    Armor contest polling thread

    2points one more direct than another.

    Would be nice if a mod could create a thread for the armor contests (even if its not used for consideration in deciding the actual winner). Yes we could do so as forums goers ourselves, however post limits in this case would prevent a single user from setting one up in a single timely maner (52 entries for each catagory). A simple Name/link to image per entrant would work.

    Side item: I would like to see some mod driven topics, or basic mod additions to enhance current featured events. Not to necesarilly disuade people from presenting their own ideas. Just something to generate/show interaction which is overall despiritly missing, and is quite frankly a basic community building tool that seems to be lacking. (This is not a 'the community is toxic statement', this is a community is almost non-existent on the official forums statement).

    52 entries, and what would be the point, exactly?

    It was a typo which was being corrected through edits.
    The point was it would just be interesting to see in one spot who likes what, as a community builder.

    I agree that it would be interesting. Could use Strawpoll.

    They did that kind of thing for the hairstyle contest and the amount of salt was out of this world. The community has kind of spoiled this for themselves.

    The "community" was bound to degenerate into that when there is no visible moderation one way or another. It leaves the impression that people can speak on behalf of the community at large, wether they actually do or not, as opposed to only speaking as themselves and leaving the point made open for agreement or disagreement in a civil manner.

    Besides it would still be fun to see what everyone likes as a whole without having to parse together results from 3 (so far that I've found) separate threads, based on post content rather than the like metric.

    Also the issue with the hairstyle thread was they made the voting convoluted, instead of simple like it if you like it don't if you don't.
