All these people saying, "I'm going to vote for so-and-so" make me wish I never entered at all. I have to agree with Boosted on this about comments of people voting. All the people saying who they are voting for really detracts from people entering.

As for me, this will be the only month I will ever enter either of my vehicles because of this. In the past I have thought about entering my MS6, but have refrained due to people's comments about who should win and who has their vote. It's really intimidating when you think about it.

ya know, now i think about it i agree. i said early on that my vote was stuck between two people, and now there are quite a few more people who have entered in that might take my vote. im just going to sub and keep my mouth shut from now on lol
 
Sorry I'll keep my opinion to myself. See this is why happens when I follow others lol

but then again most people should have an idea of who they are
voting for anyway. What's so bad about having people voice their opinions? If your car is good enough it won't matter what people say on the forum. Just cause I say I like your car or weaksauce car or sumthaiguys car or that I'm voting for my car; shouldn't make another person take votes away from anyone else.

Don't be saying this is gonna be my only month cause of people announcing their possible votes that's just retarded to say, again in my opinion. I still can see where u r comming from. But would u really be pissed if 3 or 5 people said they r voting for
your car?

We just giving props, the VAST majority have been saying they don't know who to choose from meaning they think there r alot of good cars in this month.

Anyway hasn't it been like this almost every month?

holy crap lol, talk about shinny! and a good pic/camera helps a lot too but damn..:cool:
i'm gonna need to vote at least 5 times this month...

ya I get what he is saying though, I can't wait to enter my car again once I finish up a few things and get some actual good pics, don't really care about winning, although it's always nice if it happens, but on the entry thread, having a lot of people stating their votes before everyone has entered keeps a lot of people away, if you do have a great car then it doesn't matter, but it's nice to get a lot of people to enter like this month, which you will usually get more people entering, 1. during the summer months/spring because it's just nice out and people have their cars clean finally. 2. you'll get more people to enter I believe if they have no pressure as to who might or most likely will win, even if they know there is a good chance they may not win, it is nice to get their car out there, and with many people stating who they will vote for, it keeps those people away, and overall you loose a lot of cool cars and a lot of entries, at least that is what I personally think, there are months like this where the weather is great, and you get a huge number of cars to enter, but I think as a majority, you might get more people to enter if claiming votes before all the cars are in, doesn't happen, it just makes those few people that do claim votes seem like a majority, even though they are not, it is already seen as a "trend", granted it is usually deserved, but still should be refrained from IMO. I get where everyone is coming from, and I have some ideas of who I will vote for, but all the cars may not be in, and until I get the voting thread will the whole lineup of cars together, I choose not to say anything other than individual comments as to the quality or opinion of a car or something like that, it also gives it some suspense for when the actual voting thread comes..

just wanted to elaborate where I think subspeed is coming from, and I understand it, just don't think that other people do, everyone is different, and there are some things that deter some people from entering, and this is one of them I believe, and like I said, its awesome to see so many cars entered, and wish it was like this every month.. there are so many cars on here, it would be nice to see a larger handful of them each month.. regardless to if they are going to win or not...that's all I wanted to say..

this is why i think this thread should be limited to entry's only..no discussion at all.. once the voting thread comes out then there can be discussion.. im sure most would agree with this.
 
Sounds like MOTM 3.0 lol
if you feel so strongly about it you should ask Antonie to put up a new thread to vote on this subject? It sounds resonable =)

Actually, if people said they'd vote for me because of my posts, I would be a bit upset. It sets the playing field to be a bit biased.

It would be like if Altspace (no offense Josh!) posted his pictures in a MotM. Most of the people here know him and know his car. Yes, it is an amazing vehicle and he has beat me out on a lot of car shows (Except one!!!!) Now if he were to post and people state "Omg awesome car I'm voting for him!" or some other variant, why should anyone else want to enter? There are a few months I have wanted to enter my car myself, Boosted can attest to this, but the numerous amount of people stating who they'd vote for has turned me away. Unfortunately, I think I am the only one to actively say something about it and this will probably affect my votes.. But whatever, right? (crazy)

Props and saying nice comments are cool. There are a lot of entries this month that I totally envy compared to mine, but I keep my votes to myself until the actual vote threads. It's a respect thing to the other people who entered.


(On another note... The only reason I said I was going to enter this month was for my MS6. After this month the MS6 is getting demodded and possibly sold. I consider this the last hoorah month for my car and I wanted to go out with a bang. My plans have moved onto my Mazdaspeed Miata and you better be sure I'll be entering that here soon!)

there is no way to eliminate comments/discussion from ANY thread. it's just the nature of the forum...
 
I'd definitely agree with an entry only thread. I can see where ppl are coming from about the intimidation of opinions and early decisions. I mean hell the first two cars I saw in the thread I was like "s***, well there goes my chance" haha. Then all the "pre-votes", if you will, I almost hesitated for a quick second. But then I realized it's a forum and I don't give a damn cause that's just the nature of the beast lol. Some ppl will love my car. Some will hate it. Some will vote me, some will vote others. It is what it is.

None of it really bothers me a bit. But I can understand where they're coming from. My vote goes towards MotM v3.0 lol.

P.S. - I AM in this contest and I don't even know who I'd give my vote. There are some sick ass, dope ass, clean ass rides this month! Thanks for the heads up Steve lol.
 
Iuno about inmimidation. Cars like FD's and for example herblenny or w/e his name is tell me don't even try to enter. People sAy what they want there can be 30 posts saying I'm voting for weaksauce i wouldn't care. I have enough pride and confidence in my ride to enter.

Then again I only entered cause strick told me to lol. I didn't even know about any of the entries outside weaksauce and strick before I entered.

Anywho u can do it like ************

u email your entry and the contestAnts r reveilEd aT the start date

if people are intimidated by what people say and decide not to enter O well if they arent willing to stick their neck out a little thats their problem, i agree the forum is for discussion so we should discuss things
 
Its ok to discuss in a theme for a discussion, this is a theme for MOTM entries. Who cares about comments prior to MOTM vote?
