Why? - SOS Awards

~~goldilockz~~ · 08-01-2007, 09:23 AM

Why are people taking this SOS Awards thing so seriously?

Seriously enough to have extra polls because people were nominated more than once?

Seriously enough to have titles changed and polls scrapped and started over so as to spare feelings?

Is this huge messy deal really necessary for a fun little game on an internet message board?

i agree. everyone was open to be nominated and everyone is open to vote so i don't see the big deal

I don't understand either! Ist time we did this I got the "Drama Queen" award and it didn't bother me! I knew I won that fair and square at that point in my life and it was all fun and games. Thankfully I have been drama free for almost 2 yrs now.

A few got butthurt and now cried about it and now everything has to be changed specifically for them... ridiculous really.

Oh and ya know, I don't see anyone in the "biggest loser" category complaining.

I thought that I read somewhere that the awards weren't supposed to be taken seriously...

I really don't think "everybody" is taking it "so seriously".

I didn't even have to read that to know they shouldn't be!!

But you are absolutely correct. There was a whole thread about NOT getting all upset over this.

Ok I will reword it

Why are SO MANY taking it SO SERIOUSLY?

I agree with Becca, not many people are up in arms, just a few. Luckily.

I was one of the ones who didn't like Donna being lumped in a category titled Drama Queen just because I didn't know how she would react to it, but otherwise I would have thought the category was funny.
