I never used to use the boards much, and only began using them recently after a long spell away from them, but now that I’m using them more, I was shocked to learn the nature of some of the polls in here, e.g. asking people to vote on wether some folk should be banned; who is the nicest etc.

I think there’s something very unhealthy and unwholesome about polls on individuals and I’m totally opposed to them.

I see that Angel-Babe has done one. Before anyone jumps on me, I will say that I am very fond of Angel-Babe, she’s a real lady and one of the nicest people on here, and I’m sure she sees no harm in her poll. Maybe there is, and maybe there isn’t, I’m just getting her out of the way as I know she would never deliberately and knowingly hurt anyone.

I’ve not done a poll, either by conducting one, or participating in one, and I would defend anyone’s right to conduct one on anything other than individuals. On principle, I won’t participate in a personal poll on another JC user, the idea of such things is repulsive to me.

If anyone wants to conduct a popularity ( or unpopularity ) contest of chatters or message board posters, let them use the regular boards. If you want to judge another JC user, do it up front on the regular boards. Don’t turn this section into a cattle market. I’m sorry to post this in here as I know it’s not intended for general postings, but I felt that as it’s aimed mainly at pollsters it would be more likely to be read here than under serious posts.

I intend to boycott personal polls, and to those who conduct them and participate in them I say;

Stick yer personal polls up yer f..king a r s es.

If anyone wants to criticise me for this post ( and some will ) then please understand that I will not use this board to respond to any replies made about my post. Anyone wishing to discuss the matter with me should do so under a new thread under serious posts or in the gossip section.

All serious replies to current affairs and serious posts please.

All flaming replies to gossip and general chit chat please.

NOTE! Please don’t do a personal poll on me as I’ve now declared my unwillingness to participate in them, and that goes equally for replies to them in here, but be warned that if you do not heed my request, I will be obliged to challenge you over it elsewhere.

I think you mean angel1, not AngelBabe

But regardless, I thought the last bit of you’re post was quality :lol:

Well it was me that posted that thread and like they say if ya dont like it dont read it, its a bit of fun ffs go out and get a sense of humour, 2 many ppl in this place take things too serious and im sure there is such thing as freeedom of speech if you dont like the poll dont vote on it simple!!

i think what peco was getting at, was that the polls don’t mean anything to anyone apart from the people involved in them, and they are very repetitive

i mean, who is the nicest person on jc? and it lists 8 people.. i am sure we have over 1000 reg users?

it just means that the more serious polls that people might want to look on and vote for, are hidded amoungst the rubbish
