I don't - wouldn't waste my money lining Cowell's already bulging wallet.

Who will admit to actually spending their money on voting?

I vote in the final if theres someone still there who I really like.

I don't really see the point in voting...as my vote wouldnt make a difference. And yes, I still moan if one of my favorites leaves...but I dont care how hypocritical that makes me sound :p

Nah, I don't see it as hypocritical at all. The shows would still exist without viewer interaction, money is made aplenty without the public lining more purses - I dont actually believe the votes tbh. After all - look at the amount of times these types of shows have been proven to be rigged as far as phone votes/calls are concerned.

Nah, only once when I voted for Andy Abraham, apart from that I never do. I've never voted on Big Brother either.

No my one or two votes will not make the slighest difference when over 12 million people watch.

i used to vote, when you could vote by text

I've only voted a couple of times in the few years I've actively watched the X Factor - for acts that I've truly supported. I don't agree with the logic that you can't be annoyed by a result if you didn't vote - if anything you would be more annoyed if you voted and the act you voted for got eliminated - which is what happened to me the two times I bothered to vote pahaha. You can still be outraged at the result IMO, because a shock result is a shock result.

I do, a lot, because I panic that my favourite act will go. I try to stay disconnected from it, like just see it as light entertainment, but it never works, I always get too involved :|

If I was supporting Matt/Rebecca/1D/Cher I probably wouldn't bother, but as it is, I support Aiden and he needs the votes.

I only vote if I'm really passionate about someone.

I voted for Nadia to win Big Brother, and Joe to win X Factor.

Being in Ireland we're only just allowed vote again this year, I haven't done so, so far, I may do in the final if one of my favourites is still in.

I'm afraid to say that my definition of panic is accidentally sucking too hard on a boiled sweet, it slipping half way down my throat, gets stuck and cuts off my air supply. That's not a whole lot of fun!

Fans can't afford to be complacent, you never know how the vote could be going and your favourite is at risk, however it's easy to moan about it and about certain acts getting through after if they've been voted out and you didn't vote:(.

I remember everyone going crazy when Laura White was voted out (I was pleased) and what has she done since then?:joker:.

Kaaarenn!
