By the way, I like the changes.


Oh, and I thought since the usual meaning of a poll -- a survey of opinion -- has little to do with selecting from a list of biased statements, maybe Cav was thinking of one of the alternate meanings.

Poll (n) -- secondary definitions

3.The head, especially the top of the head where hair grows

4. The blunt or broad end of a tool such as a hammer or ax.

Does that help understand what's going on?
Maturity is knowing that I've been an idiot in the past.
Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

Why not include the current setting as an option if you wana have a serious poll.

Might as well drop this thread and that poll since its not objective and will not provide a result that displays what the community really wants due to lack of serious options.

Edit: Yes I do like the new settings and think that is the way the game should be set up.

lol, i wonder if the guy who started this is against the changes, because as of right now his poll supports the changes.

lol

you should have locked the thread if you didn't want posts.  or perhaps realized that it didn't matter if people posted in your thread before telling them not to knowing full well they would.

so we are agreed?  

the changes are great.

Notice if you vote for anything but the choice cav wants it just hangs up?

The "poll" proves that you can't trust a bitter person to run a poll

A bitter person?  What the hell are you talking about...Get your head out of your *** and actually read the choices....EW/MW/LW only (CURRENT)....Old MA, and combo of EW/MW/LW + MA....What else could you possibly add since these have been the three arenas  of discussion in the nearly 900 posts on the topic....

I dont care if this poll influences HTC...I just wanted to see where the community stands...  Yes, I voted in favor of the combo - EW/MW/LW + old MA...  I dont see how im throwing this fit that some of you have manifested in your minds though...I dont care...Read some of my other posts.  I say if a poll is taken, and this is what most people agree with, then I will roll with it...

And on another note...  A lot of you guys are real jerks...Real immature...  I could have given this poll to a class of freshmen high school students...5th graders...pre schoolers, and I would have had more people just simply vote and follow the rules...Flame me all you want, but your the one who looks like a complete idiot...

Guess I had too much faith in this community...Although I didnt know any faith was needed in a community, for such a simple request that a five year old could follow better than the grown men who have replied....

welll admitedly it isn't like one of the old beetle "polls" where he would ask...  "Do you think guns should be freely handed out in prisons, insane asylums  and pre schools"   Or... Do you think that most guns should be restricted.

He would then go on to say (often months later) that his "poll" showed that most Americans felt that most guns should be restricted.

The only thing wrong with your poll is that you have an agenda and you are running the results.

Agenda??????????????????  DID YOU NOT READ THE POLL?  There is an option for the three set ups most openly discussed in the threads the past couple days...There is no bias to any of the responses...What is it that makes you think there is?

I am running the results?  Hey laz...I told you I was in favor of getting the old MA back one way or another...Whether it is a combo of the new and old, or just bringing back the old...Right now the voters prefer keeping the set up as is...But your right laz...Im running the results...Maybe take a look at the results before you make a head up your *** acquisition...

Asking people if they would prefer the old MA, after it's been said that the old MA was a problem, and is gone, and that it won't be back so that habits will be broken, is ****ing pointless. Ranting and raving because we didn't take your idiotic poll seriously doesn't exactly make us the bad guys.
