Please stop moving grabbits to the Argos board

Why is it necessary to move offers that people have posted in the grabbit board to the Argos sub-board?

I happened to see a posting about a freeview offer on the grabbit board - I went back to look at it later when I had more time and it had been moved to the Argos board. The same thing happened when I posted a Furby offer that I had seen in Argos - it was quickly swept out of the way into the Argos board and would not be seen by nearly as many people as on the usual grabbit board.

Why is it that anything to do with Argos is moved - but posting about other shops such as Tesco are not. You could argue that other shops could have their own sub-board - Tesco for example is the subject of a vast number of grabbit posts.

Surely the idea of a grabbit posting is to point out to people where they can find a particular offer , by moving all the Argos grabbits away, they will not be seen unless everyone interested in grabbits routinely checks the Argos board as well as the usual grabbit board , taking twice as long.

I see no problem with keeping the Argos board for discussion about Argos generally and locating specific offers etc. - but moving all Argos grabbits out of the main forum just devalues it - so please leave them there

Right - I'm ready for the counter-arguments!

I have to agree with what you are saying. I look at the grabbit board but very rarely the Argos board, so yeah you are 100% correct people will miss these posts if they are moved to the Argos board.....im proof of that.

I never think of going to the Argos thread, but maybe i should start eh.
