i tend to agree with micheleh on this one. billyj...even if you aren't a "r'osity schill", it isn't right to come in here, telling folks who've been here for a long, long time that we should just accept whatever is handed down by the staff, even if it is blatantly unfair. from what i've been seeing the past few months, more and more of this place is "rigged", from the hot-20, to the emoticon contest, and, it's even been said the magazine covers. we have no choice but to accept it. it's a done deal. however, you or nobody else has the right to tell anyone else that we should "cheerfully" accept it. fair is fair. and, if some of us are disgusted over some of the antics that go on behind the scenes, in this place....so frickin' what? who made you the god of what the rest of us have to like? if you don't like threads like this...don't read 'em. i skip alot of threads that aren't of interest to me. my holiday was very nice, thank you. but, now, it is basically over.
