I used Nalani's ID and voted as both Nalani and Carole.

I bet you get NARUed now...and they provide your IP address to prove you did it.  ;D

I'm not going to even bother.

Because stores wont be seen by anyone anyway now.

But I guess it keeps the flock happy. 

Baaaaaaaaaaa

eBay won't provide the ISP addy when an account is hacked.  Oh wait, voting interference is more of a serious issue.  ;D

Xppman,
That graphic made me want to PUKE! 
A fire chief from a very large and affluent city here was recently caught with a sheep.  FOR REAL.  People are walking around wearing shirts that read, "Baaaaaaa means no."

They can't NARU her.  They only record the IPs of people who are logged in. 

Happy eBay Stores owners cheering the selection process in the Best of Stores contest.

p.s. I decided to use Gilbert's ID too, and he is NARU'd. 

EDIT- which reminds me, eBay user tried to vote only to find out her ID had already been used to vote:

Bingo! The contest is a loyalty marketing mind game designed to retain existing store owners by making them feel a personal connection with eBay.

Duh.  :twistedevil:

I find it odd that one store is a finalist in all the categories... but I won't say that on the eBay Boards.  People will think I am picking on the finalists or I am jealous because so and so wasn't chosen.  I have NOTHING against the store/seller.   I swear!
I understand the entire concept about contests being marketing gimmicks, but you would think that eBay would have enough brains to hire an OUTSIDE source to do the judging.

Ummm, we're talking about eBay here... 

You'd also think they'd have enough sense to not pick stores with policy violations every year and to use a voting system that would require users to log into their accounts before voting...but they don't.
