You people (not the mods) freaking fail at life.
I'd run it. I'd change a few rules too.

this site has been taking a dive just like this country. more retards are rising up and screwing over the intelligent.

half the ****** people that entered didn't even follow the rules of the event. they wouldn't host the pictures or follow the format of the submission. it was like getting the special ed students to do an arts and crafts assignment.

For each COTM I voted on, I looked at every entry and picked the car that appealed the most to me. Clearly some members were incapable of that.

i don't see the problem... if someone makes multiple posts, they get banned, right? people will always complain... should we shut down the entire forum? how about just making a simple rule, no one can vote for the sites fcotm until they've been a member for 3 months or something like that.

about the ION stuff, those people that said the ion shouldnt run, your a bunch of ******* idiots. the ion was the "test" car so to say for the cobalt. built on the same platform same motor, trans. etc. make a big stink about something like that. ******* retards. its a good ting spec won too. that way the ones with their panties in a bunch could shut the **** up, whiney little bitches. wonder why the cobalt community doesnt get respect, well besides the new LNF crowd, its things like this, being unaccepting to change, if this pack of retards cant accept their own platform your in for trouble. /rant, retards

Well i was trying to enter my 2.2l this summer but not no more because everyone who had to win asked people to vote or mad new accounts. i actually wanted to see what people would think of it in the summer.

That really sucks man. Who the hell would create multiple accounts just to vote for themselves to get COTM? Seriously, does your life suck that bad? Pisses me off that a few morons had to ruin it for the rest of us.
I always took the time to look at all of the entries, no matter how many their were, I guess that was too much to ask from some of our fellow members.

i did the same thing. i enjoyed looking at everyones photo shots of the cars.
as far as the ions, this is a cobalt/g5 forum. but i wouldn't have a problem with the ions in the contests.
i say give the contest another chance. make everyone aware of the problems that are being caused.
