What Fist said.

I don't know how much weight Xar is giving this poll. But in case it's considerable, let's all vote with only one of our identities, eh? I remember someone voting as player and character once long ago. That's cheating, so don't.

By the same token
Despite our strong opinions
We lurkers don't vote

She promised not to do it again!

JK!!

Not the same token
If you want a vote, then play
For now, shut your yap

Wow...

As a former lurker who was not only welcomed, but whose suggestions, even as a nonplayer, was welcomed by the GM, that response strikes me as uncalled for.

IMHO, of course.

I think he was teasing in a good natured way.

Understood, but still
Just a tad more politeness
Might be Desired

Courtesy is like
A drink at a mountain stream
Or so it is said

Thank you, Madamada. Yes, how I said it was a joke. How often, and to whom, do I say things in that manner without it being a joke? Sheesh. IMO, jokes that are made without a or are pretty cool.

But the joking manner aside, the idea is serious. Making comments and suggestions about a game you're not playing is one thing. They might even be taken seriously, and effect the game. That's not the same as casting a vote that determines policy in a game you're not playing. This poll might help Xar determine policy. If it does, what business does someone who isn't playing have casting a vote?

We are agreed there
I said I wasn't voting
That would be cheating!

Oh for the...!!! Looks like I do owe you an apology. I thought you were objecting to the fact that you've not been invited to vote. Sorry about that.

ayeup.
Pretty much why I thought saying "shut your yap" was uncalled for.

Wait, you need a reason to tell someone to shut his (or her) yap?

What is the world coming to?

If you say so, Goat
I'm no hypocrite,
So no "shut..." request

P3, though when considering the last submittal, I've come to terms with an ending.

You've always been more of a gentleman than I, DPJ.
