There is a criterion to run for President that one must have a gold medal, so the user DuhHamburgler spammed as much as possible to get Airmax1227 the 'mentioned' gold medal while Lunatic helped along the way within the main campaign thread.

This is direct spam, evading (thereby devaluing the sanctity of) the gold-medal rule and nobody is being punished.

What part of that is freedom of speech? Why are the mods not enforcing it?

If someone did that for me or someone else they'd enforce it.

He received the gold medal for liked posts prior to the one for mentions.

Mhmm, do you enjoy mocking people who drool, is this some kind of image shitposting game to you?

Did you intentionally like all his posts after spamming threads, in order to make him get the medal sneakier after Supadudz stopped your spamming?

That's a better score than the contribution effort you, Lunatic and Airmax have done to the site's debate and forums section until power came tempting you.

What do you think the purpose of the gold medal rule is?

The purpose of the gold medal rule is to make sure the user is dedicated to the website.

You have undermined its entire purpose whether you admit it or not.

After some research I am not certain his campaign is even real/sincere and I think he's just here for lols.

Therefore full steam ahead with my campaign, not dropping out.

It's a blatant power grab by Airmax, its gross how he cant handle NOT running the foremost internet debating platform. Instead of retiring with his dignity intact he insists on clinging to power like a modern day Strom Thurmond.

I don't understand how anybody is allowed to make two, three and four accounts to post in threads like this. No one and I mean no one should be allowed to have more than one account on this website. It becomes too easy to vote for yourself in debates, to vote for your friends in debates. I don't understand why the mods let it happen.

This isn't true, Airmax would never use goons and discord friends to dirty the election. He has a proven track record of responsible moderation and frankly we should be grateful he has taken an interest in the site at all.

For some weird reason, I feel like Airmaxfan, Airmaxgoon and DuhHamburger are the same person.

It does appear that Hamburger attempted to spam Airmax into having an additional gold medal (Supa stopped him). It's weird of Hamburger to do that.

That said, Airmax seems to have legitimately earned the Respectful Contributor for 100 likes toward his posts.

Current forum stats for Airmax: 5 topics, 120 posts, 147 likes, 275 mentions.
Spot checking it: Less than half of Airmax's posts have any likes (which rules out it being a solo effort from Hamburger). Probably a third of the mentions are indeed from Hamburger.


In order for a user to qualify for the Presidential position:
  • The user’s account must be greater than 6 months old.
  • The user must have been awarded at least one golden medal achievement.
  • The user can not have been banned more frequently than once within the past year.
  • The user can not have been banned for more than 21 days within the past year.
  • The user must have abided by all campaigning rules.
  • The user must agree to their role powers and limitations.
  • The user can not have served more than 1 previous term as President.
  • The user can not be currently serving on the moderation team.

All sorts of names crawling out of the woodwork at the moment.

None of them with much to offer.

Other than coerced drivel.
