Oh, I deleted the second poll BTW - I thought it was a mistaken doublepost.

Please turn off your CAPS LOCK NOW.

And stop swearing about a minor vBulletin bug (or "feature"), it's not the end of the world. Snover (the admin) is on vacation - and I'm not even sure if this is something he can fix without upgrading/repairing the board software. Besides, how can we be sure it wasn't user error?

Well, calm down. Reply to me angrily and I'll see that you are banned. I'm half-tempted to lock this thread. Currently, I'm rather offended by your final sentence regarding a fuckup.

What a moron you are. Perhaps you should 'go away' and come back when you've grown up a bit.

Snover & everyone else put in quite a bit of effort for nothing in return and all you can do is bitch & moan. Besides it was a stupid poll (Me and 2000 together - you clearly have no idea...) This site is an invaluable resource with lots of useful posts, a bug in a piece of code of a free forum isn't a good enough reason to throw a tantrum.

Calm down, chief!

What kind of maroon (sic) posts such a dumbass poll anyhow. Any right-thinking VOGON member knows that you are better off with a multi-boot setup!

What a probe!!! Why blame the site? Perhaps the error is 'user-originated.' Anyhow, I agree with Yanker, Why don't you install a multi-boot on your box?

There is indeed an error in the polling that I haven't been able to track down.

I suggest you employ better bbs-ware, i recommend vBulletin Version 2.2.9
- tho some of the Plebs above you may not appreciate its reliablity when compared to the inferior phpBB used here 😁
