Silly Title wanted, or not!

[morrison]

I'll likely edit this post pretty soon favoring more factual representation
Somewhere between 700 and 1100 more active members of 9108 registered posters. As of this post and the poll close date.
I think the response in favor of The Silly Titles is an overwhelming sentiment asking for the TITLES to be reinstated as they once were.
134 Poll responses ≈ 1.5% of the users here @ XMTS
and that is ≈ 12.5% of the more active posting members,
97 voters is ≤ ≈ ≥ 8.7% of the more active members.
Therein let's permit the poll to carry the motion based on the weight of participation.
72% in favor of "THE SILLY TITLES"

Owning/operating the Forums is not the same as being a participant. The place isn't a democracy or republic. Volunteer participation is what populates it.
The seamless operation of this place isn't relevant to the FUN FACTORS that enhance my personal experiences in this enjoyable environment.

This place has significant value for an uninformed nonkilted general public.

I felt a retraction of spirit and diminishment in the Esprit d'corps of our overall membership posts when the titles were removed.
As a more active poster I ask of you Steve and the mods, "Please bring the titles back?"

I just went over 3000 posts in about five and one half years time. Some of us would like to believe recognitions is not important, but we're wrong! Why bother to post or read regularly for several years if there is no recognition that one has committed time and thought to this forum? I HOPE we reinstate the recognition that so many of us deserve.

It's been a while, what's the call on this?

Its a good job that I have not been holding my breath whilst waiting for an answer!

Looks like the vote is pretty clear as to the wants of the community. I guess it's just a matter of time until we find out if this board is run by democracy, or not.

[BobsYourUncle]

Whatever the decision turns out to be, let's keep a positive attitude. This will remain a generous and giving community no matter what the outcome on this issue. While I voted to bring back the titles, I will continue to participate here and enjoy the friendships I have made here no matter what. Regards, BYU

I will say that the number of posts are significantly down since the changes. I play golf with a group of over 100 seniors every Tuesday morning, and have to be at the course before 7AM to set up some of the tees and other things. Thus, I usually don't check in here before I leave home ob Tuesdays. Before the changes, there would be as many as three to four hundred posts when I did check that afternoon, and close to six hundred if I waited until the next day. Now, it is usually less than 3oo by that afternoon, and maybe something just under 400 by the next morning (At the max). I've been here for going on 6 years now, and many of the old members no longer come to the forum. I can't say that it is because of all of the changes, but I'd bet that some of it is.

Has a decision been made on this yet?

Directly or indirectly some of it is...

I link it here because I saw it yesterday but didn't have time to read it fully then had a heck of a time finding it again today.
