Turn 10 Cheats on CNet Polls

CNet was holding a poll to see what the consumers thought as to which driving simulator was better.

Well apparently during the polls Turn 10's community manager Che Chou decided to post on the Froza Motorsports forums to say that if the community voted for Froza 3, each one that casted a vote would get a free Unicorn download for Froza 2, which is apparently a very rare vehicle in the game, in which the forum got over 2,200 replies many of which asking for the download after casting the vote.

Needless to say CNet recently closed down the polls because of complaints of cheating with GT5 still in the lead by over 1,000 votes.

Well, not very noble of Trun 10. Though many will defend what they did I wont doubt.

Wow. Thats pretty funny. I guess they not that confident in their game. Who knows? But funny none the less.

Again, that's like saying GS cheated in the Webbys award by offering a rare emblem to anyone who voted. It's not cheating.

Cheating would be something like doubling the votes by hacking or something like that.

So calm down.

well it's not exactly cheating, but it's not very good behaviour either, in fact it's downright dodgy, serves them right that gt5 still won, this kind of behaviour also ruined the results from the poll,gt5 could have finished a respectable 3,200 ahead.delta3074

Turn 10 didn't hack the poll,so this thread fails,cheating is hacking the poll.VitunLehmat

So Gran Turismo was still in the lead... after the cheating on Forza's behalf :|

Cheating is a strong word. They just offered a prize to people who voted for them.It's not like they forced them to vote or hack the poll or anything like that.

And hey, GT5 was still leading anyway.

Only cows would do that, not lemmings? My God dude, just stop.

Ironically TC is spamming the same,why you made 2 threads.VitunLehmat

How dare they offer incentives to their fans on their own goddamn board? The indignity of it. Seriously, how can anyone think that that constitutes as cheating? I mean, really. :|Verge_6

Besides, the members at the Forza forums would have voted for Forza anyway, just like members at the GT forums would have voted for GT.

Turn 10 was just giving them some encouragement.

[QUOTE="Delsage"][QUOTE="Verge_6"] Gee, I dunno, maybe because the term "lobbying" is used on an hourly basis in regards to politics?Verge_6

Hey look I can do the immature facepalm to. In fact yes I do watch the news, and lobbying does not occur on an hourly basis. In fact when it does happen those people usually get into trouble whether it be sent to prison or kicked out of their current position. So tell me what is your argument based on again?
