On ECF competitions are only run by suppliers and only on their subforums. Sounds sensible to me. Then the supplier determines the rules. If someone is dissatisfied, the supplier has to explain and the supplier has the final say. The members's part of the forum has nothing to do with competitions. ECF also only allows new members to post in the newbie section - only after 5 posts (I think) are they allowed to post everywhere else.
It was originally posted under the Vape king sub-forum but then CVS jumped on board and added to the prize which is why it was moved to another section on the forum.
We will look at how they do things and use it as a guideline for future competitions though
