The thing is, is if your going to have stuff like Most Loved and vote on it and don't mind taking part, then the same courtesy should be shown towards The Razzies.

Take this in advance

Nobody's even said they're opting out yet and anyway I don't see why it's such a major disaster if one or two people do

Do you ever wish you hadn't said anything?....

Lucas, with due respect, that's very rude what you said.

Plus last year things went way way too far and got too personal, and I don't mean in regard to myself either :pipe:

That's my opinion, its how I feel, and to say its not worth holding because an opt out option may be put in place just indicates to me that it is in fact all about being able to have a go at those who are the most sensitive and will get upset.

My god..I take loads of stick from the Turtle, Marc and a few others, so its not that I can't take banter fgs. Here's an idea, Let's do it, but not anonymously. Oh no, people won't do it then though will they?

My offence comes from the fact that this is being discussed behind my back, and that moderators are announcing the rules of my game without consulting me first

As Jarrod quite rightly pointed out, it's a matter of respect

That said, I am of the opinion that there shouldn't be an opt-out list, for the following reasons (which I messaged to James earlier):

I can't speak for all but for me it's just a laugh and should not be taken seriously.

Also if your gonna accept your positives then you should also accept your negatives being pointed out imo, and that's not just aimed at you *Kate*.

And with this opt-out thing it starts a chain. Once one does it a few start doing it.

Quick question


Can we discuss who we nominated in here, or is going to be deemed "baiting"?

Don't worry, I think this debate would have happened eventually :laugh:

:worship:

Just wanted to point out, the mods weren't discussing it.

I was just giving my verdict on something anyway...

I had my fair of **** in the Razzies and laughed it off, it's not like what's said on here is going to make you want to jump off a tall building, just laugh at it, it'll make the forum lively for a couple of days and then we move on..

We know Josy don't worry lol.

Hang on, Most Loved noms are all posted on the forum aren't they?

So why are these anonymous but those other aren't?

Members votes still stay anonymous I think.

:laugh:
Quite a common feeling on this forum.

Yeah I didn't realise it was happening either for what it's worth, I don't think it's that big a deal though, if it is all light hearted then no real need to be stringent in insisting everyone has to take part IMO, and I know the vast majority just have a laugh with it but there normally arguments too, the threads don't get locked for no reason and just off the top of my head I know that one member ended up getting a month ban during it last year

Anyway I have no real strong feelings either way, but I really can't see any more than one or two opting out in any case

No they're not, some people just choose to reveal their votes at the end

Ah right, I get it.

Exactly Marsh, exactly.

Also Mock, I do accept my negatives, I take the Piss out of myself on here and accept it in good spirits from others WHEN its meant in good spirits. However anonymous attacks aren't acceptable. Why should it be anonymous. If i vote/voted on this I would be more than happy to put my name to everything I said.

:shrug:

For the record, I won't opt out, but I will complain if it goes too far and I don't really care what anyone thinks about that. Keep it light hearted. There will be no problem.

Oh I agree it should stay light hearted, but anyone that causes trouble should banned for the night imo.

What exactly happened last year? Were there cruel awards or something?

Where's the list of winners?

Cheers matt, you're cool :)
So are you going to drop the anonymity?

Just to throw my opinion in (again). I don't mind the awards going ahead, nor will I opt out, I'm not a complete fun sponge. But if people don't want to be included they shouldn't have to be.
