They made a pole, even when the winning vote was to keep the forum the same. They changed it. TW suck but i can't insult them more or Jirki will give me another warning!
It's true though, there's no sense in asking for our opinion only to ignore it anyway. If they'd simply said "here's what we're going to do on so and so date" and then done it then that would have been less insulting.
As have already been explained in the poll thread, we made a poll to evaluate the general opinion. However, the poll was too even to be deciding on it's own, so other circumstances determined the course of action.
