@zardon-
I guess i deserve to know the reason(s) for me being banned from the competition

I have voted only once and the only "crime" i am guilty of is asking other people to vote for me
I haven't used multiple I.P's or proxies

So i request the reasons

As far as i can see,i was getting too many votes from "guests" and u first "rebalanced" it(basically ripped off 70 votes from next to my name and redistributed it among the others)
Now i'm banned

If the reason for me being banned is "asking other people to vote for me" then i have no complaints/arguments

If not i want the reason(s),its only fair IMO

Sure, you have had 291 votes coming from threads like this Amaranth Games - plz vote !!!! [Forum - Spam Haven]

this is not fair to the other people on the list especially the 4 or 5 who have only had votes from Driver Heaven readers, which is the whole point in the first place.

Actually you aren't banned from DH, you are only banned from this competition for the reasons ive explained. I posted a message a day ago explaining to everyone that this was not tolerated and you or your family totally ignored it, and another 60 votes appeared overnight, again from the same external places. Do you think it is fair that the other entrants who have had votes from Driver Heaven members and people in our community should lose out on the chance to win this because you, or your sister has decided to get people from game forums to vote for you? Incidentally the 70 votes you originally lost were not redistributed, they were removed, a warning was given and you were given another chance.

how many chances or warnings do i need to give before people actually listen to me?

Well im glad you have no complaints, but right now you are almost on a total site ban so I suggest that you DON'T complain.

hackerx. post removed. If I see another word from you about this competition you are getting a permanent ban. My patience is gone.

Edit: ok, well I guess you paid as much attention to these warnings as the others. banned.

It's a shame these competitions get abused the way they are. I don't mind there are people signing up to participate in a competition, the potential regular visitors will go up and that only benefits the driverheaven community. But there are alot of people out the who think they are getting ripped off when they aren't winning or people who think it's neccesary to ask whole other forums to vote for you (not naming anyone).

Wouldn't it have been a good idea to make voting only possible to registered users? I doubt many people would go through that hassle only to place a vote.

on-topic:
It's gonna be a close call, i see swimtech has overtaken ..andrew. May the best entry win

Perhaps. however there is an active DH community here who arent registered, I wanted to give our forum shy viewers a chance to vote. It has however been abused, but its nothing we can't handle as you have seen.

That's very true. There are a lot of people who come to various forums to read posts, but not make very many themselves. I have a very hard time keeping up with (let me count my bookmarked forums) 12 different forums. That's right twelve. But, I do try to contribute when ever I can.
