    TOTM turns into a popularity contest many times and does not reflect the build quality of those involved. Many times the winner is just the one that recruited the most votes by campaigning on many sites trying to get people to come vote for their vehicle.

    Thats why most sites, not all, have rules about that. I personally cant stand to see people on other sites campaigning for votes..IMO the TOTm winners need to be decided by the "active members" of the site in question.

    i think if we were to have a TOTM the voting should be done by administrators only. that way it would get rid of a lot of drama from campaigning and trying to get people to vote for you

    Suspension section would be very helpful for us poor people who want to try and do some stuff ourselves.
