Competitions can often be used to extremely good effect. Generating a feeling of added community atmosphere throughout, how so you ask, well by having a systematic and regular competition ensures that member participation will gradually but surely increase in a bid to win one of your prizes. Logic will of course prevail that the greater the prize you are giving away then the greater the interest, participation and registration rates.

i used the post in desperation to attempt to resolve my trap17 hosting problem , where i could only access my webpage and cpanel very intermittantly. the problem seemed to be an error on the trap17 server when it originally created my account.

i was dealing with buffalohelp on this issue , who was unable to resolve the problem as he did not have server access , only opaque has that.
he suggested completely deleting my account , hence losing all my credits and he would then gift credits back to me to enable me to recreate my account.
i did this , but unfortunately buffalohelp was then unable to gift the credits due to the way the gifting software worked.

he suggested that i get posting again to get my credits back up again.
i looked at all the recent new posts and didnt think that there was much there for me to be able to constructively post on , i probably could have waffled ... but what is the point in that.

so at then i asked my lad if he had anything that he had written that i could post as a new topic to assist me in earning credits.
i did not realise that i should have said if they had been posted elsewhere when i created the topic.

i apologise for my error , but in my defence it was done in desperation to try and sort out my faulty hosting account.

my account is now working perfectly and i am really grateful to buffalohelp for all his time and trouble that he went to in resolving my problem.

well i was going to say something even though it has been edited, but I will anyways.


they sound like good ideas but not to many people use due to the fact that it doesn't do anything for the members of the forum.
