Yes Aussie. The members have given their feedback on how strict they think we should be.


So.....what changes do you have in mind now, Effendi?

None, as a result of the feedback anyway. It looks like an almost exactly even split.

Did you not notice the 10 votes for 'do it differently?'

How about you Poll those, and ask them something specific?

.....and only FIVE want things to stay as they are.

So you keep saying Aussie, but you are yet to make a point. Even if 100% of respondents wanted a change, it would not be a mandate for change if they had mutually exclusive views on what the change should be.

Correct Effendi.  We agree.

So what was the point of you, the Owner here, commencing this Thread/Poll if it was not to have any impact whatsoever?

It works.  I changed my vote from "more strict" (shouldn't that be "stricter"?) to "undecided", in other words "fence sitting" or "swaying in the breeze".  Wink


'More strict' is better English as spoken by the more educated middle classes.

And that should be 'swinging in the breeze'.

Why just to me?  42 of your Members co-operated with you in this Thread/Poll.  Where to from here?  Does anything change even though only five of them want to keep things as they are?

Aussie, none of those 42 others need this explained to them. There will be no action because the outcome was split so evenly, not because the poll was pointless. If it makes you feel better, the result did have an 'impact' because it corrected a misconception I had that there was strong support for a certain change. This poll was not the start of a committee, it was just a poll to get some feedback.

Last from me, Effendi.  Five members want things to stay as they are and you are smart enough to just ignore that.

Cheers.

That's SIX now. As a conservative, I usually vote for the status quo

Know the enemies of a civil society by their public behaviour, by their fraudulent claim to be liberal-progressive, by their propensity to lie and, above all, by their attachment to authoritarianism.
