    Good luck (or I should say skill) to all the participants, and may the best one win!

    Can't wait to see the update on the contest.

    I do wish our little humble DoBump shop had been invited along for the fun, but I realize we are a bit of a newcomer to the field.

    This posters for hire "industry" is such a new and wild one that I already feel it is due for an inevitable shakeup. Some sort of standards must be applied.

    DoBump - I have pm'd you about this.

    DoBump has copied most of the content from my site, Forumbulge.com.
    His FAQ has parts that are word for word copied and pasted from my site and so do other parts of his website, topped off with a copyright logo of his own.

    I welcome new competition, but when you need to copy others sites to promote yourself, it gets rather silly and shows a severe form of unoriginality.
    I realise imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, however it's still not on.

    Please remove the offending content asap DoBump - it doesn't make you look very professional and I don't appreciate my hard work being stolen.

    This is gworld's contest, so I suggest a scoring methodology which matches gworld's unique posting style:

    1 point for every time a poster takes a thread off-topic
    1 point for every time a poster insults the United States
    1 point for every time a poster insults Christianity
    1 point for every racist remark
    1 point for every spelling error
    1 point for every irrelevant quote which is taken completely out of context
    1 point for every random usage of the bold tag
    1 point for every time a poster says "Eh?" :D

    little willy, mia

    Are you to still wanking off each other? get a bedroom. I know that after brokeback mountain, you thought you two will be also popular but you were mistaken. That movie is about tolerance but you are just brokeback bigots which no one likes. ;)

    It's obvious who the bigot is. Someone has a bit of homophobia.

    And since this thread has already completely derailed, I'd again like to ask "DoBump" to remove my text from his website - since PM's don't work I have to resort to asking here.

    I respect my other competitors, but you are the only one playing below the belt.
    If your whole service is based on copying and pasting, then there is a problem.

    No it finished ages ago.

    I'm not sure how you can judge a winner on a subjective thing such as writing, but I think the "winner" is the one with the most votes?

    Who knows :D

    I am glad that you decided finally to step out of the closet and admit to being gay, but the reason that I dislike you is because you are a bigot not because of your homosexuality. ;)

    Well it is obvious that this thread is not at all valid, nor was your competition. I actually thought you were making some type of conscious effort to do something productive for the good of the forum. Apparently not.

    Guess it is time for the ignore button again. My guess is however, with your attitude your not going to be posting here much longer.

    Apparently the longshot "none" won :p

    Seriously though, this competition didn't achieve anything.
    I don't believe anyone really voted, most likely it was 98% staff who voted.

    Lesson learned not to enter anymore "competitions" again :rolleyes:

    Thank you for the answer to the question. Was just curious. I guess Gworld can go back to his baiting, pandering and abusive remarks now.

    The answer is very simple for anyone who is interested to use such services. The name of the posters for each company is in the first post. visit the forum, read couple of posts to find out what poster style you like, contact the company and hire the person you want.

    While I have nothing against your posters style and I decided that not to mention which company is the best in my opinion, I must say that your attitude toward the customers leaves much to be desired. It doesn't matter how good your company or service is, nobody likes to work with some one who is always negative and is not flexible in discussions. I think you can expand your business a lot more if you could just have more pleasant attitude toward the customers.

    Sorry gworld, but you have no idea how I treat my customers and I certainly don't recall us having any correspondence during your competition, so your allegations really have no base.

    Funnily enough I've always received nothing but compliments from my real clients.

    Thank you.

    Had to turn ignore off again to see what that was about. I really expected no less.

    Sometimes the best advice you give is the advice you give others. Seems you should follow your own advice.

    Ignore back on...
