taking a break from comping

Zanzib · 23 March 2013 at 9:30PM

Enjoy your break Tinks, you really deserve it.

And a very big thank you for all you do here. :A

I'm finding that the dallies are getting boring too and after next week I'm going to limit it to a few of the mags that still offer a variety rather than shared across the mags.

Ive been considering taking a break from comping as I found I was getting stressed about finding the time to enter them, now if I dont have time to enter I dont get stressed. Although I must be weird as its the dailies I make sure I do before any others.

This is me too!! Quite frequently I have a few days where I just don't get near the computer (eg. if hubby has long weekend off work, or kids are off and hogging it for Minecraft!!) and I get a bit stressy about falling behind with my comps, but on these days I just make sure I get my dailies done and then if I get a spare half hour I go through one or two pages of comps. Nearly always ends up though that the day everyone else is back at school / work, I spend the entire day catching up!!!

It's a difficult decision between cutting down n stopping completely.

Having a day off means you can feel stressed trying to catch up.

Maybe just stick to the weekly magazines. (Chat/PMU/That's Life, FH, Bella, Tv Choice, TAB, Real People etc.) so as to keep a hand in and can enter loads in a short time.

Good luck with your decision and hobbies

As others have said- perhaps cut back? I'm not alone in stopping doing the mag dailies now they take so long !
I've also decided that the OCD approach I had before was stopping me enjoying real life, so if I'm having fun and miss some comps, so what? Life is for living!
Perhaps ask someone else to take over posting the mags for a while? I know from the times I haven't posted a comp I've usually done straight away that there are plenty of folk keen to have a go.
Maybe you've enjoy it more if you ease off?

Plagiarism is a CRIME !!

if you want to hurry up and get enough posts so you can start to spam us with links, then go congratulate some winners on the

The I won! I won! I won! Board

you'll feel better for it

why would anyone copy and paste a previous comment? that is so bizarre!! if u did want to up comments left I'm sure u could write a quick one in two mins flat. Am I missing something here?

Sheer idleness:D

Plus the internet is a mad place at times.:rotfl:

Whoops just C&P'd your post.

My excuse is I'm trying to increase my "Thanks" count and post count.

All I want is the Rosettes:rotfl:
Just off to post in "I won" to get nearer to the rosettes ;-)

Got 'em now :-)

Every one of their posts that I looked at was a copy and paste of a previous post in the same thread (several on old threads as well), maybe a spammer looking to post enough to add live links later?

Our attack dogs will be launched at the appropriate time:rotfl:

I stopped the Magazine Dailies a while ago, for the amount of time and effort I was putting in compared to the normal comps I just decided it wasnt worth it.

Like the others said I would skip those ie wotv and such and do the normal ones
