Ok guys, its my turn.
Sorry for little off topic, but cause I am mentioned few times here and in chat, I have to explain something once for all.

- MasterHaosis of course, one of the most active people here on the Hive... I believe there isn't a user to who MasterHaosis hasn't ''smiled'' (
)
(I would have added many other people to this list Riotz. Many other of these "non prestigious members"
Like MasterHaosis for example.)
Thank you all who mentioned me few times here and there, and who would most likely voted for me. I am honored.
But I feel that I need to explain you few things.
You know, my dear friends, few years ago, we had (actually someone created) unofficial poll user of the year 2008, just to see people's conditions, global atmoshpehe who will/could vote for who.
That was forbidden by then because of obvious fighting and dramas by fanboys and local gangs, and instead of closing such thread (as Ralle personally ordered long time ago), some of moderators who was charge then keep thread alive just to see if someone of them clan (moderators had their clans buck then) would win. When they saw that I am wining (with double more votes than guy with second place) they not just closed a poll, but deleted entire thread with poll, making fatal mistake and cause lot of further dramas around. That cause lot of punishments especially Ralle punished those moderators who were involved in letting that poll alive, and deleting when they saw that I won.
So here, I scrambled other names which I won (no names please)
So you see, I had double more votes than anyone.
And just next minute, thread was gone
If I won with double more votes in unnofical poll, then its 100% certain that I would win in offical pool. And instead of that it were fights, moderator abusing/demoting and such, caused rank user of the year manually to be added without any further poll.
What is the most important, I WAS NOT ACTIVE THAT MONTH IN HIVE! I AM NOMINATED WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE, WITHOUT MY APPROVAL.
If I were asked, for sure I would not allow anyone to put my name in any poll in that times. And its not first poll I won that year which got deleted.
But that poll caused me to decide to tell publicly
THAT NOBODY HAS RIGHT TO PUT MY NAME IN ANY NOMINATION, ANY POLL IN THIS SITE FOR NEXT FEW YEARS UNTIL I ALLOW.
Yes, thats why you never after 2008 saw me in any poll. Previous year, and year before and and before, I was always nominated by people (and thank you for that) but I sent Pms to charge people (or told them in chat) to remove me from any list. Except this time. I did not now sent any PM to any moderator because I knew that I am not going to be nominated in list by their decisions. But still even if I were nominated I would send them PM to remove me from list for following reason:
Guys, in 2012 year i wasnot active in site. I werenot active about twice at three months with is overall six months!
And you want to nominate me who do not deserve to be nominated in therms that I did not create much resources, I did not help much people around, I were not enough active, which would not be fair to other people who are already in list. And after knowing all of that some of you yet again decide to nimated me, and I am sure many of you would vote for me. Thanks you so much because of that. But you will do mostly because of my activity in chat and because I am friend with (almost) anyone, some of you because I helped out or spread some ideas of you (meele map makers fan). But its still not enough overall that my name should be included even in this poll.
You see, you have Vengeancekael who is good, rpvoed himself this year, you have I3lackDeath who is also active lot and doing his job very well, you have Magtheridon96 which is awesome guy, helpful lot, good moderator, you have sonofjay which I do not have any more words to him rather than words of praise for this nice mannered guy. You have -Kobas- (his name is shorten word of grill) who was helpful lot and did awesome job in map section, and at last Orcnet, new fresh blood in moderator Lobby whose is now good as moderator aswell being good as user!
So puting my name beneath them who were many times better than me this year (and even if I magically win) would be fail for this site and community.
As I would won back long time ago, and felt bad, ashamed because back then bunch of people could ruin will of majority, I also would not like to see unjustice towards those few guys whose are already in poll.
You see, you have people here who nominated themselves, and yet again you have me only one in entire site whose wrote why I should not be nominated at first place and yet given chance to win.
Words of wise.
So please, I do not want problems, you do not want problems, we all do not want to ruin this thread however voting and nominating system is not fair. But we have chance to discuss this in another thread, not to ruin this one and to create problems to our moderators and to administrators especially ralle who did not deserved to watch this.
So, please, be smart now, and if you want to vote, then vote for one of those few people in list, if you do not want to vote, then do not, but do not put names of people whose are not in list.
I do not want to see ,,I vote for MasterHaosis" and later to see neg reps for that posts or warning or any kind of punishment. You cannot fix that now, my name will not appear or poll.
But rather I offer if you want to discuss about what is wrong with these polls, then create new thread in Site discussion and link me to it so we all can wrote there what I thin that is wrong and how can we improve it. I am also not personally satisfied with user of year selection system overall but lets talk in other thread.
