I am a lowly new member and rarely get involved in silly internet arguments, but this entire thing just rubs me the wrong way and I feel compelled to comment.

So let me get this straight. You acted like an entitled Karen in that poor guy's sales thread yesterday. Instead of admitting you were wrong or apologizing, you decide to make a "giveaway" thread with a bunch of passive aggressive comments that are so obviously directed at the OP of that sales thread you might as well have tagged his username in it.

You having a childish fit and then trying to claim "discrimination" (while also bringing God into it) is just beyond absurd. As someone who has faced actual discrimination in his life, I don't appreciate this at all. This is not a good look for the community as a whole and definitely doesn't set a good example for all the new chippers/members who may have viewed your asinine comments in that sales thread.

While I appreciate how generous you are being in this thread, one good deed does not overwrite a bad one. If you really want to make things right or clear your conscience, you owe @softchewy a sincere apology.

Just my 2 cents.

One good threadjack deserves another I suppose? you surely see the irony here.
If someone feels discriminated that's their right and I don't think it's cool to dismiss it on the basis of having faced 'actual' discrimination yourself. smh.

All the best to both the gents and both their lovely gestures irrespective of perceived motives. Chip away!

So it's discrimination if you don't meet the criteria to buy something and then just decide to have a completely uncalled for childish hissy fit? Lol, give me a break. Also, is this real life? Did we read the same thread and posts by this guy? It's obvious this dude has some serious issues and needs professional help.

What's ironic is how OP claims to not like drama but is usually the one acting abrasive or confrontational in every thread I've seen him post in. What kind of normal person has a lengthy block list on a poker chip forum? This thread is such a parody and if I was a mod I would have deleted it a long time ago. It's obvious it was created out of ego and narcissism.

But hey, if you think a couple racks of $1 chips will change or make up for the fact that this guy is acting like a complete tool then by all means, go join his cult. Just be sure not to drink the Kool-Aid.

This thread was created out of hatred and spite. There nothing glorious about it, it’s a spiteful act. Funny to see people worship this guy because they may have a chance to win free chips.
Buying acolytes, always a thing since time began. Works great till you run out of free stuff.

I'm not in, but think this is very generous of you. I was thinking though, that since you are not choosing the winner by a random, unbiased way, won't your choice be a discriminating choice? Not to create controversy, but some type of random choice that is out of your control might be a better choice. But again, this is very cool of you to offer this, and I agree with you about discrimination.

Even random would be discrimination on an arbitrary and fair basis.

I think the only way to do this truly this without discrimination is to give nobody anything (which I will do today in your honor @SpaceMonkey420).

And I’ll also chuckle a little if those arias get flipped at market price.

Yes. That’s treating some people different than others imo.

If you’re going to reach your destiny, you have to get good at ignoring things/people. Ignore negative comments, ignore disrespect, ignore insults, ignore the naysayers. They don’t control your destiny. They are distractions trying to keep you from God’s best. Instead of being upset over who’s not for you and frustrated over who’s trying to make you look bad, ignore them. Jealous people can’t keep you from your destiny; Bitter, resentful, vengeful, small-minded people can’t stop your purpose. That’s not a battle you have to fight. Trust Him to handle it.….

Discrimination, not even in the legal sense, is more nuanced than some different than others.

"the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of ethnicity, age, sex, or disability."

Unjust or prejudicial does an awful lot of work in that sentence. Is it unjust that some people who have more chips dont get access to free chips? I wouldnt say that was prejudicial on its face, the category of people being quite literally 'the haves' vs 'the have-nots'.

If we keep citing the Bible and God, we kinda sorta have to define just and right, correct? Why would God have the meek inherent the Earth, isnt that unjust/prejudicial to the Pharoahs?

U mean those arias aren’t market value? I have not ordered from Tina but pretty sure the chips are close to market. Didn’t get my calculator involved but aren’t these like 20 to 40 cents each depending on size and how many are purchased? I think the OG group buy got a fat deal but I wasn’t buying them for the bucks, they were the only arias chips avail to purchase in the forum at the time and I’m hosting a new location this week was attempting to add a sit and go freeroll for the early birds. Anyways, Lucky for me my DMs imploded and I got some donated so there is not a need anymore from me. God is good. Have a good day and I’m glad there are more anti discrimination peeps out here, keep up the good work.

Access to free chips? It said if you’re looking to expand your set these are for sale. Go back and read the ad. Line 1. That was a sales add. Nothing free about it, and if you had too many chips according to OP you’re officially discriminated on and treated different than others. It’s nonsense to me, always will be, that’s probably why people are currently or considering setting up more than one account.

As for inheriting the earth, don’t get it twisted. It still belongs to God. We didn’t inherit a thing, it’s still HIS my man. Join the movement.

See, you're failing to understand discrimination again; "officially discriminated on" is wrong. Why is that designation unjust or prejudicial? Just being different isnt inherently unjust.

And oh no no, most of Christianity says if Im not baptized I go straight to hell, so isnt that a category of people treated unjustly due to being in a category? Id say eternal damnation is pretty unjust because I skipped a very important bath.

That’s not the God, or Christianity I worship. Scripture warns us, we all have to watch out for fakes in life. Seems like
“most” could be replaced with “fakes” in your post, and again that’s not my God.

I have entered every one of these type of offerings I have seen, but have never been lucky. Hoping for the 1st....

Very generous offer. Thanks and in please.
 
I've been on this forum for 8 years, I have a ton of chips, but I never get enough. Thanks.
PS: choose someone else, I really don't need them.
PPS: just kidding, I'll pm you my postal address. Thanks for your understanding.

My disdain of organized religion aside, to have all this vague dialogue about "discrimination" in a post simply about providing a giveaway... is pretty bizarre.
