    hi, I get what you mean :)
    as we're down to limited bg's i'm going with what MSE Andrea says,
    Meanwhile, please do use the expire button if it's appropriate and you think it's urgent, if it helps get things moved quicker and you think it works - remember this is your board :)

    Smiling is contagious you catch it like the flu,
    when someone smiled at me today i started smiling too 。◕‿◕。 i passed around the corner & someone saw my grin & when he smiled i realized i'd passed it on to him, so, if you feel a smile begin don't leave it undetected, let's start an epidemic quick & get the world infected 。◕‿◕。

    There's no need to expire comps just send a merge to BG's as per usual :)

    Yes it gets them off the board :beer:

    As per MSE Andrea has said we can. Dalkrist & Weeowens perhaps you can PM MSE Andrea your self's & clarify what the board has been told we can do by Andrea her self as you both seem unsure?

    Hi
    I've checked this and merges should be treated as normal and sent to a BG for merging, the expire button is as it says for 'expired' comps, so as Andrea says 'use appropriately', ie if people are happy to press expire on expired comps to get them off the board quickly then please do so, otherwise a BG will do them when they can :)

    I'm not allowed to say because It was said in a PM but I was told different to that Glad

    Edit:

    I have PMed MSE Andrea to ask her to clarify what we can use the expired button for, if it's just expired comps or if we can also use it for getting self promotion comps & dupes off the board

    I have also asked if she her self can post a comment on the compers chat corner to let us know as if she just say's it in a Pm to me I can't pass the info on

    So to keep the peace I will go back to requestiong merges until it's clarified my MSE Andrea.

    You could well be right, it might only mean the expired comps but I was told something else by PM so want to get it sorted out asap so we can get back to comping

    Hi,thanks for your post.

    I think Glad,as a MSE Comps BG, has clearly stated what we should do re duplicate posts. I hope that we may return our usual conduct pre the deleted post re this: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=62765717&postcount=11

    Browntoa or MSE appears to have deleted his post re clicking EXPIRED
    To be blunt : May we cease messsing with a system that has worked for many years.If the merge takes a few days that's OK but it must be posted as a dupe & not expired.

    Please also refer to this: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=62816864&postcount=13
