Member of the Month

[Classics]

Voted no but to be honest it does not effect me as I vote based on my own opinion not others and I don't see why people would get mad because you didn't vote for them... does not make much sense to me.

 

I have proposed using a selected list of members in the past, but a lot of people don't recommend it for obvious reasons. The MOTM I host every month isn't as active as it used to be anyways, so I guess a list chosen by me would be fair.

Voted yes, this would increase the honesty of people's votes and I suspect it would also do wonders for the amount of people that take part.

 

[xx Sean]

I think more people would vote, so support.

 

[ADM_Trader]

Voted for yes

 

[nonamekiller]

Yes, but using the forum poll would be a problem because of the fact that it will be from just a list of people, and not a free vote(or as free as it is now)

What are you babbeling on about?

Im going to vote yes, because I think voting without persuasion from others will be much more Better

may I recommend www.formspring.me for the anonymous voting

Here's what I am babbling on about:

The majority of people who vote in MOTM are the same 20, 30 people. They vote for the same 3, 4 people. I've never bothered to even mess with the voting/nominating because, as you've generously demonstrated, attempting to break apart the boy's club even a little bit warrants an attack. Thanks for proving my point. Adding anonymity to the process will limit or erase such an event from happening, and members outside of the "Spam Forum Club" will have a chance.

EDIT: I'm not going to bother looking back at this or replying to any other attacks. I suggest you don't reply unless you have a good reason to do so. Your more-than-apparent dislike of me has added enough stench to FireZ's thread. My purpose in replying was not to "defend" myself; I was just elucidating my point as per request and because I feel my reasoning should be stated.

 

Eh, I have a better idea for January 2011's MOTM. I think this would have been better if you talked to me about it first, FireZ. Next month, we most likely will have yearly awards, so I'll skip December's MOTM. That gives me a good two months to think of something and increase community activity.

Please lock.

You don't own the event.

FireZ is welcome to post suggestions that can improve community threads.

I host it, and I never said he shouldn't.

Quoted for fucking truth.


Yes, I think it should be anonymous, eliminates the need for friendship voting...

 

[Trey i am]

yes this would be nice but maybe for donators only?

 

[Brendan]

I don't really see any way it could hurt. The only thing it could do is help for those who don't want other people to see who they voted for, for social reasons, etc. Support.

 

[Louis]

Yes, I'm tired of people copying each other.

 

[Lucster]

Yes, sounds like a change for the better tbh.
