He wants us to link this to other sites, but when was the last time RS allowed people to link other sites on their forum?

We've always been allowed to link to other sites at RS.  Photos of our collections, costumes, some cool little news article we found.

We just can't link to Rebelscum competitors over there.


As for Dustin's campaigned, he's running on BEHALF of Rebelscum, so I can't fault them for pimping it.   I actually hope he wins, but until today, I actually thought the whole thing was a goof.  I didn't know he was serious about it....and that RS actually expected people would throw down 40 bucks just to help Dustin win.

I like Dustin, I hope he wins......but I'm not throwing 40 dollars down to that website to help him.

Is anyone running against him?

Here are the current poll results.

So, that means that if, say, GreenDay101 were to have 10 people sign up and refer to him, he'd be the next Fan Club President?

That's the worst way to reward someone with the Official Fan Club's Presidency I've ever heard of.

That IS the dumbest thing I've ever heard of... I could shell out 350 bucks and make 7 fake accounts right now and be the frontrunner?  Yikes.  That's about the same amount of money I'd spend on a plane ticket to Comic Con anyway - and they'll cover it if I win.

Vote for me everyone!

I agree, thats a horrible way to chose the president.

I was curious to find out exactly what the president does, and basically if Dustin wins, he gets an all expenses paid trip to the San Diego Comic Con, a gift basket full of collectibles, and an article in the Insider. More info can be found here

So basically what everyone is voting for is to give Dustin some toys and a trip to San Diego.

Actually Rob you're onto something here....how many members are here at JD?  I doubt it's close to 350, but let's assume it's half.

If we each pooled together $2 we could get someone from JD to win.

In the end, it'd be great advertising for JD....for $350 one of the staff members could go to Comic Con and report on the news.  And let's not forget about the exposure in the Insider! 

That's worth $350 right there!

We should nominate someone to represent the site... It'd be nice to at least have someone in the running using a @jedidefender.com tagline. Hell, I'd actually buy Hyperspace.

Really, the staff should get together and discuss.

Don't let RS get the spotlight.

Indeed. My current subscription expires this week; when I renew I'd be more than happy to throw a referral on board for the JD candidate.

Sorry guys first post in a long time but I read PW's post today and knew where to go to get comments-

I had actually thought of doing something like Dustin did just as promotion for my site. Once I saw his little plea, I entertained the thought of "running against him" and campaigning as a joke saying a vote for me is one against Scum's attempts to take over the SW Universe since he had his mitts in everything else SW. I kinda dropped the idea because while it was a joke, PW, probably would've threatened me to fire myself(long story!). But after reading PW's cocky post today, I really do wanna do this.

Being a friend of JD since day, if you guys wanted to throw some support my way- I would do it.

If we could get one of the more prominent JD staff members to run, I think we'd have a chance to represent the coolest SW site on the net!

Jeez, I would too but I have not seen him for awhile....

Then again, we need someone who isn't goofy looking  ;) - we can't let the general public think the site is run by a bunch of ugly *******.
