Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!
and I apologize if anyone took it that way.
Let's go from here then, and get this back on track.
Don't you think? The issue, not the personalities, not the flareups, not the friction? More light less heat?
I vote that Kat has the coooooolllest cell-phone.
Oh wait...we're not on that one.
Six months! It is the only right answer (henceforth, the Jesse approach).
Gandalfe, I don't recall you ever being told you couldn't do something because you weren't there. I believe one person, upset at the trend and tone of the conversation, made a remark that was never intended to be taken seriously.
As for the consequences, I don't see that as a problem. If you bring it up, you'll be directed to the post where the decision was publicized. If you continue to bring it up, most likely people will ignore you because they don't want to talk about it anymore. The more you bring it up, the greater number of people who ignore. That's just the way people are.
edited to add: That's the way I am. If it's been asked and answered, answered again, then I ignore if it's asked again and again. YMMV.
6 months
is
the only right answer. And see how well it worked for her? 8 people short.
Okay, secret voting confession time:
I too was a cult of the verity of only 50 people. But I knew people would be voting for numbers far lower than 50. So in order to achieve fiftyosity, I felt compelled to vote for something higher than 50. I deviated from my true devotion to 50 in order to serve 50.
Damn.
6 months. So if we really want 6 months, then I want to see 9 months on the ballot so we end up with 6 months.

But the earlier one was math, and this one is just counting. Which I suppose is math, too, but easier math.
Anyway.
There won't be any averaging involved, so vote your conscience. Which, if your conscience is any good, will be 3.

Thank god I stuffed my conscience in a trunk months ago. Six months ago.
What are the consequences?
I'd say that that would probably be an instance where DNFtEC would work.
I still haven't decided whether I like 3 months or 6 months better. I'm leaning more towards 6 months to cut down on clutter, but more towards 3 months to allow for changes when neccesary. So I'm still reading and thinking.
t opening pandora's big ole box
Are we really going with limited choices and a straight X number of months or 6 months on a ballot? Cause if we did, I skimmed it.

Impugning my conscience's six-love will only -- well, strictly I'll still just be voting '6', but I'll be doing so in a deep, Satanic voice, and be voting for
"6, MORTAL!!"
or something like that.

How was anyone to know that it wasn't meant to be taken seriously? Honestly, when I read it, my gut reaction was to post something completely rude. I managed to channel it into a post of similar lack of content. You should be proud of me.
This is a private board with an international membership. We are not constitutionally bound to uphold the 4th Amendment.
No, but neither are we bound to not attempt to reach it. My view is simply that more discussion is better. Filter everything I say through that, and it'll all make sense. Maybe (Since I appear to be offending everyone this evening, let me mention that this is a comment on my writing ability, not anyone's comprehension.)
So choosing to poke people again and continue this implication that we ban people willy-nilly insults this community and offends me, one of its members.
No such implication was meant, I assure you. Honestly, the two comments were unrelated, and it wasn't until just this moment that I remembered the ugliness of a few days ago. It's been overwhelmed by the current ugliness.
BTW, I think that any more comments on my use of the B word will be replied to via e-mail, as we're scaring the horses. So, this is my last public word on it.
Possibly.
