Recommendations for alternative comping sites

Options
In light of the most recent change to these forum pages, and with many users finding this site becoming more and more incompatible with their comping hobby - does anyone have any recommendations for other comping sites? I'd love to know which ones are the easiest to use and which ones have most comps listed. Thanks in advance

    Oooh, I've just registered - got to say I like it a lot. Seems to be very simple to use. Thanks. Have you found any draw backs?

    I use Loquax, because it runs on the forum software we used to have here, has daily digest emails which I heavily rely on and got abandoned when we moved to this... cough cough... "amazing new modern forum software" and such.

    People don't seem to like to name it but as far as I'm aware it's fine, generally people refer to it as the duck/ducks though.

    I still check here too, mind - but Loquax is really good for those of us who just loved the old forum so much we want to still feel like we have it.

    The main downside is if you're using more then one site keeping track and making sure you don't enter twice.

    Loquax is ok especially their closing sections, often no answers posted.  Latest UK deals seems spammy to me and extra clicks needed but okish.  I would prefer they sorted out this place and stay here tbh.  I used to use Compers News but it is a paid for magazine/forum and it is quite pricey.

    I use latest deals to find a few extra comps if I've got spare time after doing all the ones I like here. They've got pictures for each one so its often easy to tell which ones you just entered on mse- definitely do it in that order if you're doing both.

    I'll definitely sign up for competition database but I'm not too sure if I'll like loquax's format.

    I've got to say I've been using competition database now for a few days since NoVaccine recommended it - honestly it's just fab and perfectly designed for a comper. The only thing I haven't discovered is if you can bookmark comps, I hope you can because then it is basically perfect :)
