Voting shmoting

I have a problem with Susan claiming that this group has voted to move
the pricelessware site.

She quoted that 51 people voted to move, 14 to stay (or something like
that)

My problem is that I refused to follow threads religiously, as much of
the posting was full of childish nonsense behaviour, and reaction to
that - as a result, I did not even realise that there was an official
vote.

A quick poll shows that this whole issue seems to have generated
literally thousands of posts - so how we could conclude that there
were less than 100 votes cast, I do not know.

Can we either agree to start again, or just let those interested in
setting up a site get on with it.

The most important thing is that this GROUP (not any website) debates,
votes on and decides what is priceless.

Where this is hosted, or how it is presented, does not really matter.

The matter is pretty much mute now anyway. Let it drop for now at
least so everyone can take a break from all of that.

Actually, the matter is moot, it definitely was *not* mute! ;) Just
teasing.
If nothing else, it now seems we'll have two "official" Pricelessware
sites.
Perhaps we have the first two states of a Pricelessware Union. :)

Yeah, but now we're going to have to fight over who gets to be the
North, and gets to be the South!

Or maybe a union site and a confederate site. Here we go again :)

Well, I for one never "vote" or otherwise participate in such petty
dumb-assed girl-who-can't-get-laid bullshit because the "ballots" never
have a "give a good Goddamn" choice. I figure the point to the whole
pointless excercise is to enable the perpetrators who, face it, must
lead really pitifull little lives, to go to bed at least once with the
feeling of actually having _done_ something that day and I don't want to
give them the pleasure or satisfuckingfaction because for my part of the
whole circle-jerk they can just go someplace out of the way and die.
What I really really would like to know is how the arrange/organize
their lives so as to have so much "free" time to spend niggling, whining
and grousing about such purely petty and completely pointless utter
equine hockey.

What - you mean like you're pissing and whingeing right now?
What a fine example you're setting, grizzleguts.

Yep; dragged your sorry ass out from under its rock, didn't it?

He always may be a bad example.

How adult of you.

Nope. My ass has always been in the open and has nothing to be sorry for
or about.
...and the killfile is just a click away.
Please, make that click. It would be the ultimate admission of your
defeat. (I'd bet you won't)

Thank you.
For what, pointing out your hypocrisy? A pleasure.

You're absolutely right Alastair!
