    So... what are the rules on voting for yourself? Not that I'm doing that. Nothing shifty going on here...

    Everybody's voting for themselves anyway. There's really no reason to try to hide that

    I used to do it all the time when I was an entitled 17/18 year old punk who judged my own self-worth on Ciddies wins, and over 10 years later I still cringe about it. Since then I never nominate myself and usually don't vote for myself unless there's some silly dumb award like me having wavy hair or making out with Sephex or whatever, because that's hilarious and fair play to whichever assholes out there made those jokes! It'd be embarrassing as smurf to do Best Member or Funniest Member or any of the others that really mean something though.

    I may not be Best or Funniest member. Not worth the risk.

    When I was Award Bloke I can tell you there were some Ciddies that were won by one vote by a self-voter.

    Also I don't mean to make anyone feel like an asshole if they do it. I've been really fortunate to win more than my fair share of Ciddies so feel free to ignore my preachy self-righteous trout. If you come here day after day then you deserve recognition, and if you haven't had that I'm sorry.

    I've also lost ciddies by one vote where I didn't vote for myself. No idea if those were tie-breaker ciddies, or if my vote would have forced a tie-breaker and how that would have went, but I usually just didn't vote for anyone in ciddies where I was nominated.

    I sometimes vote for myself in categories I expect to get no votes so I can have at least one vote next to my name xD

    Really though, if you vote yourself where you think you deserve it, or just want to win, or whether you like seeing if you can win without voting yourself or whatever... I don't think it's a huge deal. It's a fun little forum award. Do your thang

    I think it depends on the category. If I'm like "heck yeah, my avy is super cool! It's a kawaii dragon! *self-vote*" on a more silly nom then yeah. but if it's something I feel, "well hmm someone is better than I am and they super deserve this vote, I don't deserve it." Then yeah I don't vote for myself.
