If I posted it, it will work. :-)

@OP See that thread for the poll making, and you might want to check out the guide to forum features (see my sig) for more.

I have learned my lesson. I don't sleep because the forums panic when I am away.

Yes - quite amusing wasn't it although I haven't seen any posts by him since or his mate come to think of it :D

and how long before this thread mysteriously morphs into one about politics/religion/sexism and gets moved

HAHAHA I like it here!
You ask a simple question like a y/n or something similar and
you get an amount of gossip and other stuff along with the answer! :grin:

Oh yea - never saw that - but then it was the first time I saw the page, just knew where the information was and got it for him.

and how long before this thread mysteriously morphs into one about politics/religion/sexism and gets moved

and it might have morphed if it hadn't been moved here


At least I hope that's what you're talking about and Ohio

It seems to be on every closed thread. Reported to admins.

(ubuntu-geek just fixed a bug in the same area, seems to have opened up another...)

LMAO - I didn't notice that the

You cannot alter a poll, so think about it before hand!

was bold in your thread/post - I thought he was pointing it out to me as I was trying to get the op to change his male/female poll :D

So it's a race now is it - to add ridiculous comments to the bottom of closed threads and stickies using this name
