I have 2:
1. Captchas where they want them entered in a certain format but don't stipulate it. If they're case sensitive, say so
2. Address forms that require all lines to be filled in when your address doesn't have that many lines

Comps that insist on you using a mobile number. I prefer to keep that number for select family / friendsWorse things will have happened in the world today..."The only thing that really matters, it to love and to be loved."0 -

Brill thread :T
Can I reserve the right to come back when I've thought of more? But for now I'll just do one.
When the comps that require the most effort seem to be the ones for the smaller prizes.I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apology
THIS IS ME!
When you talk down to others it says more about you than them.0 -
Getting an email with the name of the comp as the subject only for the body of the email to be 'unfortunately' 'sorry' 'better luck next time' etc0

If I think there's too much to do on a comp for a relatively small prize or something that Id like, but not something I need or want badly I dont bother entering.
I saw a rafflecopter for a £10 voucher once and there was loads to do with daily entries. I decided it wasn't worth all that work to get a voucher for a shop I hardly ever go into.Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday
