Etsy guide to what is nice and what is not:

If you say "I'd like a little more variety on the FP, please", that is MEAN!
If you say "gee, John Doe sure is on the FP a lot", then you are bashing Joh Doe and all the people who are on the FP daily.
But if you say "Stop whining, if you're not on the FP that just means your pictures suck and don't work hard enough", then you are NICE!

in other words, it's pretty much the opposite of what defines "nice" in real life.
Etsy= bizarro world

also: if you can count, then you are mean.
"If you dont like it, leave" is considered a nice thing to say, in etsy bizarro world.
Calling someone's treasury "bullshit" is NICE!

oh and also:
When 20 pro-status-quo members simultaneously swarm a thread and tear the OP to shreds, that's not a gang.
When 20 pro-diversity people who never heard of eachother before start separate threads over the course of a month, all noticing the same enormous elephant in the room, that is a gang.

If FP bingo didn't work, people wouldn't do it. Big fat DUH.

Was the treasury bingo too mean for everyone?

It was funny because it was true.
Since when is it so horrible to state the obvious?
