Last season we've had a lot of category skips, and a good chunk of the voters (especially one specific offender) had to be cut. I need some second opinions on how to handle category skips.

Speaking of skips, I've seen a few people skip whole categories (mainly in the final round but also in the regular voting,)  just because they don't want their character to lose. I honestly find this very distasteful, but should there be a rule against that?

I'd say limit the amount of skips to one or two, and even then the voter would need a legitimate reason (lack of interest? lack of time?) to do said skipping.

As for the second point - uh, was that really a problem? I didn't notice it tbh. o.o; I'm gonna have to agree with mantis on the second part. But the first part might be a bit iffy, because I know that the last sfw awards I voted in there were some categories that I might have skipped because I didn't exactly understand the category itself in terms of voting criteria. (except for one category which was because I forgot to vote on it. ^^)
