A nice guideline for next year's voters.

Re: A nice guideline for next year's voters.

There should be an electoral college system. Maybe by rep points or something. While I congratulate playa, just look at all the heavy hitters who voted for MBB and the nobodies who voted for playa.

What constitutes a "heavy hitter" and a "nobody"?

I think it should be a requirement of all the candidates next year that they at least post in the main forum on a regular basis.

I also think that any running mates, staff members, etc should not be actual members of the site's staff.

I was going to say the same thing. No BillsZone staff working on any campaign.

A nobody would be someone who never posts anymore and a heavy hitter would be one of the admins that helped created this site.

I agree. I like the way you think. If I had a running mate like you, instead of the ballast I had, we would have won.

Well I came a year late but I do post pretty much every day a couple times...

I'm kinda on the fence about that. I'm not sure it matters as much as the stipulations about voting. For example, it could help promote donations if only donors can vote.
If you're a donor, you really care about the site, and want to help it succeed. I'm sure there's those who care but can't afford it, but it could help promote donations. I'm sure there are those who have donated in the past that post regularly, but can't afford to, that some of us could help out, too.
Just some ideas.

EE, maybe if you hadn't pulled a Phil, you would have won this election.
i will say this, you had some great ideas.

It wasn't a knock on you. It was more towards the people that voted for both people that never post at all. Those people really shouldn't get a say in the situation.

I like mybills idea. Donors only.

I agree with this 100%

Re: A nice guideline for next year's voters.

I get what you are saying I dont agree.

Firstly regular basis is probably open to interpretation, secondly I know a handful of zoners who read that forum everyday but hardly ever post. And they are active members at other areas of the site.

I dont know that having a staff member on your team makes much difference as every team had one. Maybe not presidents/vp's, but certainly zone staffers should be allowed to participate as team staffers.

Especially not an administrator. Too close to the controls, IMO.

I disagree about "donor" only voters allowed.

I needed a break. You should be familiar with that concept.

Why? What's your reason(s) not to...
is it wrong to raise money for the site?
