Sooner these threads are banned the better. It wouldn't be so bad if we could see who we are voting for and who the competition is.

that's who you could vote for....and the competition is in a local Belfast newspaper. It's not the money or any prizes, it's the positive boost the family needs that would be the best thing to come out of any winning entry into the competition.

http://belfastmedia.com/bonnybaby/ is the competition

it's not a scam, it's trying to help a family out with some positive news after all the wee child has been through in her 5 months of life.

Flame or be rude all you want, I was just asking for some people to help a fellow forum member out. Hope the 30p you save in not voting goes some way to buying your next £500 gpu

For anyone who has voted I pass on my grateful thanks

Can we PLEASE ban people trying to cheat at ridiculous competitions?

how am I cheating? I'm not FORCING you to vote you...no I'm not going to lower myself. If you got nothing nice to say then say nothing at all.

:rolleyes:

why don't you go back into your bedroom and finish your homework, your attitude betrays your age

It is a scam though!

Sending money so the newspaper via SMS allows them to profit, after they give out a couple of prizes they make a profit, plus increase in circulation and extra advertising for baby related items.

You could do something a lot better with your time and ask for donations to a charity that related to the affected child.

You are asking people to vote irrespective of which baby they think is most 'bonny' so that your neice can win the competition. You are using the power of a large community to throw the competition in favour of your neice.

Why don't you go back into your bedroom and finish your homework, your attitude betrays your age

Because I finished my homework last night and Mummy says I can play on the internet after I've done it.

it's the positive boost the family needs

What about the positive boost all the other families in the competition need?

Way to throw your toys out of the pram.

Just because I have money means I should waste it on you to help you cheat at a competition?

This crap should be banned. I had more clever words to back this up but I really can't be bothered typing them.

To paraphrase another (terrible) board : GD is not your personal army. If your 'bonny' kid/niece/whatever is that 'bonny' then you shouldn't need to fake-vote the results.

In short, get out.
