Ye fact is, if there's none of your fav DJ's there, it's because either... no one gives a fuck or you yourself and fellow supporter's don't vote for them.

Haven't you all worked out by now that it's only the trance fans that vote and actually treat this poll as gospel :lol:

firstly i didnt vote and im a trance fan...secondly, if, as you say, ONLY trance fans vote, then over the years what are DJs like Carl Cox, Grooverider, Andy C, Richie Hawtin, Fat Boy Slim, Lisa Lashes, Roger Sanchez, Fergie (who are all non-trance DJs and im sure ive missed quiet a few), doing in the top 10 or 20... Carl Cox was number one DJ and spends most of his time in the top 10 because all the TRANCE fans vote for him? :huh: ;)

I think the people who vote in this... which a majority would be from europe take their music a little more serious than we do down here in Aus.... its their life...and seeing trance is the number 1 dance genre there, thus meaning the top dj's are gonna be either trance / prog

can i accept that trance fans can't spell? sure can and do! :lol:

i think wat jarrod was saying, is that the voter prob mostly were trance lovers, sure other people can vote and who's to say you can only listen to one genre? maybe less australians vote, maybe more australians dont like trance too :lol:

y doesnt every1 vote next year then. Is it too hard to face that trance dominates???? Australians aint the biggest dance followers but those who are can still vote. There are more europeans in australia, so would our vote alter the results??? There is still the inthemix poll to vote in remember people.

errr what does this poll or thread have to do with 'better music'? we are talking about most popular DJ here. besides how good music is, is in the ears of the beholder... and last time i checked 50 cent isn't even a DJ :mellow:

before mentioning other peoples spelling mistakes, it pays to check your own :lol: ;)

maybe yes, maybe no, who is to say? we dont know the figures...what shits me is when people think a poll has no credit simply because the voted number 1 DJ plays trance, and assume that he must be number 1 only because (in their imagination) only/mostly trance fans vote in the poll...so its safe for me to assume that if lets saaaay, grooverider ever reaches number 1 in ANY Top DJ poll, it's OK for me to assume and say that he reached number 1 only because i think most of the poll voters were DnB fans? and not because he is actually worthy of the spot?

Instead of arguing, I reckon next year everyone should try and get some aussie DJs onto the list. We would obviously have to nominate a certain DJ to vote for though, so that would be pretty hard considering everyone likes different genres.

Im surprised Paul Glazby didnt make the top 100, the amount of quality trax he has produced in the past year has been phenomenal.
Seems to me hard house / NRG personal dont vote for this crap, i sure didnt.
