    Lightbulb Threadbanning: There will be a new poll soon

    It's been a long time since our last threadban poll, and I said at the time we might revisit the issue in the future. Many people that previously voted for it are no longer here. So we will be having another vote soon.

    The first order of business is that we are constructing a list of active/longtime posters for those that are allowed to participate in the vote. Very new accounts (roughly under 2 months) or older accounts that haven't posted very much (roughly only a couple of hundred posts), OR older accounts that haven't been around forever will likely not be allowed to participate. This poll is only for active members as that is who this feature ultimately affects.

    Current Criteria for eligibility to vote:

    - Be signed up in April 2017 or before
    - Have an active post history.
    - Exceptions might be made, on a case by case basis.
    - I have already made an exception or two on this list, based on post activity.

    This list isn't about who is nice and agreeable. It's a list of active users, that's it.

    The Current list of able participants is as follows:
    (note: those that have multiple accounts/change names, your "proper name" is the one on the list)

    If you are not on this list, it doesn't mean you are not allowed. I might have just missed you. The list was constructed by going to lots of popular threads and slowly finding the usual suspects. Before complaining, make sure that you look for your proper name. I.e. watermark is currently named 'Fuck Populists' but he's listed as watermark on this list.

    Post in this thread if you want to be able to vote on this issue. The actual poll will be sometime in the next couple of weeks.

    This thread is not for arguing about the threadban issue. So keep that somewhere else.

    ok just to clarify, I'm more interested in those that aren't currently on the list but qualify.

    Woot! I can vote!
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    You're the number one reason why banning will stay.
