            I'm not really sure why you posted this 
 It's always posted by Catowen with the answer once the show is on and options given.
 If she can't post it for whatever reason she makes sure someone is going to do it in her place.
 All this does is mess the boards up and confuse people :rolleyes:
 I posted because I searched and it was not on here so thought I would share I did not know it had not been on TV yet!
 Also there is no such rule which says only certain people can post certain competitions so anyone is free to post and I posted another one last week which she actually missed off. It does not mess up the board as she could have searched for it. Anyway its now been merged so not big deal is it
 I dont think compers care whos posted the comp anyway except those in the little clique.Wins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0

            Dont understand how/why someone would post before the show is actually on!!! 
 If you read you would see I did not know that it had not been shown on TV yet I just came across the competition and thought I would share!Wins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0

 Funny i've looked everywhere in the rules of the site and cannot find this nugget of information0

            Its not a rule its a little clique that think they are above us other compers. I think it is you being petty making out I have done something wrong for posting a competition.
 Martins new forum rules actually mentions such cliques and how they are not tolerated:
 Theres also sometimes a "this is our board" attitude that seems to not want new posters coming in and ruining a pre-established clique - and that goes against the philosophy of the site.Wins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0

 well i disagree, i am not part of any clique on this site and we know that catowen posts these to stop duplications, that is all and majority of people on here respect that
 im also not anti-newbies and find that most of the aggro is coming from well established members:rolleyes:0

            No search is there to prevent duplications she should obey this rule like the rest of us. It was a genuine mistake I posted before the show was on and Im sorry for thinking you would all want to enter such competition, how crazy of me.
 Yes exactly well established members causing the agro here and makign a big deal out of nothing. I thought I left these playground pettyness behind years ago
 Ive learnt my lesson and wont be posting comps until the show has been on TV in future as dont want another troll bashingWins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0

            As far as i am aware, i am not part of any 'clique'.
 However, anyone who regularly enters competitions from this board, knows that Loose Women is a tv comp, and unless you have watched the program, you will not be able to get the answer.
 I always post these (and if i cant, i ask someone else to do it) and they are the type of competition that you cannot search for, because, as i said, you cant post them before they are on, or unless you have seen it - so there is no point in wasting time serching for something you should not be able to find.
 Now, a new person just starting out on these forums might not know that, but people who have been around, even a couple of weeks just might realise this.

 because i dont understand why you posted. You are a regular on this board, and even if you 'stumbled' across the comp, the website says what time the program is on, so why you would post it before the program had even started or that you had actually watched is beyond me.
 It isnt 'my comp' however, as i have said before, because its a tv comp and difficult to search for, if it was a 'free for all' like most comps, then that would mean more work (like today) for the BGs - so as 'most people' do know its me who post these, then we have less duplications. Also, if my computer does go down (i have lost internet connection before and posted a tv comp a few minutes after its been shown) i dont have to panic that someone else is posting, and i cant stop mine being posted as well.
 I know what the new forum rules are saying, but im feeling, at the moment that maybe its the cliques being against me, rather than the other way round, and all im trying to do is share some competitions with others.0

            I only posted it as I coudlnt find it and thought it had been missed off like with one of the Real Deal ones last week. that is all I really do wish people would stop making such a big deal out of it also tbh I dont look at who posts it i just enter and press thanksWins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0
