*VOTE* DS9 Avatar Contest 100 (SPECIAL!) *VOTE*

[Wicca who Wonta]

^ When your feelings inside make you treat people really bad to feel better about yourself, it's a real warning sign.

I've got something I sometimes talk about with my students and it goes like this: Imagine you're a pot. Every pot is made with as much water in it as the rest. But when other pots tread you badly, some of your water is taken from you. This makes you feel bad because the water is what keeps you happy. One way you can get water back is to take it from other pots. You do this by treating others badly and make them feel bad. At least you're not the only one who feels miserably then and you will then temporary feel better but the water will go foul, which will make you feel even worse in the long run. You should do something to get fresh water in your pot instead of trying to get more foul water. I've never tried to explain this in english, so I hope you understand. Also, we want to give you fresh water by being nice to you, but first you need to make the decision to be nice to us. You are the boss of you! You decide how you want to live your life.

Play nice boys as some time in your life you will kiss a girl and move out of your parents house

Ezri II, you now have a warning for trolling.

First of all, BigFoot has gone out of his way with ALOT of hard work for many months now, running this contest. He has been reliable, kind, and most reasonable.

There is absolutely NO reason for you to make snide remarks about the running of his contests, as from this moderator's POV, they were some of the most well-run contests on this entire BOARD.

In short, we were damn lucky to have him do this for us. I know that I feel that I was damn lucky to have him do this for ME.

I am grateful to Ripley for agreeing to take them over. But I can only HOPE that she does as good a job as BigFoot has done for the last couple of years.

Further, the remark about kissing girls and getting out of parent's basements? Completely uncalled for. But I'll tell you one thing - I've talked to BigFoot...and I've seen pictures of him. And let me assure you - the guy would have NO problem getting all the female attention he could handle. Including me, if I lived in Slovenia and was about 10 years younger.

Meanwhile, you, my friend, are sitting around on a Star Trek message board taking petty potshots at contests that others have worked very hard on....and that you ought to be grateful to have.

Hope this is not trolling too. What this place needs is a school shooting some place in America. Thought about finding a nice school with young children and just start shooting. But, I have bigger fish I want to give them the rewards and I hate to say it is not you.

Yes. That is exactly what this place needs - a school shooting. Very nice.

*sigh*

Warning for trolling.

Keep going like this and I'm afraid you are gonna have a very short career here at TrekBBS.

Edit to add this further post as part of the same warning:

Hope this is not trolling too. What this place needs is a school shooting some place in America. Thought about finding a nice school with young children and just start shooting. But, I have bigger fish I want to give them the rewards and I hate to say it is not you.

Because everyone knows that has never happened in America, and if it ever had, this comment would be extremely disrespectful to the families of the victims, not to mention crass to all normal human sensibilities.

Hope it is not trolling. But is someone wants to kill just to kill. Why kill only a single person when you can kill as many as you can. Think about it, if I kill just a single person or kill as many as I can I go to prison the rest of my life. But the real kicker. If someone gets killed because of a DS9 avatar contest it takes the fun out of the game.

 

[Michael]

Ooh, looks like I'm winning some of these. At least for now ...

Thanks for the votes, folks!

 

[BigFoot]

2 days left to vote. Hopefully someone will break the tie in the special category by then.

 

[BigFoot]

In case there's a tie in the special category, I'll use the number of votes for the person's second avatar as a tie-breaker.

Sounds fair to me.

P.S.: Ahem, could someone PLEASE delete Ezri II's avatars from the OP? It looks like they got swapped. I'm not sure though if you're still able to edit the first post, BigFoot. Maybe we will have to contact PKTrekGirl ...

 

[BigFoot]

^ Unfortunately I can't edit the original post.

Anyway, the voting is over. NCC-1701 won the Episode, Theme and Random Theme contests. There was a tie in Special category contest between NCC-1701 and myself. Due to the fact that my second avatar got more votes I won that contest.

Congrats to NCC-1701 and thanks for participating guys! Also thanks for all the votes.

I'll post the list of previous contests in the next post and then I'm handing the contest over to Wicca who Wonta. Like I said in the original post, I know you guys will be in good case.

A little bit of trivia for those who don't know, Wicca who Wonta already ran the contest for quite a while before I took over.

Congrats to NCC-1701 and BigFoot.

Looking forward to the next one.

BigFoot won the special category. Congrats to the both of you!

So NCC-1701, what do you choose as episode and themes for the respective categories for next contest?

 

[Michael]

Cool, I won! Thanks for all the votes, guys. And congrats to BigFoot!

Hm, how about Equilibrium for episode, Music for the DS9 related theme and Bigfoot for random theme?

 

[Michael]

Reason: Edited out replaced images of banned douchebag poster.

Thanks.

 

[PKTrekGirl]

^ Liked that little bit of commentary, eh?

That'll teach 'em to fuck around with BigFoot's contests on MY watch.

 

[Nerys Ghemor]

That'll teach 'em to fuck around with BigFoot's contests on MY watch.

Mwaaahahahaha! Now if we could just reassign all the votes for her stuff to other people...

 

[BigFoot]

Reason: Edited out tasteless replacement images posted by banned douchebag poster.

Hm, how about Equilibrium for episode, Music for the DS9 related theme and Bigfoot for random theme?

"Thirded" Owned!!
I didn't see the altered pictures, so also, good catch.

 

[Michael]

I didn't see the altered pictures, so also, good catch.

Believe me, you're lucky to not have seen them.

 

[Wicca who Wonta]

^ Agreed! I wish I hadn't looked just before I had to go to sleep last night. Ezri II could probably benefit from therapy.

 

[Marie1]

Poor you guys!!
