This is MOD of the month, not MEMBER of the month contest.

And based on membership votes:

My vote went for VSa - Advanced Forum Statistics (AJAX). It saved me a lot of time because I was just about to start working on a such a mod for my own forum when I saw it. Good work btw.

Chatbox hands down!
So to ensure "fame" on vborg,
all i have to do is release 15 mods
and request in the thread to get nominated
surely there are not enough competitors
so at least a few will be in.

ergo, doubling the changes of winning?

yes - sounds quite unfair.

It doesn't have anything to do with the quality of the mod. They might be very good, or very bad. But quantity here wins. It's that simple. If not one, then the other .. or perhaps the other.

Especially if what you say, they are excellent job done well, .. you even increase guaranteed winning on one of them.

It's nothing personal against the mod author, I just think it should be a mod from one author, from 5 nominated ones. So everybody has a fair run at it.

So yes, I play unfair too, and vote for the underdog, without even looking at the mod.

I don't know what all the fuss is about

I mean, hey everyone wants fairness, hope and change :erm:

GM gets a bailout then files chapter 11

AIG gets a bailout then gives all the Execs bonus's

So here there is no bonus's no bailout, just an unfair advantage with no real sets of criteria

Seems Ok to me

This just talks about you.

Feel free to ask Staff to remove all of my products from this poll, and even from vB.org if it will make you happy.

I've never released any of my add-on to see it in such contests, or 'ensure fame'. I'm doing it because I like to share my stuff with other people.

Please be kind to release your own 15 mods so we can enjoy your work too. Thanks in advance.

I am not personally addressing you with the 'first' post I made, but the web site staff. I think it's unfair that someone can be in a award poll multiple times, it seems unfair to the underdog. Then someone comments on it, and I reply back with my explanation. The mods from multiple coder could have been anything, it has nothing to do with you.

So he has 3 mods nominated this month. At least 2 will lose. No reason to incentivise people to release LESS mods. Furthermore having all 5 mods from one person does not increase any of the mods chance of winning at all.

Who wants a mod of the month contest that ignores actual user nominations in favour of those that were NOT nominated to make sure the "underdog" (read: less nominated) is given a chance? They want a chance, build a better mod.

Whats next, people can only buy 1 lottery ticket a week?
