I voted no.... we have the right to make polls as surely as we have the right to discuss a new unit called furgon three months after it is released:cool:

Polls are a great way for people to interact with the forum without ever exerting any thought.

03-27-2004, 06:47 PM
Why should those who don't think interact with the forum? Doesn't that pretty much defeat the purpose?

Yes.

Yeah, that's what I thought. It's hard to sense your emotion, xyxaxyz2. I know it's hard in general to see emotion on the Internet, but your sarcasm is oh so subtle.

mabey polls should become a gold only privlage. hmmm?
just a thought

bad thought, since polls are asking for the opinion of the TAO community and greys make the majority of that community.
just my two lincolns.....get it? huh, do ya? and on a further note
I LIKE THA WAY U MOVE, bum bum bum
o and xyx (or w/e) wouldnt be able to vote i think. hes grey right?

Don't worry about me. I haven't made a poll in any of the forums I go to in about a year. I don't like making polls, because no set of poll questions can possibly cover a varied community.

What does the armageddon option bit on the third choice mean. I clicked it to see what it would do but all it did was show me the poll results. I am confused.;)

If I wanted to restrict your freedom I would have done it in much easier ways. I'm coming as a member of the community here saying that we need to be, IMO, more exhustive of issues and not leave half dicussused issues everywhere and start massive amounts of threads (not just poles, that was for the added irony). But thats just my opion.
If I wanted to force my opinion on you guys that wouldn't be very hard. But the much more challenging and much more fair and correct way would be convincing you to my opinion.
So back to it then...
The issue here wasn't really polls, haven't you noticed the flood of new threads lately, primarly threads with less substance then what usually threads should be?

Where have all the good threads gone? I leave for a week or so, and I come back to a forum full of threads not fit for pig slop. So I beg of you, all good posters(you know who you are) please post some good threads. I know this thread is slop too, I guess you could use it for meanigless posts. What do I care?

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
Well, isn't this nice
And isn't this ironic... don't you think?
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think evertyhing's gone wrong and everthing blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic.. and yeah I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
this has been brought to you by me

Irony is an AA meeting in Ireland. Or the fact that you state your name at an AA meeting.

snarr, i was just kidding b4 and u r right there is a massive amount of stupid and pointless threads being made this week. i think u should just make a stupid things to say thread and sticky it so when people have the urge to say something exceedingly dumb (which almost everyone does) they can go there.

stupidity. - Harlan Ellison

I got a better idea, whenever you got something stupid to say, go to microsoft word and type it there. I'm pretty sure no one will flame you in there.

Thats exactly the problem...
Threads can be stupid and pass as good if they are funny, of course not all threads have to be serious. If you wanna see good threads I suggest page 3-5.

I think you should not talk unless you have something meaningful to say, here at least - go to pointless thread to post pointless thoughts god knows there are too many of them.

the problem with someone satying something stupid in microsoft word is that they know no onebut themselves will see it, and doesnt stupidity go hand in hand with attention

OMG link you are such a dumbass n00b, you are probably 30% of the problem alone. Listen shut the **** up and go away, you haven't earned your right to declear any posts dead, especially not 2 hours after the last post way made.
Sparrow you are a dumbass too, probably another 20% of the problem but I already told you that several times. What the **** makes you think we delete threads after they die? You utter uber n00b.
Ughhh thats what happens when we are nice to n00bs.
