    hi all, just to confirm you can enter all of the smooth radio comps on different sites, this is the email I've had:

    GMG Radio owns the following stations...

    Century Radio North East
    Century Radio North West
    Real Radio Yorkshire
    Real Radio Wales
    Real Radio Scotland
    Smooth Radio North East
    Smooth Radio North West
    Smooth Radio East Midlands
    Smooth Radio West Midlands
    Smooth Radio Glasgow
    Smooth Radio London
    Rock Radio North East
    Rock Radio Manchester
    Rock Radio Scotland

    You are free to enter competitions on all of these sites if you wish.
    They are open to everyone worldwide.

    So if you were to enter a competition on the website for Smooth Radio
    North East you can still enter a competition on the website for Smooth
    Radio East Midlands. Likewise, you are still free to enter competitions
    on Century Radio North East.

    too many comps..not enough time!

    OK, fair enough, whatever she did was wrong, but do you have to keep going on about it? More to the point, do you all have to keep ganging up on her? I feel very uncomfortable with what is going on. It's like people are trying to hound her off these boards and unless admin does something, some people are going to continue until they have succeeded. IMO, that's wrong and I'm not afraid to admit that I have reported various posts, and will continue to report others if they occur until it stops.

    She has not been banned so why can't you get on with comping and let bygones be bygones?

    I've just popped in for a mild rant ... hope no one minds :D

    I've seen a couple of posts today where relative "newbies" have posted on a comp thread (not just to say thanks but to write a proper English sentence, albeit an unimportant one) thus bumping the thread and someone comes along and has a go at them. Whereas on another post(s) a "regular" posts something equally as unimportant and no one cares :confused:

    None of these people are BG's, just regular posters.

    I'm not a "newbie" so really this shouldn't bother me but for some reason it's niggling! :D

    not sure whether its just me or not but have noticed that the terms and conditions for competitions are sometimes getting posted even if the comp is just for a dvd - I dont really see the necessity in all the terms and conditions as they are all on the website surely? think am just in a moaning way out tonight:D


    I agree, particularly when T&Cs don't say anything important. I think it is important tho that the T&Cs are posted for holiday and travel type comps as, if any of us are lucky to win, then you can easily see what the content of the prize is and the T&Cs might have been removed from the website.

    What do others think?

    I agree with this too, found this happening more and more and no one bats an eyelid if it's a regular

    It doesn't do any good anyway because the poster is unlikely to revisit the thread.
