christmas_ape Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Would be interested in hearing the argument for allowing diaries from other sites to be included in DOTM here. I believe it got pretty comfortably voted against last month but I suppose it makes sense to keep it in the poll in case some people missed it then. My thinking is it's best all round to have 1 central hub for all TEW diaries, that way you get all the best content without having to check numerous sites. I have no doubt that there's plenty of great diaries that aren't posting on here, but realistically you're not going to get most people visiting numerous sites so the polls won't be representative of the voters. I'm also sure everyone has their reasons for posting elsewhere but if somebody was posting somewhere but wanted to be included in DOTM it wouldn't be hard at all for them to just cross post and have a thread with links up. Many writers at the moment (Eisen-verse, myself, 20LEgend) are posting shows in other formats (pdf/youtube etc) but still posting it here. Personally I just think these forums are strongest when you have a decent amount of good quality diaries posting here. That way you have people reading each others, commenting on each others diaries and just in general there's more of a community. So whilst including other sites diaries into DOTM doesn't do anything directly to harm that, ideally anything that encourages people to post on GDS is a good thing, and if people want to be a part of DOTM then that's a good draw for this forum that should be protected.

I suppose the issue with including diaries from other sites for me would be there is a great load of content on here which I don't get to read. I couldn't really vote for stuff on other sites. Personally I post my diary on a couple of facebook groups which I'm 99% sure alot of the members on here are part of. But thats mainly because I get alot more feedback on facebook and booking ideas from people than I do here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Element Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Don't you have to be a member of these forums to vote in these polls? I've noticed several usernames who have voted in the last few polls that don't match any users on the forum's members list. There's just 1 this time, but their vote is currently deciding one of the categories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLCJR4LIFE Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 The idea of having non GDS diaries in the voting for GDS diary awards is like WWE including AEW/NJPW guys in their Slammy’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
