Thank You for the Thanks

Most of those 450+ are probably not LD members, as you can enter the comps without being a member. You just can't comment.

But I do agree with what you are saying though. A simple thank you goes a long way and it doesn't hurt to be polite.

I have often pondered this myself and cam to the same conclusion as RegularComper90 in that many or most entrants don't actually even log on/in to LD they just enter them and move on to the next comp.

It's nice when people leave a comment on the comps I share, and I always try to like all of the comments to show I appreciate it. But I don't really mind if people don't want to comment. People aren't always comfortable interacting with other members on sites like this, they prefer to just view the comps/deals/vouchers, etc and leave it at that.

I don't mind this too much. I always try to Like all the messages left on my competition posts. If everyone who entered hit the Thanks button it would take a long time to do that. Most comps are getting at least 100 entries, but sometimes they go well over 1,000... Although, I find it a bit strange that someone leaving a longer comment can get twice as many points (and potentially an additional 20 points for 3 likes) as the person who posted the competition.

I feel it's a very small way of showing appreciation.

Some of these competition probably take a bit of work to post, especially ones with multiple answers like the Chat and Take a Break ones.

I don't enter the competitions, but I normally if I select a deal and I am going to buy the item I normally say Thank you as I like it when people are kind enough to say something about the deals I post

I always think the same Sarahvwomble! I appreciate the effort that people make to post and provide answers. I didn’t realise you could enter competitions without being a member.
