AIBU Is it ok to post on another social medium not to post competitions

Unless someone retweets a retweet instead of the original tweet surely there is no way of knowing where they saw the tweet in the first place.0

And I think that sums up nicely why I don't get twitter...Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

You have not been given all the info unfortunately moneybot yes my info say's this:
Hello Everyone I Love Entering & Sharing Blog & Twitter Competitions. If You're A #ukblogger With A #giveaway I Will Share It For Free On Twitter
x
Then I have a pined tweet saying:
Please Enter All The Competitions I Tweet, But DO NOT Post Them To MSE Or Any Other Competition Forum/Website Or Blog Thank You xxx
Now not all bloggers want there comps on here some are on the don't post their comps list some are not. Any comper is welcome to enter the comps I tweet so that's probably why you see a lot of compers tweeting the same but what they are not doing is paste & copying them to here or other places.
A MSE member is feeding you my twitter feed to post here because they don't have the balls to post them them self & is setting you up to take the flack like I said earlier moneybot I'm sorry you have been used in this way
Whoever this is you don't want me here so leave me alone, don't use other members to do your dirty work for you grow some courage & do it your self the forum team can find out who it is by your & moneybots account
leave me & my twitter account alone I want to get on with my life I've moved on set myself up else where & getting o with my own lifeIt's TicketyBoo To Be TickTwo!0 -

Not sure how a blogger would know they were getting mse entries from your twitter feed?
Well they wouldn't would they. I can kind of see if they use the same name on here and on twitter, but if it's someone else entirely then god, what kind of petty company/blogger would be blaming a random tweeter for sending them compers and yet be totally fine with an obvious comping tweet account? :rotfl:
That's almost certainly why they're getting blocked lol. Nothing to do with this forum at all.
This is fun drama, but actually kind of ridiculous.
But to answer the question that was actually asked way back in the sands of time, yes it is hypocritical to ban your own comps from MSE then still enter on here. But other than subtly shaming them there's not much anyone can do. But you know that.

I am getting so many blogs/company's not wanting me to enter their comps because they get a lot of spam entries that are coming from MSE
Thank You
Can someone explain this to me please, I don't understand why competitions entered from MSE are classed as spam entries :eek:“I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.” - Billy Joel

You don't own the internet and you've no right to come on here (falsely) demanding people stop taking comps from your twitter feed. At the end of the day it's no big deal If you feel that strongly about it, block them or open another account.
someone who is following me very closely indeed! :rotfl:
You have educated me today, I had to Google that one.
Definitely needs to be MSE's word of the day

I think the paranoia is rubbing off.
"the forum team can find out who it is by your & moneybots account "
You have asked the forum team to look at my pm on here? Can they even do that?
In which case they are looking in the wrong place love, I got messages through other mediums..
The thing to do if you don't like the forum is to not read the forum simps.
I don't think it is a cut and paste from your feed in most cases if you enter a bloggers comp you end up signing up to something which then tells you about the new competitions.
For example this one
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5595335
using one of mine not to get other involved here but it's not just me. You posted a competition for this site a while back I entered and subscribed. They post a new competition I get a notification from them and post it on here. Willing to bet you have also entered and tweeted. I haven't tweeted (have I mentioned my whole not getting twitter thing?).
So do I have to check to see if you have tweeted a competition before I post it on here? And how do I do that if I don't actually tweet (again the whole twitter thing)?Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
