    Yes, it's a possibility, read these unbelievable threads:





    If it were totally up to me, if I saw signs of a syndicate I'd ban all the members involved from voting in the poster of the year contest.

    I thought I saw in one of the threads that the prize would not be points. Doesn't that make the syndicate pointless?

      Yes but you've got to understand the (short) history of this contest. Read this post and you'll understand why I'm concerned about syndicates even without points:

      cocknblocker, who i never heard of has about 15 votes..lol
      monkeyfocker, who no one knows has 25 votes, but no votes for donny juan or rjt, who are his buddies.
      sportsgirl, who never posts here, has 30 votes. lol.. yeah, 30 votes from sportsgirl.. i can name 20 more like this that i dont even know that have 25+ votes.. how would these guys possibly get 25 votes.. no one ever sees them.

      posters i have never heard of before, have 29 votes.. lol

      tons of posters that had only 2 votes after 24 hrs, now have 28-36 votes.. 3 posters had 1 vote and 2 hrs later had 25 votes..

      there are 4 posters i know of that had 2 votes at noon yesterday, and by 7 pm, they had over 25 votes.. lol


      I love it.. it's actually cute.. i can't believe posters would go through all that work to just have more votes. i know off hand 12 posters who i can put my whole mortgage, and life savings that have cheated.. i won't mention who, but we know, jj.. jj, my hand to god, i did NOT cheat at all. my votes were legitimate, not even 1 vote of mine was cheated.. and i'm sure so were yours..

      i just want to say that of my 27 votes of you actual posters that voted for me,, i really wanna say thank you and i appreciate it, cause i swear to god, i did NOT create any fake accts..

      is there a way willie bee can figure out how many new accts have been created at sbr in the last 36 hrs.. i will bet record #'s of sign ups..


      this contest is good for the garbage.. it's not even real..

          Really? Explain to me how something like the quote below wouldn't do anything but undermine and possibly sabotage the contest?

          All points awarded to Nominee will be divided EVENLY to all syndicate members..

          All members are to NOT speak to any SBR employees about goings on inside the syndicate...

          All decisions wil be voted on by the syndicate, MAJORITY rules...

              who cares? Syndicates are the american way. It would be a shame to NOT have a syndicate.

                        Banning the syndicate would be easy. If I see the same people all voting together in every poll, they can be banned from voting. It's no problem at all. Incidentally, you need at least 500 posts to vote in the poster of the year polls and you've only got 300.

                          So you will ban a bunch of poster

                          then the award should be called

                          Only people who I choose can can be POY

                            500 is what we used last year. I'm checking to see how the worst poster voting goes. If 500 posts works for that then the number will probably be 500. Be careful, if I notice a syndicate voting the same way in every poll, it's going to trial by public opinion and I don't think you'll win.

                              So fearless has become an enemy of the syndicate

                              Syndicates are allowed by Democracy

                              banning a Syndicate well,
                              "Welcome to North Korea"

                              banning the syndicate is just a move out of Fear, and it reveals fearless real colors. He belives in Dictatorship , and in Supreme Power

                              This Makes POY elections just a charade

                              Cuz he can manipulate votes like they did back in the 80's in Panama

                              Hope You find this amusing!!!

                              Do you really want to got againts our american ways???

                              Too much people died for Democracy and Freedom, do you really want to take that away from american citizens?

                                I said:

                                "Be careful, if I notice a syndicate voting the same way in every poll, it's going to trial by public opinion and I don't think you'll win. I didn't say I'd do what you said I'd do."

                                We'll pick a judge and a jury and we'll let them decide. Never even insinuated I'd do what you just said.

                                      Who the Fukk is this fearless character?? who gave him the power to tell US who we can and cant vote for???

                                      we'll vote for whoever the fukk we want to..

                                      I'm thinking it would be SO nice to get Sammy voted in as POSTER OF THE YEAR!!!!

                                      I would love to see Loshak interviewing Sammy in his wrestling unitard screaming DO WORK..

                                      Pavyracer and Bread would have heart attacks..

                                      SAMMY for POY!!!
