” Edit--- You didnt follow agm's post templateon that freebie. You are supposed to give a description about the freebie on what its about and how to get it and, not to copy/paste the authors words as if it were her talking. Even if you paraphrased it itd be alright but why are there words like "I’d love to send you a special gift!" and I’ll send you your pen"when its not you thats sending it? And even it it were, asking for addresses from members here so they can paste sensitive info like that out out of confusion or not is not allowed.AbbyAW I didnt follow the template to the exacting letter, more hoop jumping. Its actually rather pointless having a title inside the thread text, thats what the title bar is there for and that still visible even when you open the thread. All I ever do now is copy and paste the thread title for the description too, same thing. Even if members had seriously thought I was giving them a pen lol that myth would be quickly dispelled once they clicked the link anyway.. The exact text from that thread below, Ive removed the link. I’d love to send you a special gift! Receive a Mari Smith blue light-up pen absolutely free. The pen has my motto on it, “Relationships First.” (Business Second!) Here’s what to do: Just fill out your name and mailing address below and I’ll send you your pen! Note the last sentance says how to get the offer. So in total you have all the information. Thread title Mari Smith blue light up pen free international delivery. The thread title basically tells you everything you need to know before you open the thread. Just out of curiosity and the reason for the delay in reply I put this up on another board. Pictures speak a million words as they say. With 21 thanks this did pretty well, shame P2S members never got the chance. Ohh and note none of the 21 managed to put their address in the comments box ![]() ![]() |

Its been a while now since the introduction of the new rules. Before I went on holiday and today within seconds of looking on the forum I am able to spot duplicates. I have highlighted a few but there are more and thats not my job to point out. Your three month no repeat rule was meant to make duplicates easier to spot? Though it seems you need the members to highlight them for you before you notice. I think that situation creates negativity between members and is far from an idea situations. The who;e things seems to be an epic fail to be honest. How do Mods intend to correct the situation? At the moment I am not posting freebies due to the inconsistent application of the rules. |
