    Apologies for bumping!

    there is now a subject header on the comp page
    Send your answers to [EMAIL="simonstabler@aol.com"]Rhythm & Booze [/EMAIL] by August 15, quoting "RNB Stig Competition" in the subject heading - remembering to include your name and full address.
    Best of Luck :)
  • could you lot of cheating gits just give it a rest. The questions and the subject heading were changed sometime ago. Is it really that hard to read the article then answer it truthfully?

    I'm all for you screwing over big business, but you're screwing over someone with less than you here!

    No problem rhythmnbooze.
    If you want it can be made clear for future comps that no details other than the entry page are to be posted ie no answers or email addresses etc or maybe you'd prefer if no comps at all were posted.This is done for a few sites on here including "All in London " & "The Hunting Ground"
    Reasonably easy to arrange if you send a pm to a BG.I for one have no wish to "screw you over ",as you so eloquently write.
  • I didn't know until I launched the comp that I'd have to cover my back from a bunch of cheats. If anyone bothered to visit the link they'd realise that that page has gone and the new one has had to have terms and conditions that expressly cover you thieves!

    Personally I hadn't entered but after your diatribe rather glad I did not.I've outlined the options available to you plus your terms probably cover you pretty well.
    Cheers
  • I'm sorry if you think I'm unreasonable but I complained about this post the moment I found it (i never knew about money saving expert until I did) and got a smart arsed email back telling me there was nothing I could do about it. Even after changing the link and questions I still get everything copied from this post.

    Don't get the thing about the terms covering me though?

    rythmnbooze a few other companies like their competitions being posted on here without the answers or email links as it generates people through their sites and makes it known to a lot more people who maybe would never have heard of it. As WeeOwen67 has said you can request that the only thing posted is the competition details and nothing else, or make it that you don't want your site on here at all. Also I take offence at being called a thief, I haven't even entered and will not do so to any of your comps, in fact I don't even know what your site is about as I'd never heard of it before today.

    Re the terms I had not visited your site as did not feel I wished to.From what you wrote earlier I just presumed that you had placed a clause in it to ensure no MSE "thieves" were able to steal the prizes that you had on offer.
    I do not know who you emailed but if a promotor does not wish answers & email addresses placing on here they do not tend to get posted.
    If you search this forum with the two examples I have given above you will see the that this is so.
    I'll move on from this post now & wish you good luck.
