Rulechanges MoTM

[DGFone]

I personally would consider the "World Issues" a very bad place to get MotM qualifications, because that is just begging for trolling. After all, if you agree with the majority, congratulations! Free MotM votes! If you don't agree with the majority... meh, good luck. If people would decide MotM based on what they post in that section, MotM might as well be renamed to "who do most people agree with the most?"

Doesn't actually contribute much to the forums themselves.

Lol true enough I suppose.

What I would love to see is to have a member who contributes nearly only or a vast majority of their posts to the TLK sections. Or better yet, they can even have only a portion or their posts be TLK related, but each one being thoughtful and provoking loads of discussion.

I believe this was what MotM was first created for: you don't have to be a great author, a fanartist, or a graphic designer, but if you love The Lion King, and you show it bye how you post in the Lion King sections, then you will be able to be rewarded for that by winning MotM. These days if you do that, you might get a nomination or two, but I have yet to see a member actually go all the way and win by being a great contributor to the TLK sections.

Just remember you nominated me for doing what you've said here, and yet I've posted about 30 things all up in the TLK sections. Are you a hypocrite, or were you just nominating me because you could?

[DGFone]

You also expressed interest in the TLK Flight Demo team. It's not TLK related directly, but for me, it still counts.

[OuRaion]

Ah, but that happened after the nominations were over.
So you can't count my interest in your thing as a reason.

[DGFone]

I don't fully remember what made me want to nominate you, but I did. What I can tell for certain is that it wasn't because you sent me a bunch of Linux help PMs (also after the nominations). Might have been the fact that you're active in the writing contest. If you had to make a bet about why I nominated you, go with that.

[OuRaion]

Well thanks for clearing that up for me.

And, you know the part where you said something about being nominated for being active in the TLK sections? You do realise that people wanting to win and them seeing this will make the TLk part more active then the lounge. But then again, that may be a good thing.

[Azdgari]

Why is someone posting in TLK forums more important than being helpful or kind?

[DGFone]

That's because as far as I can tell, everyone are helpful and kind, but in the end, MotM keeps going to the same gang of people. MLK is a great place, and if being helpful and kind lets you win MotM, I simply can't see a logical reason how some people can get more than one award while others never get it at all.

So in order to make it more fair when I nominate, I look at other factors as well.
