Wouldn't people also take into account things such as personality, interactivity with the audience and being a general entertainer?

Same with label and other awards...

• 1. User's join date must be before the current year's awards. Example: Users that wish to vote in 2011 awards must have joined before 2010/1/1. This would prevent users from voting on things that happened before they joined the forum.
  2. User's post count must be greater than or equal to X. I suggest numbers such as 20, 30, 50, 70, or 100. It could be tiered such that every X posts the user can vote in another category of his or her choice. This would limit the amount of users voting in categories they know nothing about.

On a tangent per these awards, I think there should be prerequisites for next year's awards. Here are a couple of suggestions:

Mala - Eyez not the best track? Dissapointing results in general.

Not surprised by Joker getting best producer, I have personally never liked any of Jokers tunes except the odd 1 or 2 but I do appreciate how much of a good producer he is, some of the sounds he makes are are on some level.
Thank god Joy Orbison one best new producer, look at the two below him.
Hyperdub rightfully one best label, that label is a machine but Dub Police and Ruttun? Deep medi far surpasses them 2 labels put together.
Emalkay- when I look at you winning best track................
Not surprised by In for the kill winning best remix
Best album sounds about right all though I wish it were City Limits.
Why is it that for best mix the first and second place winners stand out (Not in a good way)
Well done to MAH, fully deserved but I didn't realise how underrated Jay5 and Antisocial was which is such a shame.
BUT the biggest shock is Juno, wtf Juno is one of the worst, they don't even discount postage on large orders, or they never used to. I suppose Juno would be quite pissed off if they weren't on the list considering they have sponsored these awards.......

You gotta understand that the harder dubstep is really popular and Rottun & Dub Police are 2 of the top labels doing that stuff. When I look at u was hyped and played to death last year same with in for the kill no surprises there.

As for the 2 mixes theyre really good mixes, 16Bit goes from burial to emalkay flawlessly and its a well thougt out and great mix mix, and I was there live when Excision did his shambhala mix adn it still is the best dubstep set Ive witnessed for the harder dubstep it is the best.

That's your opinion and if you feel they deserve a prize why don't you make it your duty to get one made especially for them?

have you listened to the milky pie mix? well deserving of the top spot as it covers the full spectrum of dubstep and is very well mixed, besideswhich, the final 25ish minutes is purely deeper stuff and 2step... dont just go "oh it's 16bit, i bet its nothing but chainsaw wankery and filth" theres some joker, burial, darkstar, pangea and not to mention 16-bits own deep stuff which is actually very lush and well put together
