    Or you could answer the question.


    There was a thread over the weekend I was really impressed by, a company held a comp to win 2 laptops, the owner and his mate won (I think that is the way I read it) and he was ousted and his FB/Twitter/Google info were published here and he lost his Twitter site ect

    I thought to myself this lot (the MSErs) are !!!! hot nothing gets past them, I wouldn't like to cross any of these buggas but in the same breath they are keeping the rest of us on the right path, so what they did was great :T

    So a cheat was exposed and lost face, this bloke wants to do the same so he says, so lets see what he has to say, it saves the forum members having to do it ;)

    I certainly wouldn't like to get on the wrong side of folks in here your like dogs with bones :eek:

    This forum has gone crazy today, Is it a full moon? Are you all on summat and not sharing with me?

    BTW Yes we should stop feeding the trolls :D

    I still want to know what a "professional comper" is :o

    I'm not really bother what may be in his 'expose'; seems like someone just wants to vent.

    Wish there was the use of paragraphs in the FB posts though..it's quite tricky to read the rants ;)
