First off I’d like to thank all of you for your participation in this little endeavor. Now I’m sure all of you are wondering what would posses me to do this. Well it was to prove a point…. Don’t worry I’m not going to renege on my offer. I’m not going to tarnish my honor doing that.
What I’m going to say will probably get me banned, but I’ve been really disgusted with this site. Some of you really have some big ones. Problem is you either don’t realize you’re doing this or you just don’t care. I find it really sad that after posting this all of the sudden I was Mister Popular. Funny how one single photo got tons of replies yet one I posted days prior pretty much went unnoticed. This wasn’t an attempt to get a photo noticed by the way. It was to point out that there are other members of this site who put a 110% into the photos they do or contribute to this site in some small fashion. Yet the ones who get all the praise and gratitude seems to be the same people i.e. Ender, Outrider, Lordraven, Stormer, Toneguns…The list goes on. As far as I’m concerned you guys are moderators just with out the title. You’ve all developed your own little clique. Judging by the replies on this post you all pretty much look out for either yourselves or each other. I remember a couple posts on this site that refers to us as family and friends…. Not really the case here. A good example is wishing Happy Birthday to members. Is it really that hard to list everyone’s Birthday for the month? No it only took me a few minutes out of my time to wish everyone Happy Birthday. People it’s the little things in life that go a long way. By that I mean make a positive comment about someone’s photo not some jerk off comment that certain members like to make. Reply to an IM when you get one and yes I really do thinks that’s rude to ignore someone like that and more so now seeing a few members who have done it now what something free. There are countless ways we can help each other on this site and get that Family feel we claim we have here. However some of us get blown off because we don’t fit into the clique. Yet it’s these same clique members throwing their hands up saying “give it to me”



Okay now on to the winners….
This decision wasn’t easy, but I will say this… Moderators you were excluded from the beginning sorry I’ve been to way too many sites where the moderator benefits from having built a site. (My nice way of putting it) I however have never been that lucky the last site I created ended up, being “destroyed” because a certain person decided to screw me on a trade. So when I stood up for myself I ended up with a lot of bad publicity towards my site, suspended from another and banned from another. Funny part on that was later on he was caught bid shilling on Ebay. Yet he’s still a respected member of the Joe community… go figure.
Jay I hate to say it, but you almost had it. The problem was the comment about Karma. Dude you don’t decide when you deserve Karma it decides when you deserve it. Giving up seats on the bus and subway to elderly people and pregnant women that’s called being a gentleman.
