    I think your post was really snarky to be honest. Singling out individual forum members for others to poll and comment on is a pretty dicey thing to do in my book. While Tricky might be fine with it, and I'm far too used to ridicule and snark on here to be bothered by it. If the forum members concerned were newer and less experienced or even new forum members.. you could've upset someone greatly just to get a few cheap laughs at someone else's expense.

    It all seems so stupid it makes me want to give up.
    But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid ?

    Do you think the selection was accidental ?


    Also do you at least see a little irony in your lack of adherence to the will of the people

    How is anyone supposed to know that ? You took a risk that the two people named would take the whole thing in good part. Things don't always work out that way online, certainly when you do not know the people in question. Anyway, just being honest I'm not going to make any more of it.

    No. I'm on a money saving forum, not running a political party. The only people who's will counts re my posting here are the moderators. ;)

    There are no moderators.:)

    Why isn't the forum moderated?

    There are thousands of posts made on the forum every day, it would be impossible for someone to read them all. Also, if we were to read and approve every post, we might become responsible for any unlawful information within those posts.
