I wish to represent the staff community on behalf and put forward that as we advance @wasteyouryouth shouldn't be eligible for the Annual awards. He should give a fair chance to others. More coming to your way buddy on day 3.

Honestly he is a cool cat. Had my doubts about him after he deleted some of my posts in the cricket section, stayed respectful and didnt abused his power when I throw shade at his actions. @wasteyouryouth is fair and honourable and truly deserve those awards.

Wether or not @wasteyouryouth does not figure in the next awards he is indeed the people’s champ. The voice of the people is the voice of god. Amen.
