It's an individual's choice, you vote in anyone who feel like, deserved it. I think everyone worth it, but at the end is just one person gonna be a winner. If everyone was in the running it would a 10 way tie with one or two votes a piece, a spectacular mess. It why we have the nomination stage.

I doubt everyone that has been nominated will make the final cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the period for nominations expires a new thread opens up with the poll. Admin have enough to do without having to go through a month worth of posts of multiple members to decide who should be in running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's @Knight Baridafirst time for the nomination and he's going to get a front row seat of how things are done. The nomination is the easy part.

I think that trying to nominate every active member for the sake of it will eventually leave someone out. Best to let it run its course naturally.

I’m just trying to prevent situations where someone may feel unwanted in the community for not being a part of the nomination process if forgotten about when the idea is to get all names on there. So this is the last I’ll say on that. Just had to speak my mind about it. And I do appreciate all for trying to include everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 So long as we're not too harsh on non-voters I'm fine with things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, what is the big deal with making nominations of worthy members? I do think that the more users can get nominated, it's going to be a heated contest unlike if it's just for few members.

The Blackangel Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I'm just curious. Is everyone just going to talk about how @Empire deserves a nomination, or is someone actually going to nominate him? I've already cast my nomination, so I can't do it. But I noticed a long drawn out conversation about him deserving a nomination. DC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaramaki Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 In agree with @The Blackangel about the long out conversations being pointless but I'm not gonna nominate anybody since imo it should go to someone who's posts contribute towards the community in a positive way and posts that make sense and i haven't been here for too long so i feel like i've not got the right to do so. Since we are on the subject of long drawn out conversations : I know it's not not a populair oppinion but a lot of threads especially in the general gaming section go on for way too long to the point it doesen't really have anything to do with the topic in particulair. It makes it hard to read trough all "spam" posts and takes up way more time then it should be to fish out the quality posts. If you wanna chat why not use the general chat section instead.

I agree, general gaming is a mess. I would never even consider starting a topic in it because it would just get buried under topics have gone off the rails and should've died weeks and months ago.

Trust me, the problem has not gone unnoticed. I won't name names, but there are some people who seem to post on certain sub-forums in mass, rapid sessions without really giving much care to the quality, relevance, overall purpose to what they post and whether or not they have made the same point on the same thread already. It is posting anything for the sake of something. Nobody can break the rules by "posting too much", but some individuals really need thier definition of being "active" redefined. The General Gaming sub-forum has suffered the most because of this. Unfortunatly, because they're not breaking any rules and any rule governing how much someone can post could be considered heavy handed, this is not an easy problem to solve. The only real way this problem can be solved is for those that do this (and they know who they are, as do the mod team) to start taking more care and putting more thought not only into what they post, but why they're posting it in the first place.

Best to let it run its course naturally. I got your point, even though we are trying to make it more competitive than what other previous editions offered in the past. But still, it shouldn't be drawn out nominating a roaster of names in a pointless manner. But everyone still have their choice, I did mine and nominated who I craved for. I am waiting for the voting to get underway soon. I am not hoping to win, I just want to see how this gonna turn out to be, to see if the voting counts supercede the previous editions that aren't up to 20 votes overall.

The Blackangel Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I don't even post in the General Gaming board anymore, with a rare exception. Threads get lost there so easy, and most of them go way off topic. Which is what this thread is doing. So lets all get back on topic. @DC locks the nomination threads anyway once he posts the voting thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
