SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Allright, enough of all the pointless bickering and screen cap nonsense. None of it is producing constructive debate. Bungie knows that there are serious flaws with online polls. Lets stop exaggerating the importance of some cute little contest DeeJ put together for our proposed enjoyment. If you have a problem with someone's conduct, let DeeJ or a ninja know. Otherwise, leave it alone, and out of this thread.

My patience grows thin.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

Navweb got my vote.

I'm actually surprised I made the list! At this point in the game, I think it's safe to say SKen probably gets it. I tip my hat to him.

I want this contest to run its course, so let's all cool our jets. Vote your conscience, but let's sideline the personal attacks and anger.

If we can't arrive at a sense that justice has been served, I may have to arrange a virtual duel between the two finalists. My happy little contest has become a referendum between the Try Hards and the Mythics.

The Internet can be such a stage sometimes.
Maybe if submission-promotion for votes wasn't allowed and approved of then this wouldn't happen...


nothing is wrong with asking people to vote for you. if you have a group of supporters why not give them a heads up of what is going on and ask for support


Because they're likely to blindly vote for you to help you out rather than vote after looking at all of the submissions with a merit based grading system. The point of the contest is to pick the community's favorite picture, not to pick the picture of the community member with the most friends.

Constructive debate on the internet? And on B.net? Funny. This was destined to happen from the get go. Especially with the parties involved. And that should have been obvious.

The legitimacy of someone's promotion tactics and vote-getting-strategy is directly relative to the topic at hand, (who has the best picture of the seven) and so I fail to see any off-topic-ness of these sort of posts and therefore your patience growing thin seems, to me, to be a separate matter entirely.

I believe our definitions of constructive are different.

I'm not saying anything to the contrary.

I am however saying that this has been in the bad territory thread wise for far to long. I'm saying that its time to stop the bickering, and let this contest run its course. All the "no its ur fault" crap is avoidable, and its time people let it go.

They are more aimed towards flaming each other then actually discussing the point of the contest/poll.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

Was that an attempt at sounding intelligent? The mod essentially just said "Who gives a crap?" and you responded with "I care a lot!"

Also lol Kurt is making this awesome.

I didn't say it was off topic. I implied its "not playing nice". I don't care about this contest, nor the tactics people are using to vote for or against someone/something. I just don't want to have to start banning people for being jerks to each other.

Its easy to avoid taking a "this is flawed" discussion and turning it into the same old personal crybaby internet drama. That is what I'm asking people to do, and that is where my patience is growing thin.
