Title: Mark Jones Inquiry
Post by MVT on 07/15/10 at 10:34:19

This guy has decided to use his administrative powers to give him a completely unfair advantage, in effect rigging the competition. In case you didn't know he has decided to shut off the ability for some people to vote in contest matchups. Not only is that unfair, but he is selectively choosing people that he thinks will not vote for him and is not allowing them to vote at all. The custom icons was controversial, but this goes leaps and bounds beyond that. This simply isn't fair and we might as well cancel / suspend the contest if this isn't corrected right now. It's beyond a campaign tactic, it is cheating and has to stop. All people should have the right to vote. If Mark Jones is desperate enough to resort to such tactics what's to say he won't go even further and modify vote totals? This is so pathetic.

MVT, if you care more about yourself and less about others you'll live longer.

Considering oneshot is using multiple accounts to try to cast extra votes, I wouldn't exactly be broken-hearted if he really was banned from voting. But (surprise!), it's actually just MVT complaining about nothing again.

All I have to say is at no point did I reach the confirmation screen when I first voted so I there was no way I would know it went through. Again another problem cause by Jones being a mug. I really hope you lose now you cheat.

Pretty hypocritical if you think about who was the one to originally "not play nice" in this contest.

That was for lolz, and I'm referring to the constant flaming and negative campaigning.

Yeah, for "lolz". Becuase we all know how hilarious it is when you invite random people to the forum just to vote for you. HAHAH hilarious. ;D

Also, do I recall a certain post on your "Manly" forum where you said you were doing it for "teh prestige", and not "teh lolz"??

Again, "not playing nice". :-*
