Should the Forum reintroduce a post count requirement for entering forum comps?

Post by Ginge »

As it stands we have someone leading the Forum comp who has made one post to enter a competition with prize, vanished, and hasnt logged back in since. This person hasnt contributed to the forum and is potentially going to be winning a prize from under the noses of those that do.

The Moderators in their wisdom decided to scrap the rule last year where you had to have XX number of posts.

So should this rule be brought back?

Is that better Chris?


Bring the rule back, get rid of the freeloaders who shamelessly contribute nothing and who never will ...

Ginge has never entered a Lakeside comp.
Should be banned from all competitions for not supporting our sponsor. :)

Except in this case the decision to lift the ban was decided by three people. Just letting them know how the wider forum feels.

Does the sponsor get a say?
