    I wonder if whining about a commission for voter fraud will effect the Playa campaign as much as whining about registration effected the Bedard campaign...

    Calling a spade a spade is not whining. You guys killed a good idea and now one of your supporters want to replace with another idea to accomplish the same goal which is no longer an issue? Im sorry I dont see the point of it, especially with less then a week left. Do you?

    Did I say whether I agreed with the idea or not??? As far as us killing a "good idea"... that's your opinion, obviously we thought it was a bad one. I don't particularly think this is necessary either as it hasn't been too difficult to tell who is an alias and who isn't, which was the whole reason I was againt the registration too, I found it a lot of unnecessary work for the same damn reason.

    A non- affiliated staff member pointing out a DISCREET way to check into these things instead of starting threads about it is whining, eh?



    Sounds like your party is against easy voting for the masses and intimidating those lurkers who do vote into publically humiliating "calling outs" taht keep them from voting again......

    I wasn't talking about you in the least Dozer... I was referring to Draftboy complaining about it, they jumped all over us when we were against the registration idea.

    For the record, I noticed several voters that had almost no posts and didn't seem familiar to me, but I didn't say a word about it, just because people don't post all the time, doesn't mean they aren't here reading all the time.

    Oui...... Lets have a vote on how to vote.


    Honestly this has got to be an awful lot so whatever you guys decided is cool by me.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    I didnt say you agreed with it or not, I said your supporter does after your campaign killed the last idea. Dont start jumping to conclusions now we are merely debating a topic. I wasnt concerned with voter fraud and that registration was going to end that. I like the dedication is adds to the game and the fact that voters get to feel even more included plus it allows us to reach whole new audiences and run voter registration drives which are really a lot of fun and is a great way to quickly incorporate new posters into the zone without having them lurk for months to figure out what the heck is going on here.

    Not complaining simply pointing out the differences between what your campaign wanted and what one of your supporters is now asking for and also stating for the record my difference in opinion. Complaining would be me going through multiple threads and starting my own threads about it. I dont like doing that stuff though.

    People, relatives, coworkers may and do have the same IP addresses. It's stupid that people insiinuate girlfreinds/wives/ coworkers- some who are long time members are openly disputed. Valerie and I post on the same computer- is that fake????

    What makes it worse is that Billszone staff permeate both campaigns, and they have the abilty to try and do their own "detective work" before leveling voter fraud charges that this voter, or that voter aren't legit. In the end- these witch hunts are for the most part coming up empty. Most who have been under scrutiny have eventually been cleared as legit or at the least, been deemed "probably legit".

    In the end, it makes everyone look kinda petty.




    Here is my proposal- and I'll use my inflence as a site co-founder to legitimize it.





    1- ALL INQUIRIES about the legitimacy of a voter will be handled via PM ONLY. No public debates on the boards or in ther mod private forums.

    2- I will assist in verifying any votes. It shouldn't be to hard.

    3- Any staff of the zone involved in a campaign should recuse himself from the process for proprietry's sake



    Opinions?


    The Zone needs someone that actually has a pair to tell the whiners to STFU.

    Problem is that most of the whiners are already on your fine staff.

    STFU! I'm sick of your whining about the staff. If you don't like them, get the **** out of here.

    So everything is fine then, eh?

    I don't have a leg to stand on.

    I didn't start voter registration. If you guys were smart, the election should have been a non-public poll, and shelby as ultimate poobah would eliminate the fraud privately. This would have prevented all the whining and gnashing of teeth.
