Ads bring in people who don’t usually play the thing, and draw them to vote for one submission, this is almost like klan voting or buying votes.
If we allow this to happen then who ever has the most bp for ads has the win. In a democracy who ever controls the media controls the will of the people.
I mean this nChan thing is double hurt, it brings in the people from ED (Not that bad seeing as I am one), who most often got there from… 4Chan. This heavily manipulates the vote.
We ban klan based voting, ban this and refund the BP. |

Wow I would’ve thought doing this would certainly backfire. But it doesn’t. What’s going on people? |

Raepdog Posted: Hmm, that’s an excellent point, in a way that is ballot stuffing. I don’t have to point out though that 4chan does not always behave like it is told. It could hurt the add maker as easily as it could help them.

Really, there’s tons of ads for friends, contests, flamebate boosts etc, why not this? No one’s being forced to vote for it. |

As I said it reaches out to new confused players. It turns it into buying thewin. |

The ad as it stands won’t really work on any new confused players, as they’d have to search the page really hard to find the particular item being referenced, hence keeping them more confused. MC Banhammer edited this message on 11/20/2008 5:46PM |

True but I think the idea of it is slimey. I mean we have so many ones for contests, for peens.. whats next? “Attack PLAYER NAME in Domination!”. Some things should be left sacred. Forumbuildr has enough problems as is, this could really mess things up. |
