OP, people like you that annoy me.

I conduct monthly contest for our Facebook fans on our page at work. There is a few members, like you, who spam their friends and even strangers for votes. Our contest is supposed to be anonymous, however usually one of their stupid friends comes on and states the name of the persons work in their accolades of the image. That and a certain person always gets 45 votes within a few minutes of voting being opened.
All they win is a free print, it's not even worth haggling for votes. To me, it takes away the fun having your friends or strangers even come and click "like".
So do the world a favor and quit photography and take up basket weaving. You don't deserve to own a camera.
