    sorry i'm a bit confused with your ethics
    can you explain why your opinion is so different than this?

    Because Inspector Poirot, that was a freebie, this is a COMPETITION :rolleyes:

    oh and i'm not jealous i dont enter the comp i had a go earlier but hasd got to be one off the most tedious things people can do
    fair play if you can hack clicking away and good luck to all those that continue to do it night and day
    ive got three cameras so dont need another one and i dont sell them either.

    Would that be more or less tedious than reading my old posts at gone midnight and then quoting them out of context? I think you just enjoy trying to make people feel uncomfortable.
    Whatever floats your boat luv :rolleyes:

    Thats your perogative. If you can't tell the difference between comp and freebie you're in the wrong forum. Anyway I have a baby to see to, so you'll have to find someone else to try and annoy. Sure it won't take you long ;):D

    oh i understand the difference but i dont understand your ethics

    so where you are coming from

    its wrong to claim for extra people in the house for moveme goodies(pint of milk, teabags a lightbulb and a loaf of bread because its a freebie
    its ok for one person to win more cameras although shes playing for other people because its a competition?:confused::confused::confused:

    Think there is a difference the former is just greed..the latter is competition and luck. It is perfectly within the rules as they want people to keep playing as it's a search game.

    Ginjim, the two threads are mutually exclusive. I'm not sure why you have a bee in your bonnet about the other thread. My ethics are neither here nor there, the treatment of julie (and Munchkim) was the basis of my comments.

    However if it will set your mind at rest to understand my ethics then here goes.

    On the move me thread it was mentioned that someone had claimed 39 boxes of the freebie. This is excessive by anyones standards. So yes I believe it is unethical to claim more than one per household this case. It is up to the individual of course and I certainly wouldn't verbally abuse someone for claiming 3 or 4. If the offer is abused it may be removed and spoil it for others.

    On this thread it is up to fate and pot luck whether you win or not. It is a competition. So far fate has smiled on Julie. She is not going to make the competition close down, even if she won all 280 cameras. She has every right to continue clicking until the competition finishes, and every right to not be verbally abused for her luck.

    I hope this is clear to you now.
