Just to clarify, I didn't say that we should allow more than one nomination per user in the current PoTM. I said we should have more than one in a new, different competition.

Having got that out of the way, I have to say that I don't believe that 'this is a community thing' excuses not trying to improve something that is bad.

As a matter of fact, I believe that most of newcomers like myself won't support a subpar system like the current one (I have no real facts, I speak from my experience). I do understand that you make sure the stories submitted are not complete garbage, but in no way are all stories deserving of the spotlight they get. It doesn't matter that only the best will go on the front page, simply being on the 'Nominations' page is enough.

I could go on and on, but I see no point in ranting without end. What I want to put across is this:

People in charge should always try to bring the best to the community. I believe that this is what you want too. Most of the time, the masses don't know what is the best for them. At some point people with power should step up and make some changes. Those changes might be for the better, or they might fail horribly. But sitting idle while there is lots of room for improvement is worse.
