Re: Gifts and Prize's Galore: Only for the Gifted and Gift Guru's? ):
I agree with this for personal reasons, but I also see what Justin is saying.
(if you want to see part of my "personal" reason, view my giftz on my profile...)
Re: Gifts and Prize's Galore: Only for the Gifted and Gift Guru's? ):
When you are in the GE, you have already established a level of trust for yourself. You are responsible enough and trustworthy enough to send KP gifts without scamming people, and completing the deal all the way through. The same sending is required in contests, so the staff has decided that only gifted and guru members may host real prize contests.
If you would like to do one, you could either:
A) Join the GE [it's great!!]
B) Team up with a gifted member for a contest[the gifted member has to open the thread, though]

On second though, maybe you can go through this test to see if your trusted enough to do a contest. XD
The test would be a good idea! Also, they already do have a section for us Lil' Kinz, Webkinz, and Gift Trainees. But we can only have WI Bucks and PSF's for prizes
Re: Gifts and Prize's Galore: Only for the Gifted and Gift Guru's? ):
Because not all members are "trustable" (if thats a real word xD). So they want only the Gift Gurus and the Gifted to hold them. That's why they have the Members for Food and WI Bucks sections (:

Re: Gifts and Prize's Galore: Only for the Gifted and Gift Guru's? ):
I agree with what Justin said. If you want to be able to host a contest then you should apply to become a trainee and to become gifted. Its really fun and you make a whole bunch of new friends! (:
