so you gotta let me know...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

should i stay or should i go?

it has lately come to my attention that more than a few of my fellow heartlanders are coming to view my contributions as tedious, tiresome and, to be blunt, rather unnecessary.

i, for my part, have recently found the continual rounds of greetings, birthday wishes and general self-congratulating back-slapping at the expense of wit, debate and intelligent conversation stifling, monotonous and depressing.

to this end i offer you all a once only, never to be repeated opportunity to decide my fate. cast your vote at any time during the next seven days and, depending on the result, i shall either fall upon my (virtual) sword or re-enter the fray refreshed and revitalised.

in order that you may not be unduly influenced in either direction i shall take a hiatus from posting for the duration of the contest...

And this poll isn't? :innocent:

Disappointed the possible answers are limited and there's no 'burn him, he's a witch' option. Just a thought.
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,
Which is quite understandable.

I'd call that an overwhelming vote of confidence. Just like in the good old days, when Saddam would get 102.3% in elections.

Well, Mr James. It would appear 2 people want rid of you.
You're far too entertaining to voto off in a Pop Idol/Celebrity Get me outta here type way. Do you want us to say "Oh please don't go Richey?"

this poll is wank . RJ I hear what you're saying and I sort of agree.

..but unless we're all really busy all the time, then I think the statistics speak for themselves. People are getting fed up of banal threads, petty sniping, even in jest, sihte grammar, epigrams just to appear clever.

So, yeah I couldn't give a flying f**k whether you stay or go... you tease, tease tease.

But I've been thinking the same thoughts ( specially the one about the banana and whipped cream ) I digress.

my advice, don't think twice.....

have a rest for a while, if it's still not to your likeing stay away. That's what I'm gonna do.

I voted 'go' solely because I'd like to see SG bitch slap him. But if you two can work out a way where RJ stays and still gets smacked upside the head, I'd be happy to change my vote.

Have things really sunk to this level? A poll to decide whether a member stays or leaves? F**king hell!
You should all be ashamed of yourselves. :|

@ Quiffy - please get rid of this ridiculous poll thing. It's the one aspect of this board that really irritates me. :evil:
It is driving people away IMHO. And no I don't want to see another poll to decide if we should have polls or not... :roll:

Mmmmm...I usually ignore the polls anyway, but I'm *already* bored waiting for a lift so what the heck...

I reckon you should stay RJ. There's nowt wrong with a bit of 'tedious, tiresome & unnecessary' & your pedantry is a thing of true beauty.
