I have been on this group probably 2 years and I would estimate that we probably have someone in a contest about every 6 months or so. Personally, I like to see other chi lovers vote for chis in contest and I am always happy when our votes help them win!!! However, in the past, many members have always asked that any "contest votes" post be clearly labeled in the subject line so that those not interested can just delete it. It has always seemed to work well when everyone adheres to that. I am not a mod or anything on this group, just a member, but as a member I would like to ask that if anyone is soliciting votes for a contest that they do clearly state so in the subject line and that all replies to the post also state so in the subject line and that way everyone can be happy! :-) Marsha
