IMO - by definition "Pay It Forward" means you get something of value and pay that value forward to someone else. When I see someone take a nice item on the other PIF thread and then post as their item something that's barely worth the postage to send it I am put off. Don't get me wrong, there are many that post much better items than they take (and some that post items when they don't even claim items) but a few (maybe unknowingly) take advantage and use it as a "get something for nothing" type deal - that philosophy is certainly not paying it forward. Personally I always try to post an item that is noticably more valuable than what I claimed. If everyone does this then the thread will be incredible.

Thanks Dave....looks like we'll just have to wait and see what happens. This should turn out to be a good thread once it gets going.

I'm trying to figure if I have something worth PIFing and isn't complete garbage to get this.

I would take it for sure but I've already got stuff going out so I don't wanna claim anything until that deal is done.

Suspension extension is still available as well. I may have to change that up if it doesn't get taken....

Why on earth do we have TWO PIF threads? The first one is crazy enough!

Thanks for starting this thread! If you really want to make it different keep a list of everyone who doesn't follow the rules and post their names

. If you want to make sure people offer up good stuff you might think about adding a rule: If your item isn't claimed within a week you are required to change it or add something to it. Just a thought. Thanks again and good luck!
