No, I'm sorry....I don't really "get it". Maybe you can re-explain it to me.

The poll you suggest, will have exactly the same utility as the "ban esty" poll did, which is to say.....no value at all.

Also, you mentioned in your first post that "most of us" were sick of Al using the FAQ board as an advertising medium. Your last post mentions asking FAQ'ers if they are "sick of all this".

Those are two entirely different questions since I think "all this" refers to the flame wars. I would guess the majority would answer the the first in the negative sense and the second, in the positive sense.

I'm sorry that you felt Al was taking advantage of the board by mentioning his business. I didn't feel that way, nor do I feel about that way about the frequent posters in the FAQ FS section. I do know that if I recreated a NLA stock part, I know I'd be promoting the heck out of it on the FAQ board. I suppose any sort of advertising is going to bring out opinions on both sides.

He did give away products as door prizes at various West Coast events and that's a form of advertising and also, expenditure.

I don't think it was the original posts that ultimately got Al into hot water though.

But you know, to each their own......it's cool.
