I understand your frustration and the frustration of others. I know that the two entries that won were, thematically, pedestrian, but I don’t agree that the writing behind it was.

If I am able, I play to either win or amuse myself. In order to do that, I take a look at the people voting in this democracy. So far, my strategy has done pretty well, as has the style of writing.

I don’t understand why I’m singled out, when almost every single other ForumBuildr forum is equally uninspired and often poorly written. Half are based on memes, more are pop culture, etc. This is a game for memes and pop culture. What do you expect?

If you do not like the results of a democracy, either adjust your expectations or move to one whose voters better result in that which you desire. Laying blame and hating the population, in my experience, is an exercise in either futility or selfishness, or both.

As such, I understand that the same reasons that have led my forums to win are the same reasons I’m here being yelled at by angry sorts who take things very, very seriously. I understand it’s pointless to complain or try to argue my perspective. So, I won’t bother.

It’s just not much of a deal at all to me. I’ve said my piece, and now I’m moving on.
