Just wanted to post some words about what the Villun of the Month is, and why we have it. Mostly, want to talk about some things that are detrimental.
The main reason we do the monthly award, is to recognize outstanding villuns. It is not a popularity contest. Winning the VOTM doesn't give you any special perks, or privileges. It's a simple thank you to everyone who puts the time and work in to make this place a cut above the standard gaming sites. That's why I post all the nominations, and not just the winner.
Which brings me to the main point.
Please, PLEASE do not advertise, lobby for a certain individual or guild, or influence people's votes in any way. This is meant to be a personal choice, up to the voter to decide who made the best impression on him/her personally over the last four weeks. Padding the votes for your own agenda really waters down the clout of the award and basically makes a joke of the whole thing.
Please make your vote with a clear comment on why you think the person should be the Player of the Month. Nominations not adhering to these guidelines may be edited, rejected or downgraded to Honorable Mention not counting as an official nomination. You will be offered an opportunity to amend your vote before any action is taken.
Please follow these guidelines and keep the Villun of the Month award a meaningful one.
Thank you.
