Question for MikeP or Mods

Postby Spit » Sat Feb 09, 2008 1:21 am

Mike , why was the "NWO:Same as it ever was?" poll locked ? Just wondering.
If one of the moderators can answer my question , please do. I don't mean to make a big deal out of nothing but it hits me strange that a thread like that would get locked.

You should start a poll so that the mods can answer anonymously. Some suggested multiple choice selections:

"Fuck off, who cares"

"Stay the course...thousand points of light...stay the course"

"These aren't the droids you're looking for...move along"

The belief was that the poll was just being manipulated to favor "worse than it ever was". I think there was some suspicion that the NWZ'ers were trying to tip the scales. Who knows? Whuddevah. I can certainly unlock it but I think we got our answer.

So how much money did you donate? Hopefully enough to cover the tally of your ever popular poll, The Clash vs. Donna Summer....I wish I knew your secret that I could "vote twice by first voting logged on then voting again when I was logged out" Donna Summer could have kicked ass. [}:)]

Leave it locked. Why give trouble makers a place to play? This place is great.

This reminds me of your "Hey everybody - [i]particularly the mods[/i] - look, I hit 1000 posts" thread. Give us all a break already. It looks like you're "hitting us all strange" with these drama queen / needy threads and polls. I think you do mean to make a big deal out of it. An entire thread devoted to this? As if you didn't get the message by people not answering the first time around, now you bump it?

[i]If it's SO important to you[/i], why don't you do what most people do on most other boards and just e-mail the administration with any concerns instead of trying to create some kind of ridiculous public debacle. It's never worked for anyone before. It's immature. Or maybe you knew that it wouldn't get an answer because it's so petty and insignificant?

I'm just sayin'.....[|)]

I'm sorry, but I just have to question your sincerity now when you start a divisive poll where you encourage people to vote a second time twice by logging out. Sorry, but your new-found concern just rings a bit transparent. You had your fun with your poll. Now it's over. This is the height of passive / aggressive (shit-stirring), folks [V]

Agreed!

Yeah, but was it passive aggressive? I'm not talking about IP spoofing and all that. Unless you're talking about Ben. Eh, maybe.

Ah, Ben. How predictably timely. Speaking of passive/aggressive, I sometimes get the feeling you have something to say to me.
