Clicking Expired Instead Of PMing A BG For A Merge?

I'm probably in the minority but I often comp by prize or by site - for example, "win a car" or "itv.com" (ever the optimist). I get a list of mixed Game Overs and Competitions Times. I ignore the Game Overs and click on the Competitions Times because I'm used to doing that and getting live comps as a result. I can't rely on that recently and it's slowing me down. It may be just the way my brain works, but I can't read end dates as fast as I can read "Competitions Time"

In response to a (******) post in another thread Blulu shows how you can get rid of everything except the competitions time posts.

There is a really good chance that I am missing something here, cos I'm easily confused, but do you know that if you do an advanced search and remove the tick for searching on child forums that it will only show posts in the main board - i.e. it will not show those in GO, IWIWIW and so on.

Now then, if I wasn't an atheist, that might actually be helpful

Just substitute your own username for Lord It works I'm atheist too

I click expired when I see a comp thats expired, its not that hard to do,

I also pop a post on it saying clicked expired etc, I also share via f/b via the f/b icon and share it as a lot of friends on f/b are also on mse so they see a link I've shared and click expired, quite often I've gone back to check the link on my f/b wall to see its been expired

Oh I really think some people need to chill their beans

Good question

I guess we wait for a reply from them or a reply from the forum management team I emailed the other day

Although I probably won't be able to let you know what the forum management team say because it's against forum rules to comment on private PM's. But I will ask if it's O.K to pass on useful info when they reply

Hi, no reply as yet. TBH, I'm not necessarily expecting one. I worded it more to point them to this thread in the hope that they will comment. Neither has logged on since though.

Without wanting to come across as a stalker, I noticed that Divadee logged on yesterday. Assuming she got my pm - it may be that she has lots to catch up on and is yet to respond, or it may be that she has decided not to. MrsTine has not logged on since 20/07.

I was very much hoping that Divadee would at least answer about whether we should/shouldn't pm her about BGing things - and she still might, so my suggestion is that we all leave it a while longer to give her a chance to reply - though you might feel differently, of course.

If D-Dee and/or MrsT choose not to respond, then I hope/assume that there is a reason, and that it means something is being sorted.

Personally, I don't know what else we can do? I certainly wouldn't want to harass anyone - we never know what anyone is having to cope with. Although it would be helpful to know for definite whether we should or shouldn't contact each BG.

I was doubtful they would respond to be honest I didn't say but I emailed them both a couple of months ago when it was brought up then & I did not get a reply from either of them.

I am waiting on the forum management team to get back to me. But like I have said I can only say if i have had a reply as it's agains forum rules to talk about things received in a email.

BUT

I can ask them to let people know on the forum what is happening either them them self, through a BG or if I can let people know myself.

Also I don't know if anyone has realised but since yesterday afternoon Dalkrist is now not showing he is a BG in his signature. I don't know what that means either lol
