Belinea June 20, 2017 Share June 20, 2017 (edited) It is easy to judge someone sitting behind a keyboard and I always think that before you do it, ask yourself 'Am I a supermodel? Am I super fit? Am I in the position to judge anyone based on appearance? Would I enjoy people judging me based on my looks? I do agree that he seems sensitive when it comes to this. (As is his right, I guess) Though as @bijoux mentioned just posting the picture would have said enough. (He sometimes manages to dig holes for himself when he talks because his feelings got hurt.) That being said, I do have to admit that I thought in this picture of him, the beard makes his face not look as good. It makes it wider in a way. And I am not judging him, I just thought that it might be time for the beard to go.

"Well, I'm not really allowed to change much, like the color of my hair. I'd love to be a redhead one day. But I've learned a lot from our hair people, too, you know, whether curling it, blowing it out, or just taming it down, because I have really, really curly hair. So I play with that more."

It's apparently quite common in some places. A co-worker from English told me that when she was in elementary school, she looked out over a school assembly and every single child's head was blonde. Most of them later went dark as my co-worker's did. A rule of thumb I heard as to whether you can dye your hair blonde and it will look natural is if you were blonde as a child you can go blonde and it will look real.

Very interesting indeed... I sincerely believe Craig believes his poll is fair and that you can't cheat on it. I don't know enough about hacking to know how hard it actually would be fool his single IP address thing, but I do believe he believes it can't be fooled. The accuracy matters a lot to him. I don't think he protests because he has something to hide, but because it's a sensitive topic for him since it gets brought up every year. (And yet every year he seems surprised, lol) Based on results, I tend to think it's not cheating that rules that day, but that certain places in fandom grab opportunities to highjack things like worst episode to make it into a statement of their anti Felicity stance, whereas the Olicity crowd would much rather vote on what they love. It's about who is paying attention to certain categories and overall, I just don't think the Olicity crowd spends too much time worrying about the poll. It's easy then to stack the decks when half the fandom isn't even that engaged.

LOL Has he never heard of VPNs? They hide/change IP addresses. I was using one to watch international Netflix. He uses poll daddy which despite his acting like it's got some CIA protection levels has been hacked when other websites have used it for polls. I mean the US elections got hacked, Hilary Clintons email server got hacked, but Craig thinks it's impossible for his silly little tv poll to be hacked/cheatable? As for why- it's like @BkWurm1 said they use that poll as some referendum on how terrible Felicity/Olicity is (which it's not) which is reinforced by Craig who acts like his poll/website speaks for the entire Arrow fandom (which it/he doesn't). Though to be fair I'm fairly positive Olicity fans only vote to piss Craig personally off when Felicity/Olicity win. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/590/#findComment-3397892

I don't know enough about hacking to know how hard it actually would be fool his single IP address thing, but I do believe he believes it can't be fooled. The accuracy matters a lot to him. I don't think he protests because he has something to hide, but because it's a sensitive topic for him since it gets brought up every year. (And yet every year he seems surprised, lol) Based on results, I tend to think it's not cheating that rules that day, but that certain places in fandom grab opportunities to highjack things like worst episode to make it into a statement of their anti Felicity stance, whereas the Olicity crowd would much rather vote on what they love. It's about who is paying attention to certain categories and overall, I just don't think the Olicity crowd spends too much time worrying about the poll. It's easy then to stack the decks when half the fandom isn't even that engaged. (Or even realizes some are trying to make the poll into a referendum against Felicty and Olicity) Oh, I'm sure he probably does believe that. Doesn't mean it's true though. And I know it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things but he seems to hold the result in high regard as if it's proof of the entire fandom opinion instead of realizing that only a small percentage even votes on that thing. (I know quite a few O/F fans refuse to even visit GATV to vote or give him clicks because of his past behavior. Then there's the wider audience who've probably never even heard of his site.) 7 hours ago, Midnight Lullaby said: There are easy ways around the IP restriction..of course it's silly to put any kind of effort into cheating in a fandom poll, who even cares to waste time on that? LOL Reddit cares. Trust me. It's sad but true. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/590/#findComment-3398368
