Just to clarify, this is open to ALL users. We will be shipping these internationally, so don't be shy!
Hello AnandTech readers and forum regulars! In the spirit of the event, allow me to start things off by introducing myself.
My name is Kevin and I’m the Assistant Community Manager for Purch. For those who missed it, AnandTech became part of the Purch family in December. Since then, we’ve been doing little things to improve the forums and the community (like getting rid of the weekly maintenance) while preserving the essence and feel of the AnandTech forums that so many lifers have come to love.
For quite a few years now, the news and forum sides of AnandTech have been a bit separated. Readers tended to stick to the articles and forum-goers stuck to the forums. This has never been a bad thing, but we think it would be even better if everybody got to know each other and experience the entirety of AnandTech. This is your chance to make it happen.
We’ve set up this introduction thread to help facilitate the blending of the two sides of this awesome community. As an added bonus, we’re going to be giving away ten nifty little AnandTech-branded screwdrivers in the process. These handy tools feature reversible Phillips head/flathead screwdriver heads—in two varying lengths and sizes. Very fancy, even if they don't have sonic capabilities. They can be super handy when working with computers or for general handiwork around the house. Everybody who participates in the thread and introduces themselves becomes eligible to win, regardless of whether they are a newly registered forum user or a lifer with thousands of posts.
Loyal readers, this is your chance to dip your toe into the forum community! Introduce yourselves and look around; the AT forum is home to a robust community of users who love to talk about anything and everything, so we’re sure you’ll find interesting conversations to take part in!
And for forum regulars, this is your chance to greet some potential future peers and perhaps get acquainted with some regulars you may not have interacted with before. Get to know each other, make some new friends; a forum is only as good as its community, so show everybody what makes the AnandTech community so great!
The giveaway will run until the end of August to give everybody plenty of time to participate, but we hope that you’ll all continue with the introductions and networking long after we give out the freebies. Winners will be randomly selected so everybody will have an equal chance to win. No favoritism or bias—all participants will be entered into a randomizer and ten names will be pulled. Winners will be contacted via a forum PM with instructions on how to claim their shiny new tool, so be sure to keep an eye on your inbox!
