You can't get voters using an archaic system. I don't understand why people don't understand this. Without simplicity a site will die. Period. Fact.firefighter link wrote: The LPIN Awards are more honorary and significant being voted upon by impartial brothel clients only. It would be inappropriate and a conflict of interest for brothel personnel to vote on their own awards. There were 121 Official LPIN 2018 Awards Registered Voters when registration ended on 12/31/18, and this list of verified voters and informed patrons overshadows 1,000 anonymous people who have never visited a brothel.
LPIN Awards accepts donations, but haven’t solicited the services of a professional fund raiser such as GoFundMe yet. The LPIN 2017 Awards budget was $943 including Crystal Art trophies, certificate frames, and web hosting. In addition, there was a $300 cost for bond paper certificates, banquet programs, extra certificate frames, printer ink and special awards. LPIN Awards needs committee members to administrate and fund future contests. Two of the six committee members are over seventy years old and two more are very close behind, so younger committee members are needed to continue the contests. I hope to serve on the committee for two more years. I'll be seventy-three years old then, and I plan to resign.
LPIN Awards Voter Registration has been simplified since voter verification was implemented in 2015, and a reliable ballot casting and vote counting system has been retained for the contests. The LPIN Awards committee is proficient in the administration and use of the Simple Machine Forum and it adequately serves the purpose, so it will be retained for the time being.
The LPIN Awards annual meeting is traditionally held at IB and Sheri’s Picnic, but people may contact the committee with questions and suggestions throughout the year. Rachel Varga's suggestion of a Rookie of the Year award is a good idea. However, the rules are not discussed at the banquet due to time constraints and since this special event is reserved to honor and present certificates and awards to LPIN Awards finalists and winners.
So basically nothing changes. I'm done with this subject. It's a complete waste of time. I'm not even reading anymore of this thread. Smh
