Since you are clearly struggling to justify your rating, here is another example.

The only thing Im struggling with is why you are unable to see that you did something dishonest or at the very least something can be seen as an attempt to deceive. In your world it seems perfectly fine to change your stance on a whim and not be help responsible for your words.

Let's pretend the terms were stated in the OP; that I will pay $15 for someone to find the EXACT sunglasses. Let's say the thread is 6 pages long and somewhere in those 6 pages I state that I no longer plan on paying a reward. Obviously everyone will see the OP but it is unlikely that they will see that the terms have changed, which would be deemed unfair.

Even though the unchanged OP clearly states the terms, I no longer have to pay a bounty because I buried a response in that thread that overrules the original terms?

Is this what you're trying to say? Because if this is so, the mods need to review your account. All I have done in that example is switch the current scenario, thus highlighting your misjudgement.

Good point, there are two ways to see this.

#1 Everyone should keep up to date. People that dont check the updates can only blame themselves. This tends to happen though and most of the time someone will quickly remind them that the terms have changed. Common examples are people trying to join a signature campaign that is no longer accepting new members. This is even missed if its clearly state in the OP.

This also happened in your case:

I think my M.J's were more similar. I looked at the MJ252/S closely and the opening inbetween the temple are to high vertically not across like in OP's photo.

any update on this? did the OP selected and sent the bounty to the one with the nearest or similar to what James Rodriguez is wearing?

This is odd
It's more than 48 hours as stated by the OP and yet no announcement yet of who won or at least the nearest to what OP is looking for

Closest answer wins. I'll leave this thread open for 48 hours and then declare the winner.

You also did not make a single statement after the 48 hours had passed even though you had been online.

OP is online now and maybe he will make an update or an announcement regarding this contest that he hosted.

#2 Changing the terms at a later date to less desirable terms for those working for you puts you in a position that makes sure they know about the new terms. Trying to sneak in new terms in your favor somehow is not exactly what I would call a beacon of trustworthiness.
