This is like highschool...every month is a popularity contest over picking something cool.
Not that xr8ted's car isn't nice and or deserving but damn. You should have to post a full mod list; and if you take pictures just in the driveway or a parking spot you should get them DQ'd. Make the stuff worth doing, or ROTM worth winning. Other boards you can get a discount on something or the picture of your car gets hosted on the main screeen or something to that effect.
I just feel the first time we had this it was awesome and brought out some really badass cars; now it just whoever is friends with each other. |

Completely agree! The only problem is that there isn't really much cooperation between everyone on here...is seems like a leg has to be pulled on order to get nominee's and and for votes. Just my .02 |

Second time nominated for me.  I really don't expect to win the illustrious title of SN of the Month for some time, but it's awesome to just be a part of it.
I gotta say, this SN95 group is tight knit and I'm a newb, so it was hard to just join in. I'm trying though.  |

I have seen over the last couple years that xr8d302 has put a lot of effort into his car. I agree that he could snap us some better pictures, but his ride is shaping up to be a really nice 'stang. Plus, I had his new hood on an old 'stang of mine, so he hit a soft spot with me. |

If you can't find it, here is a link to its contents: xr8d302's Garage :: My Boy
That might alleviate some of your concerns. |

Ok, well go take some nice pics then. I already said it was nice and deserving; read my 2nd sentence. I love xr8teds car and 5oh's car and the latter. I shouldnt have to go clicking through everyones garage to find out if they are 'more worthy'; the **** should be posted. This WOULD be the thread for it.
There's some damn nice cars on here; just present them well and give everyone an honest shot that's all. |

However, nice pics, you say? Let's take it back to the old school, before I started my build....I guess these would disqualify anyway
If you see a flaw in the system, perhaps you should PM the mods and suggest some solutions. Any time I've ever had a problem with the way something works, I research it, then PM the admin, instead of taking a thread off it's rails. |

I would be all over Aaron's if it weren't for the banner. PNW's meaty tire/wheel setup is cool and different, would have gotten my vote, but I'm too late. Ahh well. As for the photos, it really isn't a photo contest, it's the cars that matter. If the photos are terrible, the votes would speak for themselves, I don't see why any would get DQ'd unless they were just insanely bad, like camera phone bad.

The only problem we have had with the current system, until now, is a lack of nominees.
If moderators start making us list all of the mods done to the nominees, no one will want to nominate anyone. The moderators aren't going to want to do that either, they have lives of their own. We can't expect the nominees to do it because, some of them don't spend that much time on here and might not even realize that they were nominated. We also can't expect professional photos of everyones car either.
While the current system does have its flaws, Its about as good as its going to get. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
