Explanation please, or link or whatever.

You want someone to link to 4chan? Is that safe?

 

[Lord_Duke]

que? I voted for the suck option cause they just do regardless of what happened

 

[Sassafrass]

Who, what, where, when?

All these questions must be answered before I can comment.

 

[Disaster Button]

Even with that link I still don't.. really.. understand..

Of course it is. People exaggerate 4chan.

Also, the OP says that 4chan users are voting for something, therefore it's not actually ON 4chan.

 

[Acristoff2]

I didn't hear nuthin on 4chan.

Your link is to a modeling contest to be the face of some E.L.F. product with various other prizes. I didn't see anything about any girl or anyone being cruel to a contestant there. Could you elaborate just a little bit more for those of us who are still clueless?

4chan, ebaums, and many other chan sites have banded together to vote some girl named portia allen to the top spot and its causing some major annoyance to other contestants

 

[UltraParanoia]

Who cares?

 

[Ben7]

Its hilarious.

 

[DazZ.]

I hope she wins, and unless they start exploiting the voting with scripts I don't see why she shouldn't win when she is voted.

They shouldn't need scripts either, I doubt the site gets much traffic to counter it, should be steamrolled by "legitimate" votes. (Legit meaning not the same person 500 times)

Okay after you know actually spending two minutes to figure out what the hell you're talking about I'll summerize for people like the OP should have.

This hot or not /modeling or whatever type website is having a contest to see who has the best eyes, lips, and face. (ELF)

Many people left very mean remarks on one contestant's page because she is obese. (But still has pretty eyes) So anon and ebaum are making sure she gets first place.

I am unclear is there is a prize or something.

Hmmm... I keep trying to think that this is a nice thing to do but then again it's probably making fun of her anyway. So is this nice or not?

 

[JimmerDunda]

I for one find this funny.

Also people need to get over their paranoia of 4chan. The only thing wrong with 4chan is it has a shitty section called /b/.
