Any chance they can have their own section? - it's hard to see any proper threads :shy:
-
I was just thinking the same thing!!
-
What do people think about merging them into one big thread (in no particular order!)?
-
Good idea, Helen. I think merging them is a good idea.
-
It would be good if they could just be merged into the original competition thread to make sense and not be biased.
-
The only thing is that when you merge threads it puts the replies in time order so it would make no sense whatsoever but the links would still be there. Doesn't bother me but what do others think?
-
Yes you can do that Helen but leave Lyla's out, actually I dont think anyone will vote if they all get muddled up so no point in them being there really.
Mark stop being a grumpy ol' swine, and remebmber theres only one voting thread you need to keep up with ;)
-
If its optional nobody will want theirs in so it gets more exposure, lol
must admit to being grumpy too - I haven't voted for any of the cats on the threads purely because of all the threads being a bit much!
-
Hum maybe close the other threads and open one saying if posting for comp post your link here? Helen?
Instead of merging into one cos then I would be confused and links would also be muddled up.
-
:rofl: Dawn you started the insania, its all your fault :evillaugh:
-
What about locking all the existing threads and I'll make a new one with all the links that have been posted so far (in alphabetical order)? That would be a lot less work than merging. P.S Have changed the boys names to Aardvark one and Aardvark two - joke! :evillaugh:
-
Ook do that am changin Lyla's name to Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalison :rofl:
-
:heeee heeee:
You can take mine off if you like Helen....its all just a bit of fun and I would rather put all my "finger energy" into voting for just a couple of the cats that are near the top.....On the Morrisons site that is! ;D
-
No way! All Purrs cats would be on the thread :) As you say it's all just a bit of fun but don't wan't to upset people if the general consensus is to leave the threads as they are...
-
Seems like the vote threads are staying, people keep opening new ones :evillaugh:
Oh well noting else interesting going on ;)
-
Just an aside but looked at least popular pud (who looked lovely) and awarded 5 stars. I then refreshed and saw another pud demoted to least popular (also lovely) and awarded 5 stars......and another..... Best log off now as I could be here for some time :evillaugh:
-
There are about 19 vote for me threads on purrs at the mo. Sorry but I am finding it a bit much as well. Have to confess I am using my iPod at the moment which means it's a tiny screen, I have a ton of scrolling to get past the threads :(
Sorry but I'm with Mark on this one.
-
Itsjust a litte fun, threads tend to be repeated anyway. Besides, anyone who is finding it too much doesn't really need to open the threads or simply go to General
Cat Chat and mark them all as read. It will all be over soon. One of ours just needs to win so a rescue gets some food ;)
-
The sooner it's over the better :tired:
I am going to avoid this section until it is.
-
I'm not opening the threads at all. The fact is there are so many it's hard to find any other threads which just get lost and for me there is a ton of scrolling, so my finger hurts.
And I am continually marking everything as read. It's only fun if you are interested in it. Personally speaking it's rather annoying now. But hey ho someone just email me when purrs gets back to normal. I've been trying to catch up on things Ive missed lately and at the moment it's too difficult for me.
-
There are about 19 vote for me threads on purrs at the mo.
and rising - there could potentially be hundreds - see "how many cats do you have" thread - That's if you can find it :shify:
-
Its just a bit of fun for goodness sake - and after all its all for a good cause, most peeps have said they'd donate the food to resuce if they win. :)

Not for everyone it isn't. That is why it was asked for them to all be in one place instead of swamping everything else. But hey ho, I really am done with purrs for a couple of weeks until it's over and done with and back to normal. That way I don't have to be seen as a miserable moany person or be continually annoyed with something I'm finding OTT.
-
oh come on Leigh, I've added Star now - you liked her didn't you ;) ;)
-
As Gill said Dawn, IMO "a bit of fun" ;D

Thanks ;D
:hug: Leigh
Brilliant :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
-
Well I think I'm in with a chance looking at the opposition, I wouldn't have thought anyone ever called Ghengis Kahn, Shane MacGowan, Frankenstein's Monster, Joseph Stalin, Vlad the Impaller or Rasputin "Cute" , well not to their faces anyway ;D
-
Vlad may not be cute but he knows how to party!
-
Vlad may not be cute but he knows how to party!
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Dawn,
Fancy Dress or so it looks ;D
That's where he may have the edge as I'm no party animal nowdays still waiting for my kipper ties, flared cords and cheesecloth shirts to come back into vogue, till that day I'll stick to my pipe and carpet slippers and a nice cup of tea. ;D

