My wife wouldn't vote for my bikes anyway  :-[

I've read all of this lot, and tbh, I don't really care. It's all a bit of fun and I'm not going to get the hump if my entry gets 0 votes or 10million. I like my bikes and that's what the hobby is all about to me. It has nothing to do with winning BOTM whatsoever.

The forum is open for anybody and everybody to join and with that, they get the right to vote however they please. I don't think anybody can say they don't have a bit of bias if their good mates put in an entry. I didn't realize that if you are a forum member your family, children, close friends etc.... are automatically barred.

It's a hobby ffs, it's not like somebody is fixing the National Lottery.

Now can somebody post a build thread please?

Personally most of the bikes that have won BOTY was the best of show so I don't know what the problem is..
Or subscription members can only vote..

it would be best, (not fair on mods etc) if anyone with any behind the scenes connections did not enter the BOTM/BOTY.  Same as MK show n shine builds being built and judged by judges.  Its a little unethical and will always be open to scepticism.

I don't post on here often and its a shame that this has caused a stain on RAD that I imagine may linger for sometime.

maybe an option to show who voted as well as results would offer some transparency

i'll fook off back under my rock now  :-X

good idea and one i suggested in a discussion this morning  :daumenhoch:
i used to post a fair bit on the forum but since becoming a moderator i see my role as exactly that. keeping a close eye on what goes on and getting involved only when I feel that some moderation is required. this includes back of house areas i will add, you wont catch me snooping around like a sneaky fooker
i think that if the site does move forward then the role of staff could mean non entry into boty/botm. MK is seperate as judges are not necessarily staff etc
just my thoughts
oh and if there is a secret room then I aint found it and I work here
