    Op, when listing competitions you need to list with correct title format - or the post will be removed to Game Over
    Please look down the list of competitons and you will see they all start with something like this:

    E: 30/06

    That part is the end date of the competition - without one in the title your post will get removed by the board guides

    Just click on "EDIT" then on "GO ADVANCED" and place the end date at the start of the title to prevent your post getting removed from this section of the forum and placed in the GAME OVER section

    Thanks

    Rather than 'removing' the comp, I'll just edit the date if required :)

    And if you edit each post, the OP will never learn how to post with the correct format for this forum

    If the OP actually does come back to the thread to see your message (and I imagine most OP's don't) they'll still see your message and know for the next time, but in the meantime I've edited the title for the benefit of the other 1000+ members.

    Also, any other new members entering this competition will see your 'helpful' post and my edit and hopefully will have an idea of how to do it should they ever post a competition of their own :)

    Daza it's the boardguides role to guide the board, Not for you, me or the cat to decide who needs to learn what.

    Maybe, but if every new member posted with the format this was posted in we would have 5000+ comps without an end date and the board in chaos

    Then Pm a boardguide to deal with it, that is their role.

    In Daza's defence, a board guide in the past has publicly stated that they remove any comps that are posted incorrectly, which is why I have also advised new posters that their thread will be removed if it's not corrected, but if Glad and Dalkirst are both happy to correct them themselves I'll leave it :)

    I can only speak for myself but I am happy to edit titles as I come across them, as I have been doing daily over the past 3 months as part of the board tidying :)
