I'm not sure why others would want countless posts about which codes someone had used. Makes no sense to me. "I used 5tajdkayuii2uyiy!" "And I just used gYt7ua8A8%jlKIdj" does not in any way help me, nor, I suspect, anyone else. Can you memorize them? How do you keep track? Seriously. It takes far less time to simply enter codes at checkout until you come across one that isn't used, than to scroll through page after page of posts on this forum and jot down obscure letter-number combinations that someone claimed. By the time you've sorted out your list, already more codes have been claimed!

Meanwhile, contest time at this forum is lively and interesting, but it could use a few less posts.

I have no problem with others posting 10% - 30% codes. It's most likely a waste of energy, but maybe there are a lot of occasional lurkers who use them.
