Hello,

Once again we are faced with at least one individual who has gone out of their way to sway the votes in what should be just a friendly end-of-year voting competition. You can see that in previous years we have had to deal with people for different reasons such as using 2nd forum accounts or creating multiple fake accounts (check out the previous year's sub forums).

On this occasion this individual was bribing with insim money to have players vote for him and his teammates and then asking them to not mention anything to anybody.

By all means ask your teammates/friends to vote for you in the awards, but it crosses the line when you are taking advantage of new players in the community who did not own a forum account up until they were offered insim money for voting.

Why am I addressing this?

We had numerous individual complaints
If voting is unfair, the entire process is boring and a waste of everyones time.
It is not a contest of who is willing to spend the most insim money to gain votes.

What is happening?

All current members of the community team "NFS" will be excluded from winning any awards this year only (2022). This does not mean they are excluded from future award events.

The affected players are listed below:

M3tz (c i m a)
Alex (a l e e x)
V2u (V2u)
Wolf (5mbol)
Keplr (rfrf alshr8)
Ukr4in (rb26dettlove)
error (blackmafia)
Pakistan (dojo-san)
Vilix (Vilix)

But I had nothing to do with it?

Unfortunately, a member of your team took the weight on their shoulders and was dishonestly acquiring votes for members of NFS, so please take that up with him.

What can we take from this?

Well, we now understand that running this event in its tradtional format no longer works as it used to. We will look to see how we can improve the awards for next time and make them better.

The results will be posted soon. Badges are confirmed for these awards but there may be a delay in them reaching your profile.

Thanks
