Is it time ?

I don't do the Twitter or Facebook comps and now seem to spend and waste so much time wading through the pages looking for comps I can enter.

Is it time to separate them off like the postal/text ones ? I wonder if the wonderful team backstage are working on this.

    I like having the twitter and facebook comps on the main page as that's the only forum I get the chance to visit when I sit down to enter competitions.

    Me too, having different boards would make it even more confusing for newbies too.

    I'm with Cezzy on this one. I spend half my time ticking the red crosses next to TW & FB comps.

    Yes, I have noticed loads more twitter comps lately and they don't interest me so I would quite like somewhere separate to post both FB and twitter comps too!

    It was agreed to move the daily mags to their own thread so maybe changes could be made to the twitter and FB comps?

    I would agree too, I don't do Twitter comps and very few FB ones
  • I know other sites have there twitter and facebook comps together, away from other type of comps as not all people do them

    I spend more time putting red cross next to twitter and facebook ones, then i do enter any of them.
  • I'd like to keep them where they are but then I enter them! :) I would think the majority do enter them rather than not but may be wrong, of course!

    I don't enter any of the hundreds of win tickets/DVD/holiday comps but don't find it a nuisance just to put a cross next to them. I like the mixture of the board, stops it getting to be a bit of a bore ;)

    I don't enter twitter competitions and only enter facebook one's for companies I use/like already (so very few mainly coffee shops and high street stores). Like people have said I seem to red cross most comps on a page as they are linked to social media.

    However, I am happy to have them listed on the regular board, I don't really mind crossing them off now you don't have to go into the post to red cross it.
