Just to see the numbers... (General Chat Poll)

[Warrior4ever]

I know the removal of General chat has been in discussion quite frequently lately, but I've seen multiple conflicting responses. I just want to know, straight out, and since numbers don't lie I decided to make this quick little poll. Post your opinions as well if you'd like too, but I'll mostly be watching the poll.

A poll is a good idea, but unfortuantely... I don't think it's going to get much attention here. :\ Hopefully a mod or admin will make a poll in News/Updates so that more people will see it. But that's only the people who visit the forums regularly? How will people who only play in-game know about it? And surely it affects them too.

-sigh- Good idea, though! ^^'

It seems to have gotten more attention since whichever nice mod edited it to say General Chat Poll, but I see why it wouldn't get much attention as is. (Whoever modded the post, +floof if I ever find out ^^)

I saw BigSkippy looking at this thread earlier, just to tell ya. But it seems that it was Suragaha, because it says the one who last edited was her.
And I don't remember what I voted a while ago... huh.

[Warrior4ever]

Oh yesh...excuse me while I go find one of Lord's posts for a +floof ;3 (I knew there was a last edited by spot somewhere, just forgot where it was. Got it now ^^)

Why not try to advertise it in the game itself? It's true that not many will be able to notice this as they mostly stay in-game, and even if they check the forums they're probably most likely only going to notice and read the RIP General thread, but if people are pointing it out in the game then it's sure to get more attention ^.^

Especially those who really want General back will come on and vote. It should be an easy and simple task, too, if we find the "General Protesters" with their green-characters and tell them about it, and they'll likely spread the word even more. Just hopefully in this way it'll be handled much more effectively and maturely. 

I would love to do so myself, but I had trouble logging on in the public maps before this happened (I've always spent my time in my pack's private maps for ages now). If I tried logging on now, it might just fry my computer >.< (probably exaggerating, but I wouldn't be surprised if it happened)

Hey, Katsa! Long time no see!~

You're right, if we want more people to vote, we'll have to advertise it somehow. But I bet what'll happen if we advertise it in game, people will only latch on our backs for our opinion and support (or unsupport if you could call it that xD). Oh well, if you want an opinion, be prepared to defend it, eh?

Well I had signed it. I really do not care that general is gone because I have no use to it, but others did had some use to it... I'll even admit that chat did actually helped me find some decent rps.

Hey there Wolfie! 8D Nice to hear from you again!

Yeah, that crossed my mind, but as you said, defending your opinion haha. Plus, all that really needs to be mentioned is that there's a poll, no need to say "Vote for General coming back!" or "Vote for keeping General down!", or anything of the like. It's also really a matter of ignoring insults and shoves, all they are are words on a screen and all that matters is getting those who want to vote to hear and direct them to the location of the poll :3
