So it's ok to mock a BDO player for moaning at PDC players playing in BDO ranked events and winning money but it's not ok for a forum member who has never posted to come along and stop a 'loyal' person winning a forum comp??

The most bizarre comparison I have ever seen.

8-4 on the vote so far anyway.

Would be interesting (mildly) to have a moderator post his thoughts

Ginge wrote: Fri Jan 11, 2019 12:58 pm 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?

Vote now
Dry your eyes mate......... so what he entered didn't he? He'll be back in touch if he wins something, no need to worry yourself, are you going to start crying like that spoilt Scottish knob...... ;-)

Don't get the answer you want so you ask again.
If you could post a link where the members had a say in this previously, then that would be just peachy.

I'd have the post count (non-comp entry/related) at a higher level. Over 100 genuine posts.
