    check out the comping guide (section 11)- these comps are listed to avoid.

    They usually generate more spam than wins.

    btw - this should be in discussions ;) req'd move

    Hey everyone, I have a question for ya'll. Have any of ya'll used Prizegroups.com before? I signed up yesterday and joined a group to win $100. It says that 1 member out of 10,000 will definitely win $100. I kinda like how upfront they are and I guess we will see which lucky member out of the 10,000 will actually win.

    Let me know if any of ya'll use it and I will add you as a friend.

    Amy

    It sounds very spammy - "5. By being a PrizeGroups member you agree to help us pay for prizes and provide a free social networking service in exchange for receiving advertising from our approved partners in the form of email marketing, onsite banner/text advertising, co-registration, onsite video advertising, newsletter sponsorships & prizegroups sponsorships."

    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

    Amy if your going to go about spamming you may want to avoid lying.

    You say your not married to the owner Colin Bridges. Funnily your facebook seems to say different. God bless the power of google. Self promotion isn't allowed on here so I suggest you bog off
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
