Default You are joking surely?

What's the point of locking a post about a supposedly democratic vote about AKBAR????
I didn't have the chance to vote.
So I would vote NO DON'T LEAVE!!!!!!!!!!!
Does ANYBODY ELSE FEEL THIS WAY???
FFS.........

It was 5 with 1 abstention, why prolong the agony?

So there are only 6 people who have a say? and what agony are you talking about? It's great to see some debate, it's fun and interesting. This is idle banter after all, you don't have to read or contribute. We have other parts of the forums for the bike stuff....which are great!
Some folks feel challenged?

Please understand one thing (here goes): This is NOT a democracy. There, it's been said. Now you no longer have to worry about being part of the collective decison, cos there isn't one — don't feel bad, that's just the way it is .

(Well actually there is a reasonable degree of democracy, as the forum Admins and Moderators have their own separate and invisible part of the forum where you can be sure all decisions are debated objectively before any action is taken — with the emphasis always being on the good of the forum as a whole)

Personally, I'm surprised it took so long.

i was suprised it was locked but to be honest i think more peole would have voted for him to go than to stay.

He was on a no win situation the minute he posted it imho. But youre right in that we'll never know.

Well then fair enough.......it aint a democracy. But I think it is a bit sad that this place isn't big enough to roll with the punches and allow a little bit of free speech.
Let's spend the next millenium posting about knociking forks and cam chain tensioners in an endless cycle 'they all do that sir' type patronising responses. Good luck.
