Shrugging... I am not much interested in Council Elections, though I have taken part in at least one of them. Making the elections visible - like, 'political' debates on TMO during the elections - might be helpful in getting more voters.

Can anybody tell significance of the date?

Well, here is one...
Best regards.

Well I don't think you got my point...I know karma is used for the elections...

What I mean is that when only 230 members even bothered to vote for Council Elections; for someone to proclaim that since TMO has 65k+ registered members, the results we get from this poll would be insignificant isn't right...

As you posted the link of current online users you can see only 144 registered members are online instead of the high numbers you may expect for a forum with 65k+ registered members...I mean hence, you can't discredit the poll that was put up here due to a small proportion of people voting from the amount of registered voters just as you don't discredit the Council Elections for only having 230 voters voting...

I am just wondering aloud why is it whenever somebody who hasn't been here for a long time proposes something for the community is he put away instead of being encouraged? Why is there this old vs new divide that is very visible from the amount of smart-a** posts put out by those old members especially against those who are not in agreement with them or those who are introducing something new?
