U dun really hv to apologize since it's ur GA & u r free to do what u like with them or this thread for that matter. I'm just pissed that some scammers dun respect ur decision. Yes, i talking abt a certain bad apple. Or in this case, bad orange. Lol.
Lastly, i wld like to say if had a daughter & she asked me for money i hv EVERY right to know wat she wants to do with it cos it's MY money aftall & ANY sane father wld not want her daughter to WASTE his money on undesirable things such as drugs. Apparently i expected too much from forum members. Then again, i shd hv known better than to expect logic from scammers. Haha.

I was thinking pretty much along the same lines where, what if she was using the money to buy drugs/alcohol, or something else destructive and/or useless (not that alcohol is useless :)).
I don't have kids, but he seems to think that every time a child asks for money, the parent will automatically give it to them, no matter what. I know my parents certainly didn't buy/give me money to buy everything I asked for when I was a kid.

On the real though, the Lego Millennium Falcon was something I really wanted as a kid, but being $100 (I think it's $150 now), I didn't have the money to buy, nor would my parents get it for me. I remember one Christmas, I told them it was the only thing I wanted. However, when they checked for it, it was "sold out". Now that I'm an adult and have income, I still haven't bought it, but I've certainly thought about it. I'll pick it up from Target, go in my bedroom, lock the door like I was in the 4th grade again, and start building. And it'll be a blast!
Prepost edit: now you have me looking at the Target page for it.

No disrespect to the OP as this is a very nice GA.
But,it's very strange that the same people have turned up here to scam and scab a freebie as in other GA's.
