From the article: Will I Be Disqualified for Using Roboform?
Do you use Roboform to enter sweepstakes? Whether Roboform is a must-have sweepstakes tool or a road to disqualification is a hotly-debated topic in the sweepstakes hobby. Weigh in on your opinion here! Share Your Opinion
Won Yesterday
- First win after about eight days using Rofoform. Twas only a five dollar gas card, I figure that I'll start slow and build. I enter sweeps as a hobby not a business and Roboform gives me a fuller appreciation and enjoyment of my efforts.

Roboform
- I use it, but follow the advice of a regular at Mr Sweepy's site who has won many GP's as well as prizes monthly...I fill in with robo then I tab through all the spaces and for one - usually city, I backspace and type in the last few. I agree, sweepers visit the site, learn new things about the sponsers and many times bookmark the page or sign up for mailings.

RoboForm
- Why Using RoboForm Does Not Violate Sweepstakes Rules RoboForm is a client-side agent that saves you keystrokes by filling forms for you. Web sites that offer sweepstakes want you to learn about their products and to see their advertising. If you use RoboForm to fill forms on these sites, you still learn about their products and you still see their advertising. RoboForm is completely legal, because it does not deprive web site owners of their page views and therefore their revenue. Many sweepstakes rules state that "Automated Entry" is illegal. What they mean is that if a program fills an entry form and clicks the Submit button for you then you will not see their site and you will not learn about their products. But RoboForm does not do that you still have to check results of form filling and click the Submit button.

Manually
- I enter manually because I don't want to risk being disqualified. Aslo, the hard work and dedication of manulally typing hundreds of entry forms gives me a great feeling...when I win, that my hard work paid off.

ROBO Form
- I use it all the time and won some nice prizes. I started using it years ago.

Roboform has it's place
- I use Roboform for almost every sweepstakes with the exception of the insistance of hand typing in the rules or if the prize is large and the rules state "no entries by script, macro, robotic or similar means of entry" Why risk forfeiting a big prize?

No taking chances
- Almost every sweeps says in their rules somewhere that micro, robo and other automatic means of entry will be disqualified. Well thats a 50/50 shot that it means roboform right? I dont enter sweeps for my health and typing for hours a day isnt all that fun either. So, when it comes to sweeps why waste your time taking chances. Its not worth the risk to me. And you will never know if your entries are being disqualified or not.

i don't
- I use the google form filler, works good enough for me. Good enough that I don't plan to change.

i don't use roboform
- I don't use it because I worry about getting disqualified. I do use my IE fill sometimes.

Not Me!
- Tried it and it's great. But decided against it because perhaps, computer can detect instant sweeping. Use auto fill, but fill out birth date and city manually.

New to Roboform and Sweeps
- After one week of getting the newsletter and using the free Roboform and sweeping I won an instant prize - bottle of Gain laundry detergent, a coupon is supposed to be mailed to me! I believe I am off to a great start!

Use of Roboform to enter sweeps
- Even though I'm 99% sure I've had some large and small wins with Roboform, I hesitate to use it for entering on the major magazines. I feel with $250,000 up for grabs, the rules should be followed. Sweepstakes have been good this year so I must be doing something right.