Peter Wyngarde - I seem to remember fancying him once
I can only think they were putting somthing in the drinking water at the time :-[
-
I think it's all starting to get a bit much now - it's not just in this section either, they're springing up all over the place and it's getting quite difficult to actually use the forum :Crazy:
-
I was getting bored of them after 48hrs but didnt post, glad you brought it up Mark :thanks:
Lock em all and bung all the links in one thread, much easier to skip it all then. Its as annoying as a troll posting crap all over the place :shy:
-
I'm afraid I'm with the grumpies on this one - its getting tooooooo much. I'd like to vote for LeighK though - brilliant :rofl:
-
Ok so just block them all, were only trying to somehing for a good cause.
My god some people >:(
-
Afraid I am one of the grumpies too, especially on my e-mail notification, as all I can see is Please - and it makes you think that it is something important, and it is just yet another vote thread, so one section that we dont have to register for would be great. I am finding it hard to find things on the forum too.
-
Its as annoying as a troll posting crap all over the place :shy:
So trying to win food for rescue is crap???
If you cant find things, do as the rest of us do and look harder.
-
I think thats a bit harsh CC - we dont all have time to spend scrolling past loads of threads to see if we can help someone. And I dont know about anyone else, but I didn't even know the prize was food that could help a rescue as I have no interest in this - if there had been one thread that people could have posted a link onto, I might have had a look, but I dont have the time to go through 19 threads (or more now)
-
There's no need to get stressed about it, I'm one of those who posted a thread (in my defence mine was the first :evillaugh:) but I have to agree when almost the entire first page is taken up with 'Please vote for..' threads it's a bit much. The suggestion was to have one thread with all the links in so people can vote and chat about it to their hearts content on that thread without annoying those who aren't interested.
-
Yes Desley with work, 2 kids, 6 cats, 8 rabbits a house to keep I have all the time in the world to post :tired:
Its a bit of fun at the end of the day and I dont know why some are getting like this over it.
-
CC, you know full well that i dont think getting food for rescues is a bad thing, what is annoying me is the sheer quantity of posts covering up potentially much more important posts.
-
Yes I know MM but its all for a good cause, cant we just leave it there?
-
I have to admit I'm also leaving till its over, which is when exactly, 2 weeks?
-
Realistically, there will always be people with loads of ways of getting votes. To have a chance of winning the food, we would have been better putting on a mascot such as Minimopsical and everyone getting everyone they know to vote?
-
I have been quietly voting for all the Purrs cats and Bunnies despite finding it difficult to cope with all the threads on this topic and indeed finding the numbers annoying. However there is now a touch of nastiness coming through on 2 threads, so I am sorry I will no longer vote for anyone.
Yes trying to win food for a rescue is a good thing,but petty squabbles and losing regular people who provide valuable input into this forum is not good.
-
I'm with the keep it all in one thread brigade! Or create a temporary sub-board maybe? I'm all for a bit of fun but when what seems like every thread reading "please vote for ....." I do tend to get a bit fed up - and won't look for any new threads just switch off.
It's not just this forum though, there are lots of others that are becoming inundated with "please vote for" threads so nowhere is safe at the moment.

I don't really mind one way or the other and if it is only for the next two weeks I am with Helen on this one
-
Lol just seen my emails from last two days and there are loads of em. It woudl take me till next week to vote for ya all.
I do agree thought that it would be better to have one thread only for this competition than many single threads.
-
Ohhhhh Mark You really are becoming a right old women...moan ....moan...moan
love from your bad spelling, dog looking chav friend :rofl:
-
love from your bad spelling, dog looking chav friend :rofl:
Straight from the horse's mouth :evillaugh:
It's not just me but I was the first to mention it is all - I have been called a firebrand etc before for speaking my mind :evillaugh:
-
All done ;) The fun continues in the temp Morrisions board here - http://www.purrsinourhearts.co.uk/index.php/board,92.0.html
Post all ya threads ya like re voting or just chattin to ya hearts content.
We do have sep boards for all our comps so only right to keep this comp in it's own board so all threads can be seen easily and in it's own section.
Have fun :hug:

Not you Mark, surely? ;)

Moi? :innocent:

Well I'm glad you brought it up Mark, I could hardly say anything as I posted a 'Vote for...' thread myself (although I was the first to post so it wasn't an issue when I posted :evillaugh:). Now they're in one place people can concentrate on voting if they choose to, would be a nice outcome for a Purrs cat to win and donate the food to a rescue on here but unlikely I fear :shy:
-
unfortunately they still show up on all unread threads :( but at least I can now mark the board as read and refresh :)
-
if the food is going to be donated to a rescue shouldn't we all be voting for the same cat so that we definately win?? btw my star is still only on page 34 :evillaugh:
-
I wasn't bothered by the extra posts on the board but just want to thank Tan for taking the time to move the posts x
-
Thanks Tan - bet that was an awkward job!!
-
Thanks Tan :hug:
-
I think its time you shut this thread down to stop cluttering up the board for more important posts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Good idea Gill
-
One post is hardly cluttering the place up, the other threads are now in one place for all those who are interested in it to carry on voting. I'm still voting for all the Purrs cats but am glad they've been moved.
-
Think Gill meant that 'tongue in cheek', n'est pas? :evillaugh:

You can vote for as many cats as you like - so you can vote for them all ;D
-
I have changed the name of the thread for people that may not know about it. Maybe this thread should be skickied until the contest is over rather than deleted? :shify:
If someone wants to give it a better title, feel free.
