  • Wont be entering this comp. Fair enough if you dont want your questions answering but puts people like me off visiting the site of the accuser. Thanks to the OP for posting anyway.

    We have shared answers for many years and yet there are still competitions.

    If you want people to visit different pages perhaps you need to change the sort of competitions you run.

    I am connected to the competition. And just want to point out that by sharing the answers here you are undermining the chance of there being competitions like this in the future, hence shooting yourselves in the feet...

    You see, although you think you being really kind and lovely by sharing the answers with the world, you are encouraging people to come here and look for the answers, rather than to visit the prize providers websites. Prize providers are not likely to carry on offering prizes if nobody visits their sites...

    There are so many prizes to win for free, from so many lovely brands it does not seem much for them to ask you to visit their site to find an answer... The idea being that you might learn something about the brand and their values etc... or possibly discover something new. Just a few clicks, in return for the chance to win some great prizes.

    You may not care... you might like shooting your own feet, if so, please carry on sharing the answers! If you do care, and you are entering into the spirit of the competition then hopefully you will understand that sharing the answers in this way is a pretty short sighted thing to do.

    Please think for a moment before you unleash the full vengeance of the anonymity which you hide behind in this forum. I have seen you take people to pieces here before and then regret it in the long run.

    I do not want to disagree with you, and I am not questioning your right to share competition answers here, just pointing out that if you carry on, it is most likely there will not be a competition next year.

    Have a lovely Christmas!

    A simple please don't post the answers to this advent competition would have been good enough without the lecture

  • agreed with the others, i disagree with the posting of answers affecting the traffic of the site. i think if people like your brand/want to buy, they'll do that from an effective frontpage/competition entry page without having to trawl through your site "learning the brand."

    would've entered but found you completely condescending and quite cowardly to hide yourself behind an anonymous username rather than just say "i'm an employee, we'd rather you didn't share answers. thank you."
    just starting out comping,
    good luck to all! :heart2:

    november wins: maoam headphones, maoam stripes,

    The first post has been updated. You can bow out gracefully now as I'm subscribed to this thread :p

    Funny, I don't see you telling people who you are...

    I really enjoy the attitude of this forum, it's so loving. You really know how to welcome new members who aren't used to being here...

    So you have no right to speak for ExtraEthical? Or are you the site owner?
