New Deal Submission Form - Help and How to, comments and feedback
Please keep this thread on topic guys, if you spot any issues or bugs please let us know asap.
Below is a step by step guide on how to use the new deal submission form.
We've designed this to make the deal/thread submission process easier, to help underline duplicate deals and avoid the problem of incorrect merchants being added to deals.
Please note you still need to be proactive in checking whether your deal has been posted previously

* If the suggested duplicate is the same as the one you're adding, check out the original deal- see how long it's been on site etc. If it's older than a month then you can go ahead and repost.
* If you don't think the suggested duplicate is in any way relevant to the deal then please let us know as it may be a bug.
* If you think your deal is original and not a repeat post, then doublecheck and click "No, Not a Duplicate."
* If your deal is a duplicate, then click the relevant button.

which the new system didn't catch as a dupe as obviously the URL would be different to the direct link.
This is still a work in progress and obviously isn't going to be 100% but hopefully it will help the situation with dupe postings.
