    It does make sense to have a regular poster for these ITV comps and most people who have been on here for a while know this but I think you have to excuse a (relative) newbie for not knowing this and trying to help.

    It was more what was said on the other thread that was a bit rude really for a newbie to a regular poster.

    No, I hadn't read that, seems both posters have been a little 'sharp' with each other now.

    I still stand by what I said though that newbies shouldn't really be blamed for not knowing that some comps have regular posters. I am sure most are only trying to help and I really don't know the answer to situations like this.

    Although it does seem a little odd the the newbie has copied CC's exact template to post this so obviously knew that CC posts them
    Hmmmmmm

    Posted at the same time then straight away posted CC's was a dupe. Said CC should have checked before posting. All very rude for a newbie.

    If they did it on purpose then they are loving everyone bumping this thread & carrying it on instead of leaving it to disappear down the forum posts.

    If it was done in error lesson learnt
