Can I post on B&B; if I'm under 5 feet tall? By the way, I wouldn't mind seeing this done here, but then... I'm pretty much ambivalent about everything.

I've been to B&B;, it's a lot more crap than our Boozeramas. I've never heard, seen, or smelled MOTM in the while I've been there, or learned anything (That is useful.).

ares1's idea sounds pretty good, but Starkiller has a point. Fans of board 'celebrities' might begin arguing about who is better, etc. etc., particularly newbies, causing member division. And then the less newb-ish members would start bickering, and on and on. Even the our 'elders' whom we're taught to respect, will start bitching like hounds after a racoon.

Oh, It make me feel all warm and tingly inside. :rolleyes:

Let's not have a flame war between EV and B&B.;

Oh come on, you don't really believe that do you? This is a fairly mature board, and only a few rogue newbies would end up bickering, if anyone at all. I'll bet that if we were to do this, it would work out nicely, but it looks like the idea will never be realized, so we can probably stop worrying about it.

Yes, this is becoming a flame war. Someone lock this topic...

I love this forum as much as everyone here. I don't want to debate which is better; I like them both. You're the one who decided to make the distinction, and you're also the one who seems to like starting conflicts and making inflamitory comments.

While I agree that the members won't bicker, I still think that it would upset people if the votes were public, since it would appear to be a side-choosing thing.

It would not do that anymore than karma would. Besides, most people here are mature enough so as not to be isulted by such things. I already went over all of this. Let's just lock the topic and drop the idea.

No, it isn't. It's just a case of someone who likes to flame people and start arguments doing what he likes to do.

No, I think that it would hurt people inside for each member to actively make a vote. If Alex wasn't voted for by Jerry, for instance, Alex might feel that Jerry simply doesn't like him. If only one person votes for Alex, well, Alex might feel kind of bad about it. We have a very nice dynamic on this board, and I think that publicly picking people like that would destroy it.

There really is no need to lock the topic as long as it hasn't fallen prey to Sierra's Law or flame wars, particularly if members are discussing things. And hey, if they aren't, the topic will die on its own. 🙂

I really do not think that the people here will get their feelings hurt. This is just a little internet forum, and who the people here like more really means very little, and I think that people realize that. I am going to stop posting here, because it seems that the idea is dead, and we should let the topic die.

I agree that many people would realize that, but I still don't like the idea of publicly "choosing favorites".

It was all well and good until the B&Bers; found this topic. 😛 😉 j/k. But we could do a secret ballot. Whoever is the nominator would get e-mails from voting members. And the nominator would promise never to tell the vote tally, just who won. And how many people should run? four sounds good so it's not Bob versus Joe or something like that.

I count as an EV forum quasi-regular, too! 😛

Yeah well, I finally come up with a really cool idea and suddenly it gets shot down, stomped on, talked to by Marvin, run over, and spit on. Or something to that effect...
