Voted neither.

Because too many people complained about there being a lack of options, or, put another way, the option they wished to select wasn't present.

I strongly believe that people's true feelings--those who care to vote, at least--are FAR better able to be gauged this way.

Hmmm. Well, at any rate, I have to say that while I have no vested interest in this particular battle, I am greatly impressed by Scratch's integrity, and his willingness to let it all ride in a game of "chicken". I have to say that if he were to lose, and no longer post in the terrestrial forum, it would be the biggest blow to MDB in history.

I will officially state that I have selected the "Neither" option. :)

That that may well be true is both fascinating and revealing.

I've begun to realize that "Mister Scratch" probably does incarnate the essential character of this board.

I don't know that I would call Scratch THE character, but he certainly is A character, and a rather amusing one, at times.

Frankly, so is Jersey Girl....and so are you! :)

I cannot tell you how disappointing I find this statement.

Let's face it, boards are also about entertainment. Look at how fast this thread has got to nearly 338 views, and by the time I finish this post it will still be climbing. We must have some "interesting" lurkers, because there's no way it would reach that count that fast by the number of posters here.

Dan, you're wrong. The "essential character" of this board is made up of a conflict of opinions and beliefs. I would not be posting here if no Mormons posted here. I've already stated my aversion to "exmo boards", and I refuse to post on any of them, and so do many others who've expressed a similar dislike of "controlling" exmo boards.

The day the Mormons leave this board - I go with them.

Nor can I.

And, though I recognize that there are disparate voices here, the fact that "Mister Scratch" seems to gather such support among the handful of regular posters here is, I think, significant.
