Got a few spare minutes? Help keep the forum tidy!

Just wanted to say thanks really for everyone who pitched in, and thanks also to Glad who finished off. It's nice to see that the tweaked Expired button is really helping, certainly on the few I bumped (not sure I should say that!) that had finished early, within 10 minutes they were moved.

Don't go breathing easy now that we're all up to date though If you've got a spare bit of time tmrw feel free to expire the ones that end today and so on and so forth. Don't feel you have to though, for me personally, I see it as my little way of giving back to the forum, as I don't post many comps (I've done like 3?)

I guess on the plus side as there will only be one day's worth to go, and if we all pitch in like today, a lot more will move instead of being spread out over several hundred comps, which should bring a bit more satisfaction to expiring the comps, instead of endless clicking and seeing the thread stay.

Once again though guys and gals, awesome job on helping out *pat back smiley* Let's see how tomorrow works out!

Hi I read through this post a couple of hours ago then got sidetracked with comping! I think this a great idea and have been making sure I press expire on the dead ones I've comp across to try and help, I've just come across the following thread that is a dupe and thought it might be useful to post the link here so that others can expire it too.

It's moved over, Alaina

Unless they've expired, surely Dupes should be merged rather than expired. People run the risk of entering both if one is moved to Game Over?

Exactly right Sue, it's what I'd do. However the post wasn't a dupe, just on the Spam list.

If there's a post without an end date but it's a dupe, should it be merge requested or allowed to fall into GO?

Can I just say that people need to be more aware when clicking expired, I posted a comp this morning that some kind souls have clicked expired on and it has been moved to GO, end date is today and the comp is still live, so not really fair for other members, and there are no BG online now for me to get it moved back
If your going to click expired can you please make sure it actually has!

Needs more than 1 person to click expired before it is moved, I shall throttle you later
