	Can somebody please explain to me where the "spam" is in this poll? Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

It had a serious point - I wanted to see if people thought Afghan lives were worth less than Americans or others.

That's a pertinent issue, and there was no spam in the replies. Its actually a more difficult issue than it looks.

Its about time you appointed some non-American moderators - they are far too partisan now and prone to censorship. I suspect Ming was afraid at how some of his countrymen might vote or comment. That sucks.

	Increase Your PM Length

Certainly Lancer's thread is more spammish, yes?

Let's take a look at your "serious" point... Here are the choices in your poll.

quote: No, all lives are of equal value No, but a life from my country is more valuable than either an Afghan or an American Yes, of course American lives are more valuable than those people, we're an advanced Christian country, loved by God Yes, we're number one and we have the weapons to prove it USA! USA! USA! I don't know, I'll get back to you shortly, can I phone a friend?

Serious???? HA HA HA HA.
SPAM... YEP!

Thanks for pointing that thread out Orange... I hadn't seen it yet.
Now, it suffered the same fate as AH's thread.

	What's wrong with it Ming? Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

The choices all go to the reasons why people might not think lives are of equal value.

You are just showing your bias and I think you were afraid of what the results might show.

That's really bad moderating but I know you won't reconsider so another good thread goes down the tubes

What... lossing your ability to troll...

If I was as "biased" as you suggest... I would close every Anti American thread ( and lord knows there are enough of them)

But no, they are still there, while yours is closed, because yours was spam.

Without the poll, it might have been a serious thread. Plus, that subject has already been done before, and it was never closed.

So cram it horsey, do your trolling and spamming over at ACOL... I thought you weren't coming back here.

It wasn't a troll - a clear example of your bias right there in that comment.

quote: If I was as "biased" as you suggest... I would close every Anti American thread ( and lord knows there are enough of them)

Er how was it anti-American? That's a telling comment on your bias again. There were 3 pro American voting options and no anti-American comments or options. I was careful not to put in anti-American options, I thought of a few.

quote: But no, they are still there, while yours is closed, because yours was spam.

You still haven't pointed out where the spam was - that's because there wasn't any!

quote: Without the poll, it might have been a serious thread.

Without the poll the thread would be pointless.

quote: Plus, that subject has already been done before, and it was never closed.

Er, when was a poll on this subject done before?

quote: So cram it horsey, do your trolling and spamming over at ACOL... I thought you weren't coming back here.

That's the way - if you can't win the argument, play the man and not the ball. And when did I ever say I was not coming back here?

I think you just closed it because its a controversial subject. That's pathetic.

Yeah... pathetic is your poor attempts to troll. You've gotten enough free posts on this subject.
