Bumping Advent Threads

So to clarify, it is definitely Edinburgh Castle?

Well.... think I might wait for a further 20 people to confirm that it really is Edinburgh Castle, before I go ahead and submit my answer.
You can never be to sure...

I wonder if maybe some people open the advent threads en masse and work through them so they don't realise that they're duplicating something that's already there until after they post

I was actually going to privately message you Tinktinktinkerbell to say a HUGE THANK YOU for helping out on so many of the Advents. When I log in each morning, I can see you have been working hard through them! :A You are an Angel - thank you.

I am not having a dig a genuine helpers - just those who seem to be taking the mick are are 'deliberately' bumping. I get easily stressed due to both mental and physical health problems at the moment. I am trying to stay positive but it is not always easy. Users should think more - not everyone can just 'laugh it off'.:(

oh yeah i totally agree

if the answers been posted and the poster is unsure the one or even two confirmers would be enough, 10 people confirming is not needed

i'll do anything to help out on here and if you need any help with anything or just want to talk then my inbox is always open, i hate to see people struggling

I suffer from the same things as you, BlueBella. And the advents have been quite stressful for me. I find it quite unpleasant to see negativity on the boards. I feel it might be more appropriate to PM the people who are deliberately bumping and ask them to stop instead of ranting on the threads. I totally agree with you that there are more posts than needed but this is supposed to be a positive community. I never come to Compers Corner but I have been feeling so low trying to deal with these advents that I came here to get a cheer up from what is usually an uplifting community. Things seem a little cold around these parts, though.
