Oi, everyone! It's me, Ocean, and I'm back for another Blog post! Today's topic is on something I noticed in the Life of Steve Blog Contest just the other day.
Today's topic: Should Staff be allowed in PMC Contests?
Now, I know this may cause true controversy, but there was a Forum Moderator that entered in that Contest, and is now in the Finalists. I won't put said Staff Members' name in here, as much as I would love to, but they know who they are and I'm not going to make them look bad by pointing their name out.
One of the issues I have with that Staff Member entering is that they were given more Diamonds than other contestants, just because they're Staff. I personally think that Staff shouldn't be able to enter into Contests such as this one, because they're already popular and will recieve more votes than everyone else. They have much better of a chance of winning, and I'm sure the Staff Member who entered knew that.
The second problem I have with it is that it makes it very unfair for the rest of the contestants. No one but that Staff Member wins, purely because everyone votes for them. Myself included, there were lots of people who entered that practically nobody gave a Diamond to, with only 2-3 Diamonds given to us. Meanwhile, that Staff Member got about 96 Diamonds, and while their entry was very good, I felt it was very unfair for everyone else. I understand that some people did it out of respect, but I find it outrageous that they got that many for their entry.
The third and final problem I have is that the Staff Memeber pretty much cheated. While they did write a story and enter it in, they were already well-know and everyone liked them, so of course they would be getting more votes! In my opinion, that's cheating in and of itself! What about the other stories that got lots of views, but only 2 people gave a Diamond to them? Are they just bad at writing, and they should just give up because Staff will always win those contests? It makes the rest of the community look bad, in my opinion, because it makes the rest of us story writers look like we can't write a story very well.
Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed reading. If you did, I'd appreciate it if you gave this post a Diamond, or heck, even a Favourite, since it really helps me out as a Blogger. If you'd like more Blogs like this one, hit that nice, shiny Subscribe button, mkay? :D
And as always,
Peace, love, and tridents!
