I'm trying to install a file viewer that works on Linux which is a tough task itself.

We can post in the staff room...that's pretty much it.

We have no real power, we can't edit posts, lock threads, move thread...etc.

If you can't find a programme that works (CDisplay doesn't I assume? That's what I use?)

just rename cbr to .rar and cbz to .zip...you'll have to look at each picture in turn though then.

I think resigning your founder status is a little extreme Eighty, I think it's obvious to nearly everyone that some of the votes were done to make the result as close/tight as possible.

We should set up a new poll & ask people to just vote on the issue instead of playing silly buggers.


Don't bother with another poll and mod him already.

I have no problem with that, others will though. (especially the one who voted no for real reasons)

Don't do that. That's a bit extreme.


Seems a little bit gay if you ask me. If you loose the poll, you loose the poll. I doubt it would of ever affected anything anyway.

That seems like a very "Emo" thing to say where as if people don't vote yes, you'll have some kind of hissy fit and give up on life.

Clever psychology aside ;) I don't think Eighty should no longer be a founder, I think that would be a genuine loss. I mean what the hell have I got going if Eighty isn't a founder? He's done miles more than I have for this community now and in years past.

It's obvious that this poll hasn't been taken seriously by everyone. Maybe a new renewed poll would be a good idea. If people really care that much then they would vote again but this is coming off as a bit of a farce if you ask, even though I do respect that plenty of the noes are probably legit.

This isn't parliament, it's a games forum. I don't think anyone takes it that seriously, surely? Except maybe tnman. ;) (I always let him off because of the Midnight Thread though.)

Surely a flurry of late alt. accounts could settle this either way?

It looks like an average number of new members today as there has been the last few days.

Oh god no.

I post here to get away from the responsibility of work. Where would I run to if I had to be responsible here?

Also I'd be shite :P
