Voting is such an important part of being on letsbeef. If people didn't vote, this site would be almost pointless. It is to the bane of many people here when their battles get slept on. So we should all be encouraged to vote on each other's battles. However, when our votes are meaningless, then what's the point?
With that being said, there will come a time when EVERYONE on this site will differ from you in opinion about who should win a particular battle. I don't think their vote should have any less merit simply because it differs from your own preference. I understand why we have voting power. If someone is a hate/buddy voter, then their vp should be lowered. But it shouldn't be lowered just for having a different fucking opinion.
Honestly, I've voted on a few battles where the person I voted for ends up with more total votes but loses due to vp (and these are sometimes even without mod votes). This is what makes me suspect that my vp has been lowered. And if its been lowered, I know you guys don't disclose this, but I feel like I should know why because I've ALWAYS voted fair. I think this site should SERIOUSLY re-consider how it delegates vp, because if voting doesn't matter, then what's the point?

Like I said. You don't have to apply if you don't want too. I seen people were airing concerns over voting so I gave them and yourself a chance to do something about it. The rest is on you guy's, we'll see how much the people really care enough to make a difference and put their knecks on the line. so to speak. If you want me to look into your application. leave it there. If not, and you don't trust me to make the right decision please go to your post and remove the links.
