You can always expect an interesting discussion when Dino enters the mix. And you better believe you're in for a beating if he disagrees with you!

P.S. I wouldn't exactly call Abe Babe active, unless I'm terribly misinformed.

I boo your thread. Booooo! Rexy isn't even on there, and everyone loves her! Fax, T-nex, and Raisin aren't there either. What a poopy poll. You heard me: Poopy!

*Activates lover loyalty* Besides, he was the one chosen for GM, so my vote isn't completely bias.

Edit(Ugh, I'm editting so much these days, annoying.): Joe, I'd just like to take this time to say, did you ever know that you're my heeero? But hey, Ann's a girl too! She'd also "bleed all over the place!"

If only they extended the limit...

Uh-huh... So what's the point of such a thread if not all active, respectable OTD members can be choices in the poll?

Call me baby cakes again, and I'll have to hurt you a bit.

Then go create a a poll WITH the missing members. I wanted to include them all, but I couldn't fit them all. I randomly picked the last few on my list. If you want to complain, go complain to the mods. They're the ones who can change the rules, not me.

It basically is another buddy-ish type thread. Only with a poll, and people can only choose one person.

My opinion is that polls that ask "who's the best?" can easily make some members feel unliked, especially when they're left out. When it's impossible to include everyone who should be, then it's best not to make a poll at all. So yeah, I agree with Super Munchy.

But hey, a people are voting, so I'll stop my complaints here.

Godlesswanderer = 0 votes

Anyway, back on topic (although ^^^ wasn't even off topic). As SM said, it's better to discuss something like this. And as Ambi said, these polls can easily make someone feel disliked. They also make it hard to choose if you can only choose one. That's one of the reasons I havn't voted or posted yet, I'm having trouble narrowing it down to one person.

It's probably not best to to a multi choice poll either. I say remove the poll (not sure if you can, I've never made a poll around here) and just discuss.

Except, replace 'best' with 'hate the most' and 'left out' with 'voted for'.

Yes, you missed me, but not just because of that, because you missed tonnes of other people as well.
And this thread is just like that other one, except in a non-working poll form.

I dislike this thread, not only because you forgot me [Ambi, I love you] and several other great veterans on that poll. There may be only 20 places but you put on Oddworldsuckscock, for gods sake. That was a wasted space.

[I know what I'm saying has already been said, but I really dislike this topic.] Take your average member. They find, to their delight that they have been put on this poll, but a few days later has recieved no votes. Said member then spirals into depression and loses all hope, never mind not posting here anymore.

Okay, so that's an over statement, but I know that if I recieved no votes I'd be very hurt and upset. It's not fair, because you only have one choice, and what happenes if you love more than one member equally?

I think this thread is unfair, and I won't vote. I like everyone here, so I couldn't imagine putting one person above the rest.

... What a shitty thread.
Yes, you missed me, but not just because of that, because you missed tonnes of other people as well.
And this thread is just like that other one, except in a non-working poll form.

Just don't.
"Awwww, they didn't include me . Waaaaaaaaah! "

Jesus man, I gave you the reason. Let's leave it at that.
