Cannot Post 'Hot Find'

grimbles · 27. Sep 2009, 11:53 PM

G'Day - Just tried to post two hot finds on the main site. Read through the instructions and posted the first one OK after entering captcha code but I couldn't post the second one. Kept getting a message that my submission had been identified as spam, didn't even get the captcha code thingee. Was logged on OK.

thanks.....JIM

Regarding USB Safely Remove we need to have information about the restrictions. When checking out the link I get a message saying the offer is not available in my country, but there is no information to say which ones it is.

I'm not sure about the problem with your second Hot Find unless there is a safeguard in place to prevent multiple postings. I'll look into this.

Hey MC - I posted all the information that was available, there was no mention of any restrictions. In fact the details on the submission page were identical to those for the first Hot Find posted on the main site a few weeks back.

Your hypothesis about multiple postings is probably accurate as I was submitting one right after the other. Still it is strange, seeing as I was logged on to the site, that the first post got the OK and the second one from the exact same source (me

) was rejected.

Thanks for the reply mate,
JIM

Hi Jim

I've published the USB find with an added note rather than lose time trying to extract a list of qualifying countries from the vendor.
