    Thanks, it is related to this: E: 22/06: Win £10,000 (5-second vote)

    Is it just me but does it seem a bit unethical for a firm to gain votes in this manner?

    I pressed vote, but no where asked for my email thus no email confirmation. Help!
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Thanks to everyone who posts competitions. You are the stars of the board :T:j:T

    think you only get the email confirmation once, so if you've already voted, you won't get another email.

    so I took a screen print, hope they accept that

    I hadn't already voted. I pressed vote on this and didn't receive anything :-(

    Yet it wasn't unethical for the original poster of the main virgin comp to post the competition and put in only a link to the person they wanted us to vote for and no link to all the entries. If that was allowed with no complaining here then this post is no different

    I'd not entered via that comp & I had not really paid a great deal of attention to it.

    My view still stands.

    Inducements re votes are unethical :-)
