Or of it's something that has to be taken on specific dates - I always appreciate someone popping salient facts in a post underneath the main one.

Yes that is allowed as it is relevent to the comp

Purple x was a personal oppinion on the material used as the prize, not relevant

This is a joke, right?

It WAS relevant to the comp! Some people would choose not to enter based on whether the fur was real or not - that is just as relevant as me not entering a comp because it's too far to travel

You may think so,

but Purples own oppinions on entering the comp or not due to what it is made of is not relevent

So I can put lets say.....

I'm not entering this handbag comp because it's made of leather?

I don't consider that a useful bump either

That is until the powers that be introduce a incentive to not bump like being banned for so long after the second time they do it

You'll be the first one to be banned though cos you bump the most :rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl:That made me laugh alot :T:T

Just my thoughts but when I click on a comp and it has a post saying "please do not bump" I find this way more irrating then reading a quick post whether it saying thank you or some new information.

I don't understand why anyone needs to be stalking the forum on the lookout for bumped threads just to insult and embarrass the poster, we are all here for the same purpose so lets just get on with our own comping and try to remember we were all newbies once upon a time!!!

P.S I quite enjoy reading the odd post here and there, reminds me we are all human and not a bunch of robots sat behind a computer :rotfl:

If you search 'sorry to bump' there's loads and loads of posts with people apologising for bumping.
I feel sad that the posters had to put "sorry to bump" - why should people need to apologise for wanting to add extra info - and the reason is because too many people are ready to jump on to 'bumpers' (who aren't in fact bumping, but merely adding relevant and helpful info).

Right then I am off to do other things now, if I have time later I will come back & reply to you all.

It has once again been lovely talking to you all. I hope I am congratulating you all in the I Won section really soon

Be Lucky xxxx

Who says I don't? Maybe I chose not to further bump the thread!

You seem to be doing this as it's easier for you and the way you enter competitions - maybe now is a time to think of others and take on board that people are more bothered by your bumping than the initial bump.

It's like talking to a comping police brick wall.

(and that is a polite phrase compared to what I could use).

Purple x preferance to not entering a competition because it was made of real fur is of no relevance. Everyone who clicks the comp has the chance to read what the prize is which can be done when the comp is clicked on

So no need what so ever for purples bump

It WAS relevant to lots of people, that is the whole point you are ignoring!

Otherwise we may as well have lots of holiday comps with no info in etc.

They shouldn't hopefully when it settles down & people bump less it will not be such a problem it is now
