Let's check if the last poll's results still stand, shall we ...? ;)

Until the result pleases me :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
I could use an over-the-top comparison about how you seem to dislike democracy :twisted:
(I, for one, am not that fond of democracy, but that's a different story...)

I already said why I made this thing - imho, the previous poll was won by a vague statement =>
viewtopic.php?f=41&t=829&hilit=handling&start=10
The winning option mentions "certain circumstances", but there never was a poll that ask what these circumstances should be.
It's not my fault if people changed their mind in the mean time, but I don't mind ;)

I think the main outline is that a lot of the forum users don't care. Who can blame them? 36 people voted last time. Is that a lot? Or not?

Maybe...

I do think, however, it is even more silly to have rules and not enforce them. Since the previous poll, some "hands pictures" have popped up, but are still there.

Mario, perhaps you can update this and make it more obvious?
viewtopic.php?f=18&t=3
IF people want rules, I'd be happy to discuss how to make them sensible and sound, regardless of my views.

Pffff... I'm going herping over the weekend - maybe it will make me realize that everyone (including Michael and me) is bored about all this :oops: ;)

After all what's said and done, I think I'm finally going to drop this. The '"no hands" rule, as voted last time, is not being enforced by admin, which is fine (but makes that poll a bit silly). Let's just see what happens until the next Bad Guy comes along. I'm done with this, albeit light years later than most of you.
