Why don't we have a rule that says "You can't vote for a site at which you have any moderation powers or staff abilities."

I bet if we took stats from the past few elections we would see that sites with more staff are outperforming sites with no staff, even though the number of staff on a site likely does not correlate with quality measures of the site (we could check this by reading the full reviews provided by the review team).

I agree with this. It is hard to win if forums with large amounts of staff members just have the staff vote for their site. I only have one other staff member besides myself. A lot of other new forums are like that too.

Whoops, fixed. 🙂

This is not the place to discuss this. As the rule stands, you may not vote for a site if you are its owner, however, you may still vote for it if you are a staff member.
 
I'm going to vote for Supromote, not a member of any of these forums on the list, but CMT seems to be doing a good job there 🙂
