On one hand, I really don't want to be a downer. That said, Zam, i'm sensing some passive-agressiveness in your comment. Cotm isn't meant to be some big competition people should get worked up over, it'S simply a way of occasionally highlighting awesome OCs from time to time. And as much as it's nice to get your character featured on the main page? People shouldn't be treating it as such a big deal. It'S literally just an image, a short description, and a link to an OC'S page I  question.

I'm serious. A few of the mods are legitimately getting nervous/anxious/stressed out about who we should even pick due assumptions on who is going to get cotm/who won't. The other admins and I have yet to even decide because of some of the unneeded tension that has formed in this thread, and the worry that selecting one batch of OCs over another and vise-versa is going to continue it.

I understand that you're young, Zam, and that cotm is going to be posted around your birthday. You seem pretty frustrated over some things and I get it. I'm glad that the bias towards pages that have art has been brought up. However, the way you've brough this up could have been presented in a more mature manner. Passive-agressively waving around names and saying that someone else is going to win is condescending as it is, and if that's your way of pressuring other users and the admins to vote/choose someone else then that's honestly pretty spiteful.

If someone has a problem with a user, OC, or just about any aspect of the wikia, just bring it up on an admin's message wall or create a topic on one of the forums about it. In the meantime, after this month's nominating, the admin might consider making cotm something that can't be nominated on (as it used to be) if this keeps up. The whole point of featuring a character in the first place was to have a little bit of fun. If voting and nominating is going to to leave people sour, then voting for anything at all is rather counterproductive, no?
