I was thinking about where people ask questions here, and I don't think this works as well as it should.

Questions can appear anywhere, on the main competition Board, on IWIWIW, on the discussion thread and I assume also in the Compers Arms.

I have tried a couple of times asking a question on the discussion thread, but they went unanswered, and from what I've seen, this happens quite a lot. When people ask something on IWIWIW they are much more likely to get a reply.

I think this is because a question written on a thread gets pushed back too quickly. It's also hard to follow different questions written on the same thread. I suspect that this why people use IWIWIW for this. There people open a new thread each time, and follow-up posts are added to that individual thread. It's easy to follow, and doesn't get pushed back so quickly.

So, I wondered what people thought about scrapping the discussion thread and Compers Arms, and instead adding a Discussion Board to the forum. That should keep IWIWIW for posts about wins, and would give a clear and obvious place for people to ask questions, chit-chat, or anything they wanted.

What do others think? And should I have written this on IWIWIW? Here it will soon be pushed back and therefor will probably not seen by that many compers? Which will kind've validate what I'm saying

Plus, if we had a discussion Board, people could subscribe to threads they open, and be notified of replies.

Hi, I see that a lot of compers have a list of their winnings at the bottom of their posts:)

Could someone tell me how this is done, is it some sort of signature block that you can set up in the profile or do compers just copy & paste everytime:eek:

Many thanks - Tiny taff

Hi all

Just looking for some advice on setting myself up as a comper. Would it just be a case of setting up an email address and then coming on here every day and signing up for new comps?

Thanks

Kat

Hi, i only started comping yesterday and got a whole 33 comps done yesterday which i was quite impressed with. It is still a little daunting but the people on here seem to be so helpful, i always click the thanks button after i have used their info.
Set up your new email and away you go. Its all i have done.
Just need to get a little more organised with an autofill tool
Welcome and good luck xx

Near the top of the page, you'll find a menu bar with "Quick Links" near the right. If you click there, you'll find a link to edit your signature
