Pet Idol Rules

Sorry to bang on about this, but people still aren´t playing by the rules! Is there some way pictures can be deleted if there are more than 2 entries? Can people still vote for themselves? (I think they can!)

BIG BOLD LETTERS TELLING EVRYONE ONLY 2 PICS, cause some dont seem to bother reading the rules.

You can still vote for your own pic, because I tried (only once!). Therefore, the result may never be fair!

hi, there is still a problem with the comp, you still appear to be able to vote for you own photo which is unfair and also there are still entries on there that are nothing to do with the comp title, i myself put too many pics on but deleted as soon as i found out you could only put two up but at least they were all in line with the comp title,

Please could you take my two pictures of the "Pop Idol" I feel that people are not going by the rules and feel that this is unfair for everyone else.

I belong to another fourm, where that you can only vote once, then you are not able to vote again.

Why cant all the pics be on ONE page that way it would be easier to vote ,plus you could easily see who has NOT followed the rules !!!!

Ed Who won the last comp?

It still seems that some people are not going by the rules, as there are still people uploading more than 2 photos, and some pictures are not relevant to the title of the competition.

I think that "the Editor" should have the rights to delete these.

i would say that 1 photo per pet should be entered. will you be deleting the photos from the last competition so there is a fresh chart for the new 1?

I have also deleted one of my three - a difficult choice! It still seems possible to vote for your own pet, though. It would be good if there was a way you could stop that!

Hi Ed I have now deleted one of my 3 photo´s but have noticed others still have alot more then 2 on can i suggest that you highlight the new rules by writing a blog about it on the home page so that way noone can say they didn´t know, it then gives people a chance to delete their own photo´s before you do it.

I have changed the rules now to two pictures. Lets see how that goes. If you´re near the bottom it doesnt matter so much but people near the top WILL now get pictures deleted if there are more than two - but I will always delete the least popular ones according to the chart. I hope it works better - but let me know!

I would say 1 picture per pet/entrant and fix it so that people cannot votwe for their own!..that way there is NO cheating and everybody´s equal!.

maybe 1 picture Ed, I have done 3 of my handsome pup, but votes are split between them, maybe it should be we choose the one we as the owner will create more interest

I think 2 pics woud be fine. And if you can do something about people voting for their own - all the better!

That´s a good idea ed makes it fair for everyone then

Thanks for clearing that up Sue - so if i say: - 2 entries only. Stick to subject. Dont vote for your own pic - will everyone be happy or will anyone be sad?

oh and also i am not the only one who used my computer it is a sharde one and i also allow my friend sto use it a they dont have their own

hi
well i dont want to upset anyone but i have been off my computer for days now and all my friends have voted for my dogs and they are in top slots i cannot help that they like my dogs
it is a pet potrait and the 3photos i have put up are potrait picutres not some i have just taken of the girls but ones i got them to pose for with hours of trying
i could have put lots of pics up but that would not be fair so i chose the 3 that are portait type photos if dont envy the judge of who wins if it is a hard picture to paint

I will ask the tech dept what can be done. If i say 2 entries only, and stick to subject and dont vote for your own pic - will you be Ok with that?

DescriptionPS GREYWOLF, thats what our pages are for, so other people can look at our intrests, photos and pets ENJOY !!!

DescriptionDont think it would matter what you do, people will always break the rules , l dont think most of them read the rules anyway.l put on a picture of Kyra just to see if you can vote for your own pet, and´´ Yes´´ you can, (dont worry ive taken the picture off again HE! HE! )

I think it certainly shouldn´t be any more than three pics. I love to enter, but I feel that people must be voting for themselves because the same person occupies the top slots and it´ s obvious people aren´t playing by the rules. We all think our pets are the best, but there also has to be fair play or you can´t call it a competition!!

I think you should stick with the 3 photo per person rule and make sure the photo´s match the theme. Teck has told me he has given you some IT tools so you can stop all the cheating ie people voteing for their own animals etc.
Greywolf please don´t be shy the pages are their for everyone to look at.

I think you should stick to the 1 photo per pet rule. We all love our pets and would like to let everyone see our wonderful animals, but we can do that via our blog page.

Maybe another page could be set up for everyone to use to post a different picture each week of our pets. That way everyone can post pics of them for everyone to see. I´m shy and dont like visiting pages of others to see there wonderful animals as I think I may be intruding :)
