That's why 50/50 is a good solution but no, people still want to complain.

I haven't heard any complaints.....other then those who DON'T want things to change. I've only seen different ideas posted, and pros and cons of those ideas mentioned
interesting - becuase it seems that the '5 or 6 other contests already lined' up found it at least minimally enticing - don't get me wrong, I am all for finding a reasonable, consistent methodology to share the love and involve new members, old members, middle-aged members - but I don't necessarily believe that going from one perceived extreme to the other is the answer - and heck, I could be completely wrong - but, to Ninja's point, the thread was posted for input, and the broader a perspective we can provide, the more likely a more tenable approach is found... part of the key is actually participating in 'em, in my opinion (beyond the occasional 'yah - i never winz' post...) or the isolationist approach... this is a huge and diverse community - granted, there are a number of folks who have won in multiple big contest threads (i'm one of em - and half the goods are in other vapers hands being used as we speak) and there are a number for folks who will - invariably - kvetch about how it's just not fair (to them), regardless of the approach... but the discussion has at least offered some possible solutions, along with underscoring the need to make sure that whatever the approach is, it is consistent and communicated clearly (for those who actually bother to read the contest rules post)...
Four score and seven vapes ago our forefathers brought coolfire 4th us a new Contest, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all Contests are created equal...

"Some of the members who aren't as sociable as others"
No, no - we're sociable out there
Heck, I've been known to pop into the Women's Room on occasion. :0
Somebody has to stay on the main board to answer questions and welcome newcomers.
Maybe it's you people who aren't sociable??
No, no - we're sociable out there

Seems to me that everyone whose posted here wants it to change. Maybe I missed something.

indeed. I think the 'your' is plural, in context, however...

exactly, so why all the complaints about people giving their ideas?
It's one thing if you like the way they are now, and say so. But that doesn't mean go after the people who would like to see change, which is what started happening the last page or so.
Okay new idea, just hand me all the mods and I'll make people rock paper scissors for them!
What makes you think I missed that? I gave my input to how I think they should run.you did miss something....the reason for this thread. Read the title
My response to you was in response to your comment "I haven't heard any complaints.....other then those who DON'T want things to change." I don't see anyone here who doesn't want change.
Where are all these compalints from those who don't want things to change? That's what I think I missed, not the thread title.
Ok people.... Let's not get carried away with squabbling. Ok?
We appreciate all the input.

It is obvious.
There is only one solution.
Battle Royale!

nope - not against change - and have stated it repeatedly - and to the best of my knowledge, haven't 'gone after' anyone, but can only speak for m'self... it seems a bit high handed and elitist, however, to classify one group as 'the people who would like to see change' and the 'other group' as the ones going 'after them' when all involved have been offering suggestions or insight - just becuase someone doesn't agree with my suggestions doesn't mean they are 'against change' - it simply means they have a different opinion - and that kind of circles back to that ol' thread title - inviting input from all... i can respect all of the suggestions offered without cosigning em or agreeing with em - and having participated actively in all of the big contest threads, i have also watched the evolution of the process
i am definitely NOT against change
- i am simply not a proponent of the 'nuke the fridge' approach, as a rule of thumb - and ultimately, all i can offer are suggestions, based on my observations and experience - right, wrong or indifferent vape on, brother.
