IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ NEW NOMINATION REQUIREMENTS:
With the addition of so many new and pretty faces on the board, we wanted to take a moment to emphasize that nominees be individuals that add value to the AFboard through their support, assistance and sharing of knowledge with other members. There have been some questions on whether this plan is leading down the path of a "Best Body Contest". To that we say "NO" -- AFBoard MOTM is not intended for that purpose.
To emphasize the original objective of the MOTM Contest, we ask that you consider the following when casting a vote or nomination to ANY member:
1) We
DO NOT want voting to come down to whether or not somebody has posted pictures, is sexy & pretty, flirts with you, or even posts a lot on the board. So in other words, to all of you horny guys and women out there, yes that means probably all of us
....NO more "Oh, he/she got my vote because she has a nice
ass and always posts in a thong or tighty whities" replies.
2)
For nominating a member (NOT voting for... just nominating), the following MUST be stated by the nominator:
a. State the person's board name you are nominating.
b. State why they are beneficial to either you or to the AFboard.
c. Give an
example of what they did to benefit either you or the board (even a link to the a thread or post they made that stood out to you would suffice).
3) In responses to nominations and vote counts, NO NEGATIVITY IS ALLOWED! If this occurs, your vote will be taken away and you will be banned for that month of the plan. No joking or sarcastic comments will be tolerated.
Bottom line:
Put some serious thought and reflection into your nomination choice. Dare to think past generic answers regarding a nice butt, great photos, "he/she's cool", and "they make me laugh". We have an intelligent community here -- put it to good use, please.
With these few changes, we aim to keep this contest high quality. This Contest was created so we see the greatness in all members in
all forums. When casting votes and nominations, consider posts seen in the Martial Arts board, Contest board, & Injury board. We encourage women to visit the Anabolic and "male dominated boards" and the men to visit and support the Women's Board and the logs they have up. "Support" doesn't mean requesting pictures of the opposite sex either, leave that for the Pictures forum and Off-Topic.
As stated in the original rules and regulations, we will address any kinks and problems that come along with the plan.
You all make this site the best on the internet, and we thank you for your participation.
Thanks,
AF STAFF
