Why are movie/mondo items winning POTY? They belong in the movie poster category.

It’s been happening for over 3 years now, ridiculous! “Ghost of Tsushima” wins POTY & Art Print of the Year? How is this possible and who can justify this with an explanation? Artists pouring their heart & soul into their 2023 work are the real victims here. Robbed of a fair and honest recognition of their hard work. It’s a shame.

We’ve been told it’s a problem & will be addressed and nothing’s being done about it, in fact it’s getting much worse.

A small group of Mondo/Movie members game the system come voting time. They vote in blocks to pump up their movie prints which have no business being in the Music poster category, enough is enough.

The speed at which the site loads these days takes me back to the AOL dial up days. What was the term, "2400 baud rate". The last 2 days have just been riddled with gateway errors. What happened?

Seriously? That's crazy. Who would bother with EB? Wait a minute, are the folks at Collectionzz Russian?

For what it's worth, things are moving along now so if someone did something, it worked.

the russians are currently using their troll farms to spam message boards and social media platforms w/ their normal disinformation. it's been especially heavy the last few weeks.

lots of new accounts get created and try to add posts with links to sites as the forum gets indexed by google and other search engines. need to disable posting on new accounts for a month or something or just no new accounts on election years... :neutral:
