You may not take a check, but you still love CCP enough to do things in their interest.
So if you like anything enough to do something in someone else's interest, you're an employee?
I believe you should stop trying to redefine words in the English language.

They talk about EVE on that site. I would argue excessively over the other games. If it were not connected to EVE, then EVE wouldn't be promoted by them.
"They"? What do you mean, "they"?
And how "excessively"? There isn't even a review for the game on the site last I saw. What the hell are you smoking?

So if the award is a joke that is prone to ballot stuffing, why are fans, paid employees, and unpaid employee/volunteers wasting valuable sticky and website space trying to stuff the ballot box?
Because they want to promote their favorite game. And "valuable sticky space"?  You're hilarious.

Do they care about being rewarded for excellence? Or rewarded for pwning the awards, so that good games from small devs can get buried?
"Good games from small devs"? You just defined EVE

Didn't say you were an employee, but you do things in the interest of CCP, whether or not it is the right thing to do.

They talk about fanfest, about Kali, and promote all the things EVE wants consumers to know. I bet you'll never see anything negative about EVE there though.

How does winning an award that you just admitted is a "ballot stuffing" gimmick promoting this game in a positive way? To me man, I'd want to win the award 'cause I produce the best game. Not 'cause I do whatever it takes to ramrod the award in my favor, whether or not I produce the best game.

Not really.
EVE is a good game. It is not the best game. CCP isn't the biggest developer, but it aint small like it used to be.
Most of the best games in each category never got through the nomination process. Then again, when a big 150,000 subscription powerhouse like the EVE community works to stuff the ballot box, aint nothing but a WoW can stop it.
Meanwhile, poor, cash-strapped games like Ryzom are looking for financial backing, and could really use the exposure from those who wanna see online games develop in new directions. Not the stale old stuff games like WoW and EVE have been pushin' for years.

Ryzom is poor for a reason. The game sucks. Sorry.
It is clear by your posts that you believe there are MMORPGs out there superior to EVE. If so, why don't you play them instead of whining here?

You know, in those two weeks... you could play EVE too 
P.S. I don't only play EVE, either. My second-favorite currently-existing MMORPG wasn't even on the nomination list.

In total i have played about 7 mmo's
Once i was subscribed to 4 at one given time.
And from what ive learnt is...
Planetside = Outdated engine, repetative, ruined with implementation of BFR
Gw = Heck it was free so i bought it
EvE = Different, although the forums are to be avoided
WoW = Is alright but noting i haven't seen before.
EQ2 = Quite liked this game but has very little users.
RF-Online = How the heck did this even get produced, shame
Matrix-online = Same as above
Runescape = Friends asked me to play this one, would be a fun sort of mini-game to play if it didn't have the same community as WoW ("z0mg noob give me rune for free noob!!11")

The only way WoW will not win the award is if the WoW community and indeed Blizzard couldn't give a rats ass about it.. I mean come on.. compare the subscriptions! Not like Blizzard needs to advertise their game with winning an award of this nature.

ok here's how I voted...(and imo Dana Massey or whoever was writing the descriptions for which game to vote for is so biased, dare I say snide in her descriptions :P)
graphics: out of Wow, EQ2 and EVE I went EVE. Frankly because I find a more realistic representation more visually appealling than garish colours or cartoony sprites, regardless of the engines or cards or whatever 
story: I think it was WoW, Saga of Rhyzom and EVE. I went EVE. I haven't played Saga of Rhyzom so I can't say for sure. The only thing I really like about WoW story is that (even though the player base takes it that way) alliance can be seen as the ebil ones. I mean, they're pretty much territorial expansionist pigdogs However, not much of the 'story' is integrated well into the game, and it's static, it doesn't really seem to develop.
PVE: I went WoW. Even though the 'my the fans of this game certainly are tenacious!' comment made me snarl a bit. Technically, EVE pve can be more exciting as you have more to lose but...I know at the end of the day I'm pew pewing at a load of red crosses. Although Dark's argued convincingly that the EVE missions vs WoW quests are actually more varied...before the grind sets in when you first begin playing WoW they 'seem' like they aren't formulaic go do this and get that...Obviously this wears off, but I still think WoW wins on the quests.
PVP: Do I even need to say WoW has nothing on Eve in this respect. Nothing.
Out of the newcomers, neither interested me so I voted on the bin.
Out of new games coming out, I was most interested in lord of the rings (even though I am a tad pessimistic about it)
Overall game was EVE, most of the time I'd agree comparing the two games are completely pointless because they're different games doing different things. But on a personal level, I generally prefer the style and concept of EVE, and definately prefer the community. WoW is where I go when I need to mindlessly hit stuff for a short period of time.

Apparently they think we're creating 100's of accounts and voting for EVE. Especialy one little douche, who thinks you spend 90% of the time playing EVE zoomed out...
Idiots.
Oh, and they say we should be banned for having a link on the main page and on the forums.

Heh, you know the MMO market sucks when WoW get nominated for best pvp and Eve get nominated for best pve. As for the discussion on eve vs wow pve im not sure which one is best but its just sad that there isnt anything better around.
