My apologies Nagoya, I did not mean to "erase you from existence", I just got caught up in talking to Daud and forgot you had chimed in.
Now that there are a whole two of you who sincerely believe that having names sit unused for(literally) years at a time > people actually using them to play a game ... I guess I can't use the word "freak" anymore (which, to be clear Daud, was meant in the "freak storm" sense, not the "you're a freak for your beliefs" sense ... because I previously believed you to be a lone outlier ... not as name calling).

Yeah, ok.
Anyways, I really, really don't like calling out a bunch of posters by name and playing the quote game since I don't entirely speak for them, maybe there's more to their opinion than what they wrote. I am not going to debate these people's words for them, if they want to clarify further then can. But I will point this out: there are lots of people who recognize that there are people against this, because most others at least using words like "compromise" and "debate" in their posts before I showed up. In contrast, you seem to be the only one actually trying to claim (now almost) complete consensus. And let's not forget the only way you want to claim that there are very few people against it based on comments:
You just don't count the poll in a poll thread. I'm not going to let that go because that's a shitty thing to do, and here's why.
1. OP didn't make it clear that your opinion in the poll wasn't gonna count for anything if they didn't post. Applying that standard, solely against people you disagree with, absolutely
reeks of bias. I simply cannot understand someone as logical as you doesn't just immediately see this.
2. The poll had 2 options:
a. Things stay the same. What else is there to talk about? Why does anyone need to do anything more than vote? It's pretty simple and straightforward. I don't blame people not wanting to dive into this trainwreck just to have to have people keep defending a simple opinion ad nauseam to people.
b. In favor of some kind of rename or delete. This is something you an actually discuss, if you're open to renaming/deleting, you can post what levels you think, naked, account age, last login, playtime, etc etc, so
of course there is going to be more discussion about it.
I don't like the way OP worded the poll or the post, but I'm not going to just throw away all those opinions because you, what, think they're all trolls? Because no one besides me and a couple other people are willing to write multiple paragraphs and posts exhaustively explaining over and over and over in every single detailed possible way when it was never more complex than "I don't think there's a problem getting names and I don't like taking things away from people based on a feeling so I'm against it"? God damn, dude, I just gave an opinion and it's like defending a fuckin PHD thesis with you.
