    ???????????

    I meant it's weird to think sometimes when you see a survey with a few spaces and it goes in seconds, there were other people just like you (you being the general you, not Smodlet specific ) waiting to pounce on the survey :o

    Really, what do you expect me to say to that except "Duh"? Of course, it's a competition. Goes without saying. If you have a point, I am missing it.

    I agree its annoying, but I dont view it as a competition - some you win, some you lose - theres always noodles.

  • Well I certainly wasn't expecting to be spoken down to about it :rotfl:

    I know it's a competition, it was just an offhand comment :rotfl:

    What else is your definition of competition, mikep?

    I don't like being spoken down to either. Believe it or don't, I realise there are more participants out there than just the ones on this thread. I don't need it to be pointed out to me.

    Am I missing something here? I really just read SSDD23's comment as a bit of an off-hand comment along the lines of 'isn't it funny to think that even though we're all in different places and got different stuff going on in our lives, we're still all sometimes just staring at the same survey site at the same time'.
  • I'm not entirely sure where you think I've managed to talk down to you or try to point anything out, never the intention for anything I've posted, apologies if anything has been taken that way...

    Back to survey hunting :)

    That's all it was intended to be :o

    As mentioned already, one of us is missing something. Whatever; who cares?
