Portable-Palooza 2009 - Voting Was Influenced

[J.D]

Hmm, looks like we have settled down. Coffee break, maybe?

[hailrazer]

hail, let me know if you want me to ship back the prizes.

SS

Heck no, build something nice , make some money, and keep the forums running.

What's the big deal? There was an issue, everyone said their piece, now life moves on.

Go build some portables

[ShockSlayer]

Cool, I just, above all, wanted to make sure that everything is cool now.

Alright, this about wraps it up.

LOL, was just thinking the same thing... no post in 10 minutes.

Indeed, no-one wants bitterness. Contrary to what some in power here think, I just want harmony.

Thread ended?

[J.D]

Well, this thread is close to pointless now. But...the argument isn't really finished though.

You want harmony yet point the finger at others?

[J.D]

Dude, WTF?

[snowpenguin]

Don't delete it, though.

Woah! This guy must be an adult, he is way better than me at resolving things.

EDIT: Triton, that was SS, and he wasn't pointing a finger, just a possibility. Cool it.

This is what I was refering to. Now who is bitter? Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black to me. Now I'm going to leave this well enough alone, I've said my piece.

EDIT: To be perfectly clear, I am not "pissed off" just telling things as I see them.

[J.D]

Sayanara, I guess.

Everyone gets pissed off. That's why arguments happen.

[schmellyfart]

Well looks like I missed the party

Now I'm not saying that Marshall deserved to win, mind you. However, take a look at the following list of people that didn't vote for him at all:
- ShockSlayer
- nightwheel
- Zero_D
- iamscuzzo
- bacteria
- schmellyfart
- icarus
- spinout
- DNT 2.5
- palmertech
- thewizdog
- eurddrue (through SS)
- HotDog_Cart
- Kyosho

It's composed almost entirely of MR members, including most of the mods and admin.

For the record, even though I am a member of modretro, I only have a couple posts outside of "Finished Projects" and "The Junkyard", and those were posted a couple months ago. I had nothing do do with this plot/scheme/whatever you want to call it. I didn't vote for marshall because I wanted to vote for the well made portables hiding in marshall's and bacteria's shadows. I suppose lazer's shadow as well

This is exactly the kind of "I think I'm better than you" attitude that made some people rather dislike you.

Ridiculous and heavily biased as always against me aren't you bic? Hardly impartial as you are supposed to be. Fingernails slipping off the cliff?

Many people here (not just mods, before you play that card) feel you hold a very high opinion of yourself, and you have to admit you're not the most humble when it comes to your accomplishments. That kind of behavior gets really old fast.

What did you expect me to think when I read "We aren't accountable to BH, so stop being bothered by what they think, like they matter! "? You've had it out for us since the 'rather dislike' incident.

The fact that you were so quick to be defensive and try to put yourself in a dominant position speaks volumes.

Like I already said, I respect you. But when you start in with this malarky you slowly wear that respect away.

[vskid]

I'm saying lazer bribed, and you guys said nothing.

Nothing until now, that is. Why wait so long?

Just FYI, most of us have lives. That means we have better things to do than search another forum for schemes against a contest hosted by our site. I know I didn't find out about the "plans" until after the voting was over.
