I take exception to that, there is nothing wrong with raising a question of authenticity as long as it is done in a respectable manner.

These contests are supposed to reward people who are willing to go out of their way and take upon their shoulders a fairly sizable level of risk to present a very private part of their lives for the enjoyment of all who come on here, and for some asshole to go out and steal a bunch of pics from a website and throw them on here and claim to be the person in those pics in an attempt to steal a prize that should rightly go to someone who did take those risks and deserves the reward is intolerable.

Now in the case of Joerg I did question the authenticity, I did so in a polite manner, sufficient evidence was presented to indicate that yes he and the lovely Sam are the real deal, and I did publicly acknowledge that fact. I am not however going to apologize for making sure that when I go and place my vote next week that I am doing so on two people who are who they claim to be.
