    Why did you post the T&Cs. No one asked for them, 180+ have entered without them being on here. It just seems a pointless bump.

    Full agreement here.I just can't see the point of needless bumping.My pet hate is when an old post is brought back via a "thank you " type bump.I've disqualified myself from a few comps when that has happened.I should pay attention to my thanks but bumping just doesn't help.

    There's a method in my madness.

    The only T&Cs I post (unless they have an end date in which hasn't been noticed by OP) is for holiday type comps where the T&Cs would be useful for any comp winner to refer to.

    I also can't bear the "thank you for posting" posts or T&Cs that have nothing useful to say. I thought the holiday T&Cs were quite useful tho.

    This is another useless bump but I felt compelled to agree with posting holiday T&C's as they are useful and after the competition has finished may not be accessible to the winner to view. Therefore being here means we see what we should be getting and can query things.
    Maybe if an OP of a holiday comp could post them at the time there would be no need to bump? (just a suggestion)
    Thank you to everyone who posts comps! :A
    I would like to be lucky,healthy & happy in 2020! :T
