It doesn't matter to me if araknidude or issac didn't vote for me. They could have kindly kept their thoughts to themselves as this is clearly for people who did vote for Chopik.
Wrong. Message boards are for sharing thoughts, ideas and provoking discussion among the members of the board. You're right in saying I
COULD have kept my thoughts to myself, but I wanted to address Neo's post (which was off-topic, but whatever) and I also wanted to give reasons for NOT voting. It's not exactly the point for which the topic was made (quite the opposite, actually) but if the content of the post is related to the topic's purpose in any way (in this case, you thanked for votes, and I wanted to share my reasons for NOT voting. not the topic's intent, but not off-topic, unrelated or undesired (well, maybe you found it undesirable but the content was appropriate for being in this topic)) then it is acceptable.
This post here was not off-topic, as it's a response to your reply to me and Neo's discussion which is related to the topic.
Not trying to be a pseudo-mod, I just like arguing. xP
Also, Moldrill, nothing personal dude, I just didn't care for Chopik.
