally when the competition is terminated and also there is normally a warning if the competition is likely to end in the near future
