Recently ended poll results are in.
Now that the war has begun:
Criticism Is Okay – votes: 60 (80.00%) – 1.4 votes per day
Criticism is Not Okay – votes: 15 (20.00%) – 0.4 votes per day
I’ve decided not to activate comments within the poll themselves, even though it would be a relatively easy thing to do. I have given this matter a lot of thought as many of you have asked me to enable comments in the voting. Many of you wish to explain why you voted the way that you did for a particular poll and I can understand that. However, these aren’t what you would call the most objective and empirical data collection mechanisms. They are simply straw polls meant to reflect popular opinion about a given subject. To me, comments will sway outcomes. It’s just that simple.
I’d rather have a rational discussion here then while the poll is current and being actively voted upon. That’s not to mean that another post here or, a comment within a post, won’t sway opinion. But, at that point paxtonland is like any other place where you can read an opinion… I’d rather not have those opinions connected with voting until the poll is finished.
So, feel free to discuss your vote in the comments.
