I completely agree with you. I think the 3 daily/weekly/monthly threads are fine butwish the overall sub forum wasn't there. Much easier if they are all in once place and like you say how do you categorise them all?

Soomeone mentioned earlier about if a company has their comps posted on a certain day and lasting for a certain length of time being moved to regs but that would just be confusing to categorise. Screenrush for example are usually posted on a monday and usually last 2 weeks but sometimes there are some posted on weds/thurs/fri etc.. and only last 8/9/10 days. Would they go in regs? wtwtk is usally posted on 1st of the month and last until end of month but sometimes are post mid month and only last a week? Categorising every comp will just become ridiculously confusing and tbh most of this discussion has actually confused me more as to what should be there!

how about if regular meant regular so if there's any irregularity then main board, that will keep the regs board just for threads where the comp occurs daily or same day/date every week/month,

as the advent thread is a sticky on the main board, the threads it links to could go to regs now??

having all comps on the main board could potentially bring its own problems, looking at the regs board now, 36 pages, about 80% are still live, so you would have another 30 or so pages added onto the main board, most of them don't have an end date so a possible 750 threads with no end date in the title.

Many thanks for taking the time out to answer my post Glad I know that you are extremely busy

by your own summation we would see a 10% increase to the pages on the main board not a great amount I'm sure you will agree

and I can't really see how the comps with no end dates would cause a problem they could be guessed as is now on the main board or there could be a stickie for comps with no end date

All comps with an end date could be done in the normal way i:e E:
and tagged at the end (Daily) (Weekly) (Monthly) (FB) Facebook (Twitter) (Advent) thus making it easy to find the comps when searched, the amount of space in the title could also be adjusted so that you would still have the space to post the details of the comp prize

and a new sticky could be created advising people how to do the end tags

Sorry but if u knew it was in advents, why ask about it being moved to gillas dailies?

It needs a thread to link to, I can't just take the link to the site as:

A) The op deserves the recognition for finding the comp
Often answers are needed in advent comp
C) Not everyone uses the advent thread

I didn't post it so why it's on main board is not down to me, The poster that posted it is fairly new and has obviously tried to help all that are trying to win on that comp, There are many comps of a similar nature on the main board, the daily mail xmas cottage etc.

well, i must be a bit thick or something :rotfl:

'cause this one says gilla has added it to the dailies but it's still on main board being bumped most days

Gilla, Just posts a link to the comp, the comp is on the main board so her link will go there x It doesn't have 2 threads x
