Some take on board what you're saying, but some just get snotty and abusive! :(Emilyhttp://www.facebook.com/leadingthepackpetsuppliesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7880616829755966948.post-5023698554132336082013-07-12T08:27:39.843+01:002013-07-12T08:27:39.843+01:00I've only entered a handful of "like &...I've only entered a handful of "like & shares" recently, and dilute them with bunny photos lol. Normally for local companies - although I do educate them after the comp - like I did recently with the Garden Fork comp that I won. If I have no wish to enter the local comp, I send a message with a link to Di's or yours pages showing the rules and how go use rafflecopter etc. Most of local companies have changed and no long use "like and share" :-)<br /><br />I have wondered if reporting the page with the comp on (for bigger companies that flaunt the rules) is a good idea? Or is that really mean?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7880616829755966948.post-17691415077735887752013-07-12T07:36:27.325+01:002013-07-12T07:36:27.325+01:00I wish they would do something about them,I person...I wish they would do something about them,I personally can't stand the like & share competitions... & i wish i could ignore them & not do them, many i can but some i can't as the prizes on offer are so good ( many are not i might add!). & Di i have seen that coming up an awful lot in comps, fill in the form then they want you to go back & like & share the photo...grrrrrrr, my Timelines a nightmare somedays as some compers come on & just do all the likes & shares in one go & that drives me insane, i have started reporting them as spam...not that it'll do any good, i recon Facebook ignore you when you report a company. Still till they stop them alltogether, i'm sorry but some of them i have to enter, there too good to miss !!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02523546734030256549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7880616829755966948.post-1196384041953173622013-06-24T14:26:49.810+01:002013-06-24T14:26:49.810+01:00I think the ones that say it after you've ente...I think the ones that say it after you've entered are asking you to do it as a favour rather than as a condition of entry. But I can't guarantee it! I don't usually share them when they word it like that, unless it's something I think that friends who are online at the time would be interested in, as I don't want to clutter up everybody's feed when they see the same comps over and over again, when each of their friends enters.

My only question is- when I enter a competition straight from an e-mail and it says " you are now entered into the competition" "now like and share our facebook page" am I obliged to do this as it as already said im entered or can I avoid it & by not doing it will it affect my chances?<br />Dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07495700303088321952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7880616829755966948.post-2436450791695398832013-06-21T08:48:58.214+01:002013-06-21T08:48:58.214+01:00It is not as easy to motivate people to participat...It is not as easy to motivate people to participate in 'Like and Share' as you might think, because people have grown smart to know the value of clicking these buttons.
