drama is for chumps and high school...no one wants to be a chump and most of us are no longer in high school.......:bang:
Sadly though, some act like they still haven't gotten out of pre-school. Ha ha ha!

I agree 100 percent. I just wish a lot of other adults would think the same way.
Hello ladies. I see a new OCSM contest has started. I just wanted to remind everyone that these contests are supposed to be about FUN and INTERACTION. When you take to spamming about it on Twitter, FaceBook and other places, you ruin the contest. It is for the members of FREEONES. So please no drama and follow the rules. Thanks.
:clap:
Let's hope there are indeed not to much drama queens.
It should come as no surprise that the OOTM contest has just begun, and the Twitter, Facebook, and FreeOnes shilling for votes has already begun.....by atleast one "person" anyway. It's not surprising as I said, but it's really sad nonetheless. What's even sadder is the fact that, due to the limited participation in the contests, it's not that hard to do things to essentially rig the outcome through shilling.....and it's rather successful. The whole validating one's existence through begging people to vote for you, and taking into account the type of person that would work on is kind of pathetic when you get right down to it.
Now I can't speak for everyone, and how they feel about me and what I've done to contribute to the board in the nearly 1 year that I've been here, but I've been giving it some thought, and if the OOTM this month plays out the way I suspect it will.....I've decided to go on a prolonged vacation from the board........and when & if I do return, I'll never have anything to do with any of the voting contests on here ever again (including Miss FreeOnes).....aside from OOTW as it has set rules that prevent people from rigging the outcome through the pathetic act of begging for votes. I won't deny that I want to see Nikki Nova win OOTM this month.....but if she doesn't, I'd rather see someone who is truly worthy based on their participation, time on the board, and the fact that they didn't have to stoop so low to beg for votes from.....well I won't even go there (think pathetic losers).....rather than see someone win based upon their ability to shill for votes.
Granted, with a few exceptions, the regulars (members that is) on here are pretty cool.......it's the losers who pop in to vote in the contests because some pathetically desperate person shilled for their vote, and then they pop right back out again that ruin it for me.....and many others as well. Granted, the regulars can't rule & have free run per se.......but if people like me, and others get driven away by people who have no intentions of sticking around......I'd be interested in seeing what the board looks like afterwards.
Am I fed up? You bet! :rant:

Sweet Jebus, Jon.
I will never understand why some members take these contests so damn seriously. It's not like you're in the running for a prize here. I can tolerate most of your blustering and over the top affection for one particular female, but your behavior in this thread and the contest thread is very disconcerting. You need to take step a back.
Remember, this is an internet popularity contest. There's no reason to be this worked up over it. Jane has a right to be concerned, but she's actually in the contest. What's your angle?
This 'shilling' as you put it, was done by lots of OCSM's in the last miss freeones contest. I think you've got a nerve. It's double standards, when the same type of thing is being committed by some of your own clan, elsewhere.
You're already trying to play leader in the contest thread. The contest is not just for you and your clique cronies, it's for everyone on the board and it's supposed to be fun, not serious. I'm all for regular OCSM's getting their dues, but not because of a forum clique rule.
You're not making new OCSM's very welcome with your 'negativity' towards them are you, eh Mr. Positive.
Just Sayin'
Finally, I'm sorry if I offended anyone with the "pathetic loser" comment that I made to describe people who allow themselves to be manipulated. I just have my opinions of things in general......and I was wrong for sharing them in such a public manner.....as this is not the venue for sharing that point of view. It would be kind of like going to a Klan meeting and telling them that they were all a bunch of racists and how I dislike racists. So if I offended anyone with that comment.....sorry.
Now, off to take another anti-anxiety pill. Ha ha ha! SERIOUSLY!
God forbid those twittering OCSMs bring over some of their fans who never knew about FreeOnes and they actually become active here because their favorite girl is active here...
Man, that would suck ass big time.
Just sayin...
