Return to the old system for decisions on this site?

The system that only counts posts with opinions in the proposal thread as votes is useless, and has CONSISTENTLY worked in the favor of the person who initiated that change to begin with. Under the system where the polls were what was counted, there was much more variation in the type of results.

As such, I push forward a proposal to abolish the new voting system and restore a poll-based one. The poll on this issue will run for two weeks. Kenzu, I will refuse to acknowledge you using the system this thread seeks to abolish to decide the issue. Let the poll returns decide.

I like the old one too, but the problem with it was people kept multi accounting and voting for the same person more than once.

Twas corrupt as Liche pointed out, hell for all we know someone could win a poll all by himself with all his accounts.

That's why I limited access to the site in the first place.

Poll's half-over, come on everyone, vote on this...

How do you know that? You're not a forum moderator, so you can't see people's IP numbers.

I am for open voting. People who just joined shouldn't be allowed to vote. Especially those who have registered, JUST to add one more vote to the basic account.


Your poll, by the way, is unclear.
"Should the polls be what matter?"
What does that have to mean? I don't know.

PS: Do you want me to help it with a couple of votes to show you why it's a bad idea?

I agree with you on not allowing brand new members to vote. The poll's question should be clearer, I admit.
