I voted 'No' as well. Aside from the (IMO) very small chance of microbial life on other planets, I do believe we're alone

Thank you for voicing your opinion, Michael. We are discussing some changes to the CGs to clarify this issue

Yes, I see this part of English misused a lot Thank you for pointing it out Timmy. To clarify, "It's" is used a lot more than "Its" is. There aren't a whole lot of proper uses for "Its" (at least compared to "It's). I think a lot of people, especially people who "tyep liek this" just are too lazy to add an apostrophe to "It's".

Quite infamous indeed. While I didn't deem it "porn", I believe it was inappropriate, as Akya said. Good point, Michael. What I am trying to do is to keep the community "G-rated", since we have a good number of young (under 13) people here. I have considered it And, I have removed some pictures there to be sure. Unfortunately, perhaps Section 3.7 should be detailed further, as there was not one exact rule that was broken. However, I have discussed the goal of keeping the community G-rated with various members of the team and we were in agreement. I am not trying be the "censor police", but rather trying to keep everything here fine enough for say, my little sister (Uppy's age) to see.

This is my reasoning. Thanks for putting it into words, SoggyFrog! BTW - I removed the picture *before* I saw Uppy's comment. I posted after I removed it. (Note that I said "I removed" in the past tense) Anyway, back on topic

Yes, but there is only so much you can put on a reasonably-sized button. The tooltip does say "View results, but forfeit your vote in this poll", but many people probably don't notice the tooltip. (I didn't until just now )

My thoughts exactly Uppy; I removed the picture. Very well said. I agree with you 100%!

Post #5201 here

I think it is done on purpose, but I could be wrong. I've always thought that it is done that way so people will vote what they really think, not what they see others voting for.

I can't stand Coke 99% of what I drink is water. I couldn't live without the computer either - 'tis truly my passion. Although, I might be able to survive for a little while writing things... writing is my second passion

Speaking of computer names, most/all of mine are Bible names. My computer is "Ishmael", my brother's is "Joseph", my Dad's is "Abraham", and so on.

There is a limit of 5 or so rep changes per day, so I don't think "rep spamming" would be a problem. Good sugustion, Erik.

Good point

Some of them may get confusing (is an "Ancient" higher than a "Legend"? And so forth..), but looks good overall.

Welcome, Frank! I too hope you have a good time here.

Great job Randy, been noticing you were getting close to the big 10,000

You beat me to pointing this out, Erik

You mean people who have just recently signed up? Yes, that would be neat... maybe something Tim can install when he has time (as it involves messing with the PHP source).

The flood control is only active for 10-20 seconds (if I remember right) and is designed to keep people from spamming... although I admit, it does interfere with some forum games What exactly would you want changed?

Ugh (ditto what Erik said)

I'd make them all clean up their act, LOL IMO, even "kid's movies" nowadays have questionable material in them. Other than that, I'd make some great action movies

Wow, neat pics Desmond! We actually didn't go "firework-hunting" this year, just stayed in and had a nice birthday celebration for my younger sister - her birthday is on the 4th!

If it's a voice conversation, one. It gets hard listening to two people at once Now, if we are talking about text conversations (i.e. IM'ing), I can carry on 5+ easily, provided I'm not trying to get anything useful done

Yay, post #5100!

Yeah, probably a server "blip" or something of the sort. Nothing serious
