    In one way no it doesn't matter as anyone is allowed to post any comp but on the other hand yes it does as can you imagine if for instance loads of people thought they would like a shot at posting the ITV comps that Cat does?
    There would be lots of dupes several times a day(on top of what there already is) making more work also for the BG's:)

    Sorry Welsh but i don't agree that the comps board is known for being this way anyway

    We will have to agree to disagree on this matter.

    Does it really matter who posts what comps!!

    This type of comment really dismays me!!

    I don't know why, I wasn't rude. I politely explained that Dalkirst posts these, which he does every day. It's pointless them being posted more than once.

    AND I said thanks for posting-whats the problem???

    Just one person who seems to have a problem with this board - you didn't do anything wrong. :)

    If one comp is already covered by someone who never misses, I think it's quite ok to politely tell someone so they don't waste their time duplicating it, and can hopefully find some new ones to post instead. :)

    There are many many times when a comp is posted by someone who doesn't do it usually and nothing is said because anyone can post any comp - the comment was only posted here because it was a dupe - but of course welshdeedee conveniently ignores the hundreds of times when nothing is said, and has to comment on this thread as proof of the non existent attitude/problems of the comps board :rolleyes:
