And therein lies a main reason why they appear to be no longer continuing.
Is it? Are you really saying this site is abandoning a scheme because some people thought it was a good idea and fair and worthwhile and signed up to participate?
I mean it's a fair cop on my part but is it really as bad and sinister as you make it sound? Many people read this site without registering, and I was among them, coming here occasionally to read the latest news etc.
Discovering and wishing to participate in what I saw as a really fair and constructive, and overall marvellous FV ticket exchange scheme, I signed up to be able to post.
I then deliberately did not ask for any tickets last season, so as not to be an irresponsible user whom nobody knows. I instead took time to post widely on a variety of subjects, and get to know people and let people get to know me and hopefully see that I was reasonably OK and trustworthy.
My plan was to start asking for tickets at some point this season, having first made a home here. Looks like that is not to be, which is remarkably bad timing on my part. Still, I'm here now and have woven myself somewhat into the fabric of the place, so I guess I'll be sticking around regardless. Hope that's OK with you
