Anyone Else Think We Should Have Unlimited Amount of Deals
Other
Latest deals, can we have unlimited deal posts please. Got loads of bargains, yet I’m limited to how many gets points. Thanks x
You can post more than 3 deals you just only get points for 3 a day. If it was unlimited points some people would take advantage and there would be loads of rubbish posted.
No..
The site would be over run with even more pointless so called 'deals'
(more than it already is...)
There's already quite a few people on here that only post purely for the points, they don't even care what they're posting or even if they think it's worth it..
The point is.. the point system is already being taken advantage of by many members.
The LD guys also have to pay their own staff wages, to keep the website open, for the amazon vouchers that the points add up to, etc..
Why would they allow unlimited deal posts at 100 points each? You could earn a fiver in no time just by posting a load of crap.
Limiting points is the only way they can keep a level of fairness.
I can see that you've posted quite a few from 'toys for a pound' website.. be careful you don't get your posts limited even more or potentially have your points taken away by constantly posting from the same place, there is rules about that too.
Lynibis can you imagine what it would be like on here if posts were unlimited for points lol.
It's bad enough as it is.
I barely look through the deals and freebies anymore for the exact reason.
I didn't know there was a rule to not post from the same place: I often post from the same place, because they do great deals and I buy clothes and shoes there myself so I think they're great deals!! Should I not?
gaelle0501 I think it is only an issue if you only post from the same place all the time.
gaelle0501 yeah, I believe it's if you post the same site consistently like MrsCraig said.
Just mix it up every now and again and it should be fine.
Although I like the idea of getting unlimited points for loads of deals I think it would lead to lots of rubbish deals being posted just for points. I think you can post more than 3 deals a day but only get points for posting 3 deals.
You get points for 3 deals but can post up to 10. I agree, we should get points for all 10. Unlimited would be a bit free-for-all with people posting all sorts of crap just to get their points. I do usually try to post 10 a day but I do only post items which I think people would be interested in, not just for the sake of it.
Not everyone thinks as you do TractorGirl and they post rubbish even for their 3 a day. I have often seen different flavour/colour etc separately entered and I don't think that is on. I wish everyone did think like you and only post items of interest.
I think it's fair the way it is now I have noticed in last few day duplicate posts or like others have said pointless deals some people who share their deals here first before shared to there Facebook page gets extra manually points so you have to work for your points like everyone else a day you can make 500 points so it don't take long to get you amazon voucher if your willing to put the work into it
I think the site has the right amount of deals for points. I have to agree that if points were given for more then the quality would suffer. I've noticed, lately that there are far too many deals from the poundshop or toysforapound - these are cheap and well known so it's hardly a new discovery. There have been a few members asking why their deals have been limited to one per day or, in some cases, stopped for a while - no point in sharing a 'catalogue' of goods from one supplier. The LD team have hinted that there will be a 'poor deal' button in the future so it's a warning to those who share endlessly from one site.
Oh I didn't realise there would be a poor deal button! Hopefully people don't start abusing it too.
I don't think the system should be changed. There are enough points awarded already. I agree with what other posters have said about the quality of the deals suffering if there were more points awarded. There are a number of deals on here already that people only share to get points.
I think we should get 25 points for freebies posted and be limited to get points for posting a maximum of 2 as they are much harder to find.
