Roboform query

Options
Hiya all


I just had a quick question re: RoboForm


I was just entering a few comps on sewmag - and noticed in the T&C's it states ''Automated entries are disqualified''


Does this mean that if you use RoboForm on this form it knows? And hence you will then be void from the competition - or does this relate to something else entirely?


Thanks!


Happy comping :D

    hi, robo isn't an automated entry afaik,


    here's some great info regarding automated entry sites


    An automated competition entry service is a site that allows subscribers to pay to be entered into online competitions.
    Sites like Win24, WeWin4U, Prizewise, Prize500 and PrizeDrawCentre charge a user a few pounds a month and then enter competitions for that person (and many others) using a script or program.


    Automated Competition Entry services are of little benefit to a site running competitions. By using these services an entrant is (1) not willing to visit your website (2) not willing learn about your competition or website (3) not willing to interact with your site or sponsors (4) not going to be reading your emails! We believe all sites running competitions should act to ensure that entries made from third party or automated services are disqualified, so that prizes are awarded to people who have made the effort to enter a competition correctly.

    Ah great - I thought it might be those things - but didn't want to jeopardise a chance through using RoboForm!


    Thanks so much!
