Should the forum be renamed?

I think the name of a place on the outside, ought to reflect what goes on inside. Truth in advertisement, ya know? Since this hasn't been the case as of late, i thought perhaps the forum should undergo a name change.

I voted Angry Ole Goats Who Stare at Polls. I also fully admit to being responsible for some of that angry discussion.

In seriousness, the political rancor tends to be seasonal. With the US election cycle over for time being, the number of political topics should decline in the coming days.

There is a current anomaly in that trend, I think you know what I mean.

Yes I do.

In the case of said anomaly, we are in the driver's seat. A topic that no one responds to sinks very quickly on this board. I must be especially disciplined in that regard, as I am a frequent target.

Well, there was a point in this poll, but i (mistakenly?) figured, people would get the veiled "hint" behind it.

edit:
BTW, i voted for all of the above. I thought, "Dumbo's whinery" and Eeyoree's cryier" were some nice touch's though. (and yeah, im just as guilty as the usual suspects for responding to "poll tick" threads at all.

Perhaps we should have a public resolution not to feed the trolls?

If we don't respond, the troll thread quickly goes to page 2 to be forgotten.

We have the technology, we have the power, do we have the resolve?
