I just think it's funny how twice now, once after each of the last votes, people have *****ed and called for rule changes to manipulate the HoF to be what they want.

Personally I don't like the concept of a "number of post" requirements. Many fine candidates have less than 1,000 posts. Plus, I would hate to see somebody spamming just to be considered.
I also dislike having multiple ballot votes carried over. Maybe just the previous ballot votes should be considered or start from scratch every time.
As far as being qualified, there is really nothing we can do if some people want to turn this into a popularity contest and make deals to trade votes... blah blah blah.
IMHO, People should be considered:
For their work on the site... Data base managers, Interviews, running games, even mods... people that give their own time for the good of the community.
The contributions to the different game communties
(This is a gaming site and NOT a political or Off Topic Site) since it is an Apolyton Hall Of Fame and not just one specific forums HOF.
Contributions to a specific forum... IE people who have done significant things in a given forum (like the Off Topic) There are people who make the OTF what it is, and I have no problem with that... There are many fine traditions in the OTF... the coffee shop, the Finnish Thread, Sports Fantasy Games... Revised picture threads like the movie posters, and book covers... Many different things that make the OTF what it is...
But just "being" there is really no reason to elect somebody unless they truely add to the community.
Not that my thoughts are worth much... but if you are going to Call it the Hall Of Fame, make it mean something. If it is just a popularity contest, just have a diffferent contest for Favorite OTFer...Keep on Civin'
RIP rah, Tony Bogey & Baron OComment

Re: Ridiculous.
Osweld raises a good point -- have all Hall of Fame members send in their measurements and add that to the list.Originally posted by Osweld

Until Flatulus and Buttnugget get their due consideration, the Hall of Fame is truly nothing but a sham, a myth perpetuated by the capitalists in order to keep the workers down.<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures

No to the King clause.
If enough people feel that someone is worthy to be included in the HoF, then they should be included, regardless of whether their contributions were on-topic or off. Bear in mind, many of the OT "Princes" would be King or Emperor if OT posts counted.I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).Comment

I vote no
At the same time I sit in shame for this site as he is near elected, everyone knows that I bring the most flavour to this site BUT SINCE I DON'T CAMPAIGN, I GET CRAP.
I hate the institution and you're all going to be boiled down and mixed with chalk then sold as booster drinks on the local native reserve

If you get banned this time around Zylka, don't expect me to listen to any e-mails from you begging me to tell the mods I took it as a joke.

Seeing as how I didn't care to send you any e-mails, but rather those concerned - I wonder what your fantasies are drawing up this time?

What, was it supposed to be a secret - YOU ARE AN INSIDER!!@#@? I'd actually go out right now and publicize the whole thing as it was an intriguing piece of poly history, but then I wouldn't get too far without your hypersensitive lobby groups anally whining about how I ruined your ultra-suede right before the pride dance
