Thats highly presumptuous to say that people would use alts, and even if they did, that is why I'm in favor of Daz's idea of nominations done anonymously, with a limit on the nominations made per person. That way it doesn't matter if someone uses alts because once someone's nominated, they're nominated.

Even still, my post was mainly about DeeJ's apparent and irrational fear of letting us vote for stuff recently. So someone did something stupid once and he community reacted in kind. Big deal; move on.


How is it presumptuous? It's happened, it was out in the open. When something as serious as choosing a new moderator for the site pops up, it would be naive and silly to think that people aren't going to try and throw it, or otherwise make a ruckus out of it. DeeJ would have every right to not trust the community with something like that. His 'fear' isn't irrational at all, it's well-placed.

I think the forum ninjas should pick the forum ninjas.

Reading every post in this thread has made me weary as well as worrisome that this poor community will tear itself to the ground.

Mister death, thank you for mentioning me alongside burrito. Maybe now I won't die when he takes over.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

The issue is not cheating, the issue is the community.

People claim others have cheated just because they didn't want them to win. The only reason we couldn't do this is because if a certain person won something they didn't want them to win, they flip out like we have seen in the past.

Actually it was a number of people who wanted the other guy to "win". Mineself was included. God only knows what your "fan-club" got up to during that time

EDIT : I take it you were the one "flipping out"

Exactly, there are always people who want their friends or people they like to win and they vote for them. At the same time, people of the opposing faction call them out for it when they are doing the same thing.

The problem is that a civil war kind of erupts when someone lights the powder keg like people posting shopped pics of private groups or spreading rumors of cheating.

We can't handle anything serious yet.
