Dear
 Members
 of
 the 
FatWallet 
Community:
 

 
Gofobo 
has 
been 
able 
to 
offer 
access 
to 
advance 
screenings 
and 
other 
promotional
 
events 
offered
 by 
sources 
in 
the 
entertainment 
community. 
These 
sources 
have 
offered
 
specific 
promotional 
opportunities
 for 
our 
membership 
to
 attend
 and
 have
designated
 
codes
 or 
passwords 
that
 allow
 you 
to
 do 
so.
 

 
These
 sources
 have
 set 
up
 the
 same
 opportunities 
with 
other 
promotional
 partners,
i.e.
 
specific
 codes
 for
 their 
membership
 or
 winners
 to 
obtain 
passes.
 In
 these 
instances 
the
 
promotional 
partner
 gets
 value
 from
 posting 
the
 code
 or 
password
 on
 their
 site 
and
 
traffic to
 their
 site 
derives
 the
 benefit 
of 
finding 
the
code.
 

 
When
 Fatwallet
 members
 post 
codes,
 this
 deprives 
the
 original
 promotional 
partner
 
assigned 
the 
code/password 
the 
value 
of
 traffic 
visiting 
their
 site,
 reading
 their
 paper 
or
 
otherwise 
deriving 
value 
from
 working 
with 
these
 sources.
 

 
Our
 content
 sources 
have 
become
 increasingly 
concerned
 with
 the
 posting 
and
 trading
 
of 
passes,
 code
 words 
or 
passwords 
on
 the 
Fatwallet
 forum.
 This
 has put
 what 
we offer
 
our 
membership
 at 
risk.
 

 
We 
kindly
 ask
 you 
not 
to
 post,
 barter
 or
 sell
 codes
 or
 passwords
 that 
were
 intended
 for
 
other
 promotional
 partners.

 These
 include, 
but
 are
 not
 limited
 to,
 posting 
codes
 from
 
radio, 
print,
 retail,
 and
 online
 partners.

 However,
 we
 encourage
 you 
to
 post links
 to
 
other
 promotional 
partner's
 sites, etc.
 so
 that
 other 
community
 members 
can
 obtain 
the
 
code/passwords 
in 
a
 legitimate 
way
 that 
does
 not 
deprive
 this
 partner
 of
 the
 traffic
 
intended
 for 
their 
promotion.
 

 
Please 
help
 us 
to 
continue 
providing 
you
 access
 to 
advance 
screenings
 and
 other
 
promotional
 opportunities 
by 
adhering
 to
 the 
above 
guidelines.
 

 
Thank
 you
 for 
your
 continued 
support
 and
 patronage
 of
 gofobo.
