1) Because they are random.

2) Because banner rotations aren't that random and copying&pasting is hard

3) Because you don't read rpm's OP:

Not all comps are random. But yeah.

4) Because you're a no-post wonder and those guys never win anything.

Been here since 2003 entered most and never won anything. I don't bother anymore, just a waste of time when noobs win and long standing members dont

Some long standing members win multiple times... Have faith!
 
I disagree with OP's addition to the third point.

What's so wrong about starting a thread saying "I watch videos from these channels, I'm curious to see what else is out there, what channels do you guys watch"?

Yes, I started it - do I feel that it'll land me with a PS4? No.

Do I check out the channels others suggest? Yes.

Therefore, does it benefit? Yes.

Saying that, I didn't check if there was another thread of the same topic, but I'm sure when deciding the winner, my thread would be excluded. In which case, so be it.
 
Until they clamp down on multiple entries (that exceed the limit allowed) and clones, I don't see the point.
 
I don't like this promoting adverts that I can't see thing so I don't bother.

Surveys, sometimes things like the current competition and some others I enter but I have won nothing here.

You obviously have the Dark One's own luck, that's what it takes for your name to be drawn out the hat :D

I came third place some time ago, in a competition to win 400K in home improvements. All I got was a festering R500 Builder's voucher! :D

Did you have adblock on?

I disabled adblock for myBB. Solved my problem :)

I have adblock on because the mybb adverts irritate me.
Just not worth the effort.

Why raise my stress levels by reading about something I would not buy due to an advert just to enter a competition I will not win?
