I don't think Tim should have been banned for being a "certified DOUCHE". Can you please show me the certification? I never knew you could get a certification for being a DOUCHE. Does it expire? How much does it cost? Does the certification vary by state

All jokes aside, I think people have been taking this awards thing a bit too far (which is why I have personally tried to exclude myself from running these awards. That among many other reasons to account for my lack of participation in board goings-on in the past while). From the get-go, I have seen people try to whore votes for themselves, namely Joey. While he wasn't sending out an email to friends saying he deserved the award, he did step out there and offer a platform why he should win in a certain category. While of course this tactic isn't against the rules, he did get razzed a bit by whoring himself in several categories, showing that he may have been a bit "desperate" to win something. I feel that people are viewing Tim's tactic of whoring votes as "desperate" for winning something he thinks he might not win due to the nature of FGC (or at least how he views it). By principle, is this really that different from other people's campaigning? I don't really agree that Tim's tactic goes along with the spirit of the awards, but I don't think he should be banned for it. And his actions definitely do not call for people (especially mods and admins) to be calling him a certified douche. This just reinforces the notion that there are cliques at FGC, and that a major clique is the administration! Basically I just saw a few members of the modmin team and a few of their groupies calling out and ganging up on Tim.

Maybe people are taking these awards a bit too seriously. I really enjoyed past years awards, but I haven't enjoyed these ones so much. MAYBE ITS BECAUSE I DIDNT GET NOMINATED IN EVERY CATEGORY AND I DIDN'T EVEN WIN IN THE CATEGORY THAT WAS I NOMINATED IN, FUCKERS!

I agree with your post Natasha. I am aware that people were encouraged to state why they should win. I will post a longer and more detailed post to you and to Zach in the admin forum on why I posted what I posted. I think if I were to continue my response in this thread, I would be beyond what needs to be said publicly.
