Why battle, why only 2 sexes, what this has to do with the reefing, and this is the wrong way to get a a representative count: you get count of the people, having a lot of time in their hands to discuss the non-constructive (say, not helpful for a reef) topics, attracted by a word of "battle" (more of petty lady-dogging, you know what I mean), and subtle suggesting that participation means winning - why are we kidding?
Sorry, had exactly this kind of day - too much even for me.
-Well, yes, the word "battle" probably was to sell the post a bit.
-Why only 2 sexes?.. I thought about that.. but... sorry, take up the politically correct nature of M/F forms in another forum... or should we have a vote re-count?
-I realize this count isn't representative of all reefers or nano reefers. Hence the little sentence in my first post stating "Nano Reefes,
on the Nano Forum ". If it were completely representative I would have said so. No poll i've ever heard of has been a complete census of everyone....
-petty-lady dogging? Maybe I was curious, as were some other people, I don't think this was to single anyone out. Is the cup half-full or half-empty? Half-empty it seems in your world.
I don't think this poll has taken away from people's time to respond to others with more reef related material. People will do what they want, read what they want and spend their time on what they want. Maybe if I spent 2 less minutes in the shower everyday I would have another 14 minutes a week to post on this forum....Why would we vote on nTOTM, that isn't necessarily productive either, pretty competitive in my opinion.
Anyways, I could go on and on... but I think sometimes people are a little too serious around here. For most of us this is a hobby, not work. If it's work for you to do this, then you picked a crappy hobby.
We're conversing with each other enough, I see no problem with adding a little personality to it all.
TS you had a bad day, some people enjoyed this post.
