Votes Needed for The Escapist - Finalist for "Best Online Magazine"
- Thread starter Kuliani
- Start date
I am sooo going to open a can of poison-pen whoopass on Mashable when this is all over. "Vote every day for a whole month to turn Twitter into an endless torrent of spam! Yay!"
A week of voting would have been plenty.
A week of voting would have been plenty.
I would vote, 'cause I love this place but I REFUSE to get either an Facebook or Twitter account, so I can't.
I would vote but I am having trouble it shows the categories and I am logged in but there is no vote or okay button...I can only select best online magazine and escapist but go no further, any help would be appreciated so we can win this (I want my votes to count... that is if I can vote)
Why must I have a Facebook/Twitter? Those sites are awful and I refuse to associate myself with them, so now I can't vote. I believe it was Winston Churchill who said, "That is totally retarded!"

God, really? It's not like you actually have to use the damned thing. You don't have to tell anyone about it either. I hate people that use those sites more than any other site and think it's the ultimate in social interaction, but people that can't join one because of their "principals" are worse, IMO.wouldyoukindly99 said:
And, just so you know, you can close the account when this is all done.
Really for me its more on principle then any thing else. I just don't like those types of sites. Hell, I even waited till five month ago to get MSN and the only reason I did was because I wouldn't see any of my friends after I went to college.TheTygerfire said:
I still don't get what principle keeps you from joining a site you never have to use (past this of course) or tell anyone you're that you're a member.IrishBerserker said:
Yeah, some of these sites are stupid, and the people that are one these sites don't help. But do I feel like less of a person for the shear fact a Twitter account in my name exists? Of course not. I'm not so wrapped up in myself that I care about "OMG I might be called stupid for having one!", especially since the only people that I talk to on them are people that a) I already know and b) are next to impossible for me to see in person. Plus, I'm really only using it for this as of now.
Well actually all the reasons are principle, the fact that each are just a fad/trend (god, I hate those words) and a rather stupid (and paranoid) conspiracy theory, that I'd rather not explain.TheTygerfire said:
Me too. I would love to vote for The Escapist, but i just can't get myself to make a Twitter/Facebook account....Bob_Bobbington said:
