I really think that rule 1.7 needs to be amended !!!!!!!!!!! And I think most of the mods will agree!!!!!!!!!!
All kidding aside, us mods cant enter the give aways for a very good reason. Goc wishes to avoid the impression of favoritism, if a mod wins a contest, even legitimately, it doesnt really look good. To avoid this, we simply cant enter. We are aware of this before we become moderators. For one, I think its a great way to handle things. Besides, jwire said he will buy me bacon so its all good
In!
What an amazing giveaway! Some lucky member is going to be very, very happy; I hope it's me!!!
Oh, and if I win, I will send each and every Mod 5lbs of bacon!!!

I'm pretty confident about GOC's privacy policy and it being respected.
However, like SantaClawz, I have concerns. No internet site is totally immune to breaches, hacks or data theft. If 1000 members enter the contest and the data is stolen, that's 1000 addresses in the field which the robbers know there are guns at. I don't want my address on that list, thanks.
SantaClaws suggestion is a good one. You should think of a way of making this safe for the participants as much as for GOC.
Ok, before this winds up heading like another giveaway did in the past where a member carried on about privacy concerns, there is a simple solution, if you do not want your info out there at all, dont join the giveaway contest. Our privacy policy is as clear as we can make it, and also as secure. The fact that we do these giveaways on a regular basis sort of requires we verify information. Internet identities are not as secure as people would think, just accessing any site logs your ip address, which can lead to all kinds of discoveries.
I am not bashing those with questions, however as I said, the solution is simple, dont join he contest if your that concerned. This isnt a thread about debating the policy or anything else, it is a giveaway thread, and like jwire stated, with any giveaway, esp firearms, certain details need to be provided.

Don't enter then.
Its part of the giveaway, don't like it don't enter.
Anyone that has a problem with it front up $2700 and do your own giveaway, just saying.
The site is secure and so is the data, no one is forcing you to enter, but if you want to then follow the rules.
