Exclamation A poll to end all polls

Due to some late night research, I found the majority of people here at SYM would like to see this place cleaned up. NO I will not publish my results! So don't ask.

The question I ask the subjects of my test was....

"Do you find the quality of post at SYM has degraded this once fine forum?"


As the ones who took part in this test can tell you, that is if they could, they agree the fine forum is in dire need of help.


So today I come before you and ask for your help in fixing this once fine example to the internet world.

Please stat your ideas on how to make this the place it once was.

Before I reply, I feel I must enquire about what I should reply to

1. Clean up from what? Vermin of Weasel-type

2. Degraded? How? Could it possibly have become worse than the madhouse it formely was?

Suggested solution: Nude pictures of all the mods?

Great questions

1. Even thought the Vermin of Weasel-type is a Small problem I was think more on a wider scale. (A little later I will explain in more detail.)

2. This is a trick question and I refuse to answer on the grounds it Would incriminate me.

Your solution .. http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif sounds fine to a point...http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif but from my personal stand point I care not to see the male moderators nude.http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif

Cleaning the place of vermin sounds like a lovely idea
Agreed, it's actually tamer than it was
Not a good idea

It might work even without you, T' - imagine the shock treatment nude pictures of Fable, Sleep and Buck would provide And remember @Weasel, we don't really know whether Buck is male or female

i haven't been around for long, but i think the best this forum was was right after the 9/11 attack when there was a lot of good debates, strong opinions and sincere ideas. i think the only reason that there isn't as much good stuff is simply because there is nothing good to talk about, the only way to clean up the forum is if somebody did something newsworthy that would be worth debate. come one weasel, you can take over the world.

As much as this sounds like a great idea,, I believe we all are focusing in the wrong direction.http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif I believe a good old Buck Satan deleting tour is the most needed cure at the moment. http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif This would lead (according to my research) to a revival of the less tamer times.http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif And even though I agree some of CE idea wasn't that good, I'm willing to try it on a trial bases....(ONLY if Ms. T is the vic..I mean the mod in question. http://forums.civfanatics.com/images.../satanlook.gif


@CE, until Buck postes a picture in the thread...I will not take any chances.

Something new and improved.

Buck gives me the power to delete the old "unused" threads so the speed and "quality" of the board improves.

LMFAO I need to add this to the other thread. Who would be Evil enough to start a poll about one subject and once most have given their opinion...change the topic.

"a poll to end all polls"
does this mean that there will be no more polls on the board? (and what a big loss that would be )

That was to just drag attention away from other threads...(Wait ....that might be seen as being evil )


Yes, in my noble goal, I plan to stop all polls on the board as well.
