Forum:Unacceptable poll behaviour


 * 

Just slapping this here.

Now I may not hold any weight with the wikia anymore, but as a founder I must say something. Maybe this has been going on for years, but now I'm older and more "mature" I can see whats going on and want to complain about.


 * Issue 1; people are making the poll personnel. Yes we get you don't like someone else, but your making it personnel.  How?
 * Calling the other side "stupid" for voting to keep ST from banment.
 * Making the pro-keeping ST side "bad guys" by undermining our votes as "just voting because we're his buddys"
 * Issue 2; using old evidence, from case that have been resolved or are irrelevant. Half the things on the "evidence against ST" list were not reasons for a 4th ban. The reason for the 4th ban was just because someone was jumping on the case to get ST banned after something else recently occurred revolving a ban.
 * Issue3; where are the admins/bureaucrats? You should be steeping in and telling people off for that, telling everyone to cool off and be mature.

Now here is the thing, this has nothing to do with that discussion, this is about the behavior of the editors within the topic. There is mudslinging and insults being tossed around. This is not about if the poll is right or if the poll is wrong, this is about stopping others from turning polls into a method of attacking others. And some sort of warnign should be released with this.

So, I want some solid rule/guidelines to proper etiquette in polls, what I don't know. Its amazing because its likely this has gone on for years unchecked, but now I'm just noticing this sort of thing is going on, and I don't like it.

Now I'm not going to say I'm perfect, I'm not going to stop anyone from having their say, but this poll is crossing the line and is at points resulting in coming close to cyber bullying. And if nothing is said, this sort of behaviour will only get worst.

We'll sort out how to take this to vote, once a discussions took place in which someoen (me or another) can form a legit solid poll. . One-Winged Hawk (talk) 20:33, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
