Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Still think that rewarding social media whores with extra draws in the entry aint right...

Hopefully only Fetchies who actually contribute to the forums can win? I know of numerous people who only register to enter Christmas competitions.

isn't that the idea though? To generate more users for the site? Contribution to the forums is just one of many aspects of being a Fetchie :)

How are they contributing to the site if they only access the site during December and then disappear back to the Running Bug and UK Run Chat? If we are taking about numbers of users generating more income then unfortunately this site is now way behind Run Mummy Run, the Running Bug and other sites. I've got no idea why.

SSH is right - part of the competition is about raising awareness of the site, and you can't do that without getting people to tell other people about it.

However, I do take the point that it's much nicer when it's Fetchies that make a contribution to the community that pick up the prizes. Everyone is different though, and everyone brings something different to our community, so it would be impossible to come up with one rule to cover everything.

Instead, as you might have noticed today, there's a challenge associated with entry. Tomorrow there will be a different one. Each one is loosely based around the idea of encouraging people to make a contribution to our community. And there will be points for more than just being a "social media whore" :-)

Gimme a chance :-)
