Poll for Part V reopened

Our latest poll has been re-opened. Sorry about the mix-up! It will remain open until 6 AM EST tomorrow to give those who missed out time to get their vote in.

We will be taking a short break once that poll has closed to sort out the votes from the last three polls. Socks socks everywhere! What turns out to be sock votes will be discarded and we'll announce our very first champions once we have a good handle on what to count and what not to count.

Thank you again for your votes!

huh, I thought you said you "frequented" capslock.

Um, yes. Fans of a ship "frequent" places of their ship, don't they? Apologies if my use of terminology confused people. I've ever had problems with others understanding me whenever I used the term.

And honestly I would have posted any evidence of cheating from other people from other comms if I had seen similar comments in other places. Why everyone is going crazy and accusing me of being a butt hurt shipper from an opposing ship is beyond me. :\ I just don't like unfairness, and as this post was about sock accounts I thought I could help out.

I understood you, I just find it odd that if you're familiar with the capslock community you'd think that was all super yelling rage instead of goofing around.

I think the reason people are reacting so much is cause you keep pushing it just a bit too far, is all. The first comment got a "LOL" but also one pretty straightforward reasonable reply, then you went and called them a hypocrite. That seems more like making things personal and accusatory than just trying to help out. Then you've even got screencaps that you prepared beforehand just in case, even your "wow, chill" seems like you're being obtuse on purpose.

What I'd honestly suggest is sending a private message to the moderators involved next time you want to help out or complain about unfairness. Because if you're NOT trying to stir up wank, the way you keep at it in these public posts is really giving the wrong impression and provoking people instead.

I love that comm. :) I never thought there was screaming rage there.

The hypocrite comment was made because that particular individual did vote using an old account of theirs. Someone had reported her yesterday.

Okay, I'll do that next time if this situation comes up again.

Okay, I have to be fair about this.

Don't. Just. Don't. Please.

I know you're angry, but please don't make assumptions like that. This is asking for wank, you know.

Because accusing people without evidence is asking for wank.

I'm not scared, I'm merely asking you politely to control your temper because I consider you a fellow fan.
