Please... Can You Help Out BiggerPockets? (It will take just 2 minutes!)
***UPDATE 11/19/13: Forbes heard us loud and clear - and they said they were getting overwhelmed with messages from us and we didn't need to vote anymore! So .. mission accomplished! You can ignore the rest of this! *******
Original:
Hey everyone-
So Forbes magazine (yes, THE Forbes magazine) is running a contest for "The Best Websites For Your Money" ... and BiggerPockets wants to be on that list!
So we are looking for as many people as possible to nominate us!If BiggerPockets has helped you out at all in the past with your bottom line... please consider taking two minutes to write a quick email or send a tweet.
This is what the original article stated:

Hey Folks -
It looks like the folks at Forbes have heard you all loud and clear. I received the following message this morning . . . It is one of the greatest emails I've gotten -- shows that there is definitely power in the BP community!
I hope we can respect their request to hold back on the emails to them.
Thanks SO much for the overwhelming support!
Hi there, My name is [Removed], and I'm one of the Forbes reporters in charge of the "Best Money Websites" search (http://www.forbes.com/sites/samanthasharf/2013/11/01/seeking-your-nominations-for-the-best-websites-for-your-money-2013/). I'm not sure if one of your fans is particularly zealous or if you asked your readers to email us, but we've gotten dozens and dozens of BiggerPockets nominations. While it's great your readers are so passionate, inclusion on the list is not based on number of votes; we're evaluating websites on quality and content instead. Do you mind gently asking your readers (or Twitter followers, or however the news got out) to halt the barrage? You can tell them that we're definitely considering BiggerPockets as a "Best Money Website" and they'll be able to see who made the cut later in December. If you have any questions, I'm reachable at [Removed]. We so appreciate your readers' enthusiasm, and hope this means they're excited to see the full list -- it's just that BiggerPockets nominations are filling our inbox and we want to make sure we don't miss nominations for other sites. Thanks
