Should we make the green tick work the same as the red cross?

Hi all,

By popular demand the red cross icon now appears for all threads on the Competitions forum page page. Allowing you to click the icon to change it.

Would you like the green tick button to work the same way?

Or are you happy with how the green tick button presently works?

    IMO the green tick wouldn't need to be on the fourm page as if you have entered you would have had to go via the post anyway.On the topic of the red cross i don't see the point of it?
    If it removed the thread in question from the forum altogether then that would be helpful but now it's just a case of the thread showing a lit red cross.

    I am happy with the green tick as it is, as you have to go into the post to view and enter the competition anyway.

    I like the changes with the red cross, thank you for doing it :)

    Loving the red cross as there's many I wouldn't enter. Green tick fine as is as you need the details from inside the post to enter.

    Leave the green tick, I find it v v v useful. I don't need to open a comp I can see it from outside it. Sometimes I tick comps I haven't entered because I find them attractive on the title but not so when I read the requirements, so I don't really see much point on the red cross but the more help the better. DO NOT TOUCH THE GREEN or I'll be v v v ticked! :)
    Thanks to those who help us to win !

  • The green tick as it is now is extremely useful. I'd feel lost without it tbh :)

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx
  • I really like the green tick, please leave it, but I don'y actually know what the red cross is for.
