By the way in case you need to look it up, 'a prig' is not a misspelling for something more appropriate, nor is it an insult it is an accurate and legitimate description.

Re: Do we need new rules in the photo competition
 
you cant stop members from changing there vote its called freedom of choice and there is no way of stopping it in the gallery software.
its up to your own conscience if you change your mind nothing can be done about it.
as for voting for friends that cant be stopped either.
if you want to cheat to win a prize then i feel sorry for you,
we don't know who voted for who
The competitions have been running fine for 52 competitions and as soon as we sort your upload link you start to moan.
if you dont like the rules set out dont upload photo's its simple .
there are some members that are happy with the rules the way they are if you dont like them dont enter.
And the so called loophole as you call it has been known by us for ages thanks for advertising it.

Mick you do a great job and you started this competition as a bit of fun. Don't be disheartened by one member who seems intent on moaning about every aspect of the site. I know I am not alone in thinking you do a great job:)

If you read the photo competition #52 thread from the beginning you will note that it was you (post #19) who suggested that I should see someone about my paranoia. What followed is down solely to you and your insulting comment.

Until then my contribution was pointing out that I didn’t have the Upload link and asking if I could email my photos to mick like last time.

The upload link problem got resolved and I posted my pics.

I also observed that few votes had been cast and ………….

Jambutty, it seems as if everything is a 'war' to you......you take something which is supposed to be for fun and turn it into something else....and not only that you infer that we all operate in devious ways.
it is time you saw someone about your paranoia.

The above is the post you mention.....it was in response to your post number 17...which implied that the members of accyweb were devious in their voting habits.

I don't consider my response was any more offensive than your inferences that we(the accyweb members) have little or no integrity in our voting in the said competition.

I consider what you do to be a form of trolling....which in many forums is seen as very low thing to do.
This is my last post in this thread.

I don't think the rules should be changed

The thought of cheating in an AccyWeb Photo Competition more than likely never even crossed anyone's mind, until "someone" metioned it

Even tho someone mentioned it I am sure everyone that bothers to enter won't think of cheating, whats the point?

The photo comp has gone on fine before now for ages, why let this one comment change it

You should have put a third option on the poll -

This poll shouldn't even exist because we're all too honest to cheat.
