Alrighty then... Today is my Birthday and I have been waiting a long time to ask you guys this :o

Feb 1, 2012 3:07 PM

I am expecting a lot of downvotes :D ...since is a really stupid question, but I have been dying to ask it and today is finally the big day.

How old do you think I am?

let me just start with: you're first (most likely joking) guess is actually correct lol

also for the last year i have hinted at it on posts. but most people just took it as a joke and carried on (that was a big hint)

....hmmmm I want to give a prize to the first person to get the age I turned today (exactly) ...we'll see how that goes :D

sorry if I am bothering you with this question and it is spamming up your questions tag ('cause I know, I don't like those spamming questions either) if you wanna let it out on me feel free down there

You joined Woot on 8/9/2010, so I'm going to guess older than 18 months.

29. That is always the right answer, no matter what the actual answer is.

And happy birthday! I dedicate my deals to you today :)

Oh, fyi, I wasn't guessing. he/she said "see you tomorrow" on the question about what you would say to your 15 year old self.

the fact that you're asking this makes me think either 16, or a socially stunted 23. :D

@dw1771: haha true that :D ...well, my brother (who is much older) bought some things from woot which is how i was introduced. I really am not sure how i got into posting things on the dw forums though... 'cause he has never done it. I just did one time though, lol. I just kinda tried to figure out the system, and what stuff ppl posted, and was really bad in the beginning :D I am quite competitive so that kinda compelled the start of it, but I wasn't serious about it. I then started really liking the community (of course, it's the best) ...and then! there was the first $5 jumbowoot coupon. Of course as a 14 yr old i was like :O But since then, like most others, the coupons are awesome but the community is what keeps me here. I have gotten * a lot* of coupons though, which is just amazing. I use them for buying gifts for my family all the time. (and the shirts of course, I am a shirt.woot addict) I am up to 22 woots and have hardly paid anything :] ....i can go on and on and on :3

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
