    Unfortunately can confirm that is true :(

    ETA: And apparently they are loving 'glitches' in red, makes great speed reading! Change of plan needed possibly ???

    Any suggestions for how we can go "underground" with some of this? We're just serving them up a list of things to fix on this forum, especially when certain things are talked about over and over and over, like the mirror glitch and combining a pinky and ts. Surely the new thing where you can't get a ts on an ss till is to thwart glitches.

    edit: Just read the stuff about white text. Not a bad idea, as long as it's only used once in awhile. But if you use it to explain the glitch each time someone has a question or wants to report how it worked for them, then the pages are filled with what looks like blank spaces -- and it will be pretty obvious pretty quick what was going on. Not to mention we'd be explaining what we were doing and why 30 times a day to newbies or people who had been away from the thread awhile.

    Asking/ explaining things in PMs could help, but the pm system here is so limited that I doubt that would work. We've got to figure something out!

  • Hey dudettes (and dudes :D ),

    I really can't get to any decent branches to use my ts&pinky combos but I really wanted the gwps so I fancy doing a swap if anybody fancies it :o

    I have

    2x pinky
    2x tillspit
    1x 750 points on clinique, lancome, estee lauder, clarins 2 products

    (and various others inc 500points on baby I could spare I guess as I really want gwps)

    I want

    new no7 mens gwp
    new no7 womens gwp
    s&g gwp

    If anybody has an offer pm me. I'm going out later so I could post 1st class today.

    The obvious way I suppose is one pinky/ts combo per gwp but if you want something different let me know.

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE :p

    I'll cover p&p

    EDIT - meant to say that although I will send out today I don't mind if somebody wants to use my pinky/ts to get themselves products and get a gwp free and then send gwp out next week IYKWIM.

    This is a tricky one- we could use the facebook group more for glitches, however there is nothing to stop one of the Boots team of glitch busters pretending to be a MSE'er and asking to be added.
    We could even set up a forum elsewhere if needs be. But again we'd have difficulty in avoiding filling in the spies. Could base it on number of posts, but wouldn't feel happy with this as it would be discriminating against newbies and we were all new once :confused:

    Why don't you make a new facebook group but with a different name? And only let people that are trusted bootsers join it? seems a wee bit ott in my head but it might be the only way to stop them catching on, atleast they would have to post to get their name recognised. etc etc.
  • How about a website of our own? We could PM people the name of it so people reading this need not find out? I can easily set up a new website to do this on. Let me know what you think.

    The problem with facebook is some people who are at work will not be able to access the site as it will be blocked by there employer.
