He's already decided and doesn't want any more input.

[enwiabe]

Nope, I want constructive input. Toothpick just loves to rebel. Seriously, this is just another one of her attention grabs.

enwiabe: how about you look at the votes rather than jump to conclusions?

[enwiabe]

Well, when I initially put it to people in IRC and on MSN, the reaction was mixed with more people liking it than disliking it. I think two things have happened.

1) People have been swayed by popular opinion
2) People were lying in order to save the person who made it any grief

prav....... dont get shitty at us

and btw enwiabe you dont have to constantly justify yourself, people get tired of it and think u r an egotistical idiot, it doesnt hurt to let go of past decisions and agree with other people's ideas even tho it's against urs
if worst come to worst and it turned out wrong, THEN sholve crap in their face, dont just assume they're no good

I actually think it's really rude and mean the way people like Costa (though I wouldn't expect much tact from him) and Toothpick have gone about this public humiliation of Prav. But, you know, it just speaks volumes about their (lack of) character.

[Collin Li]

Nice twist enwiabe, but remember that you're the person who accused Toothpick of being an attention seeker.

[enwiabe]

It's not a twist. Toothpick holding a public poll where everyone rains shit on Prav? Costa doing a fake logo mocking Prav's creation? I don't think it's right.

[Collin Li]

Sorry, but the poll was not worded "who thinks Prav's logo is shit?" I bet most of the voters didn't even know who made it.

They just don't like the logo, alright?

So you also think the logo is a public humiliation?

Now you try to make it out as we're attacking Prav. We're not, it's feedback on the logo and not the creator of the logo.

But you know. You're the admin, abuse your power all you want.

[Collin Li]

Yes, enwiabe is setting up a straw-man here. We are attacking the logo, not Prav. Don't use him as your human shield.

[enwiabe]

Subtle? It was mockery, pure and simple. Collin, people had been voicing their discontent in the main thread. That's fine, and I welcomed that input, but what Toothpick did was see that people didnt' like it and turned it into a public showing of humiliation for Prav. How do you think he's going to feel when he logs on to see that 90% of people disliked the logo he spent hours on? Nice work, Toothpick.

[Collin Li]

You continue to ignore that this poll is about the logo, and not about Prav.

This poll is a challenge to your claim that "everyone else" liked it. It seems fair to me.
