Where did the 28/8 go ?

It would be significantly less irritating to put up with expired comps on the board than to have them moved before end date compers have had chance to enter them though..
Plus there are quite a few people offering to help on the BG thread, most probably including some that are night owls if there is a need to move them as soon as they expire. Not that they need to be moved *that* quick..
I hope this isn't happening again tonight??
i completely agree! or on the 31st! now that would cause a headache.0 -

It's not the first, second or third time it's happened recently so it's not extenuating circumstances which lead to this.
and any chance you can recall another date this happened so I can check? according to your post it's at least 4 times recentlyI am a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Wales, Small Biz MoneySaving, In My Home (includes DIY) MoneySaving, and Old style MoneySaving boards.

Yes there are some 28/08 comps back but as far as i can see there are only about 5 pages which is way less than there were originally.
As for other specific dates I am sorry but I cannot recall at this point.
By the way I am not trying to cause an argument here it's just I feel so frustrated when the comps get moved prematurely.0 -
I have also offered myself to help on the need a BG thread.
I'm on the boards in the morning around 8.30am if that helps at all

I think it's really unfair to complain to be honest and as Glad said the only way people would be really happy is for BGs to stay up till midnight and then move. They do get moaned about if live comps are still on the board.
If it is REALLY such an issue for people (and speaking as a die-hard end date comper myself, here), then just catch a day up and always be doing two days in advance instead of next day then there won't EVER be a problem in this way.
I can always find the end date comps whether in GO or on the live board, it's really not an issue as far as I'm concerned and as I said, if it bothered me, I would just make sure I was always an extra day ahead.
Poor show with all this complaining really unnecessarily IMO - be careful what you wish for as sometimes when we do this, changes that we don't wish for happen. x
(gets off soapbox LOL)
happy comping everyone (goes to do E: 30/08 LOL)MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR0 -
^ It's just pointless and illogical though to move something that is still useable - and fair enough to make a point about it.
Though I am wondering if it's a forum glitch now?
I can see them now but last night they disappeared, are the BG's saying there were none moved?0
