Because, I want to close my poll at midnight, this is my poll, and I do not bend down to serve your needs. If you dont like it, I would be happy not to hear from you again.

Personal apologies in my direct messages, and people have essentially realized they were wrong about their judgement.

Keep digging a deeper hole, ok.

I see, personal apologies. Why would they not post their apologies here then?

Because there aren't any in the threads... in fact, there were just people who were trying to support you that you shot down with accusations.

I have 12 PMs thanking me for finding those forum links, do you believe that?

Considering your tactics in the past, I simply do not believe you.

That's fine and dandy, but you're going to run into the same problem again. Don't complain when it happens.

If you read the intro to every "Who are you supporting" poll, it will say the polls close at midnight.
understood

No, because I say it closes at midnight.

Not every body will be like you and say "well, in the intro of the thread, it says it closes at midnight, so what time does it close?"

I apologized for that 150 times!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give it a rest. We are talking about you being unethical now. Until you apologize, the spotlight is on you.

We? Do you have a mouse in your pocket?

If anyone else thinks I'm being "unethical" besides ocexpo, feel free to let me know. There is no "spotlight" here, except the one that was turned on your unethical poll practices this morning.

I will not be apologizing. I stand by what I said in all posts.

Good.

Your right. I spent an hour making graphs, and the minute I saw another vote come in past the deadline, I should have just started over again. What was I thinking?!

Now will you promise to never visit the "Who are you supporting?" polls in the future? You seem to hate them so much and think I am such an unethical piece of **** so I think it would be best if you just did not vote or come back. I really would like it if you would promise to never return.

I have just as much right to post in any thread as anyone else.

If I see something I believe to be unethical, I will point it out, like I did this morning. I'll consider this back and forth closed, but if a statement is made to me, I will respond.
