I no understand. You does help? :/

Certain answers are outright satire, meant to highlight the irrationality of certain declarations and the double-standard of how people view blacklist versus whitelist, even though both solely act as filters.
Primarily, however, this thread is meant to give a well-earned laugh to the users who've had to put up with a regular output of this sort of material, and many answers were chosen just for that effect.
( Just think, I could have included a "No reason"? Seriously??? You are a giver of the highest order. Welcome to whitelists everywhere...' option. :'D )
.
I apologize to anyone who finds this thread more annoying than amusing.
..unless you're one of the silly individuals whom have me whitelisted. You were asking for this, then. ~(°ヮ°~)

I keep being whitelisted without reason. What do you all think of that? :/

Maybe if you'd start leeching more and stop making so many giveaways you'd get onto more blacklists and get kicked out of more groups.

Look, I leech the best I'm able- I can't help it if other people are better at it than I am!
Everyone has their own talents [and lack thereof], you shouldn't treat me special for just one of them.
I mean, would you whitelist me because I'm bad at math, or a sport, or something?

Really, now, this is clearly discrimination. :|

Fine, I took you off this time. But it's the only chance you're getting.

Keep doing those gibs and you're going right back to the list, forever.

I can neither guarantee a cessation of gibs, nor of glib[ comment]s.
Perhaps give me something a bit easier, like "no more trying to juggle while lacking in sobriety"?
That never ends well, anyway..

Question: If I tried to influence your decision to keep me unwhitelisted by bribing you with cake, would that succeed, or rather predictably backfire on me? :/

It depends. If you poison the cake, I might be convinced to keep you off the list.

They're using that little known definition of power abuse, "Not doing whatever is most favorable for me."

That said, you all really need to stop flagging me down to invite me into your houses for free cake- I feel gluttonous. :'P

How dare you apologize to those mundane fools! If you are annoyed and not amused use the back button and free yourself from this perceived hell!
I was very surprised this was not number one in the polls ""It it is always whitelisters who are in the wrong, abusing their dreadful power of giving away free stuff and whitelisting people for absolutely no reason, and generally making a mockery of a site that should be about gifting games to everyone"" I did waver tho almost went with Potato ratio. Followed my gut.

Lol homestuck option.
Also, I mostly limit my whitelist to those horrible people who are inconsiderate enough to say thanks on my giveaways. Which means very few people have to worry about being on it.

I'm glad someone finally commented on that one- it was too amusing a result; I laughed a few times over it, myself. :)

And eh, I've got you whitelisted for being one of the few great people on Groupees, so you're from an even more distinct minority. =O

Massive necro bump. I whitelisted you just now.
My reason for whitelisting you, as well as everyone else on the list, is your massive amount of giveaways on this site.

Because of your good ratio I would probably concider you to be a user I could whitelist, even if Im on your blacklist.

But I dont really do WL giveaways so dont see the point. I have no users on either list.
