Default Ok Folks, back to 1 room.

By a majority of only 4% stating they would prefer one room to the other 46% saying two rooms or dont care either way, we are back to one room.

Que all teh complaints proving beyond a shadow of a doubt, that i cannot win, ever.

Boo!


No worries Stu, you tried your best mate

Personally i think it worked much better as two, but obviously you have to go with what the majority (by 4% ) think!

Annoying thing is that those who want it in one place only needed to click "new posts" and the rest of us could have still seen it seperately

The only problem IMO, was that you had 2 muppet rooms. Now you've gone back to 1.5 muppet rooms

NO 2 rooms was better

It was nice not looking through a load of non car related crap.

I want to read and chat / learn about cars not peoples silly chat.

Very disapointed that it is back to how it was again
It seems some narrow minded people can't deal with change which is something that needs to happen if things are to evolve and improve!
I really hope the mods are going to be a little more fussy and at least let people who want to read about car related stuff get to see it without trawling through umpteen pages of drivel

There was no fairer way to do this than to have a vote by all the people who pay for the bandwidth. Thats what i did, and this was the result.

I personally think that people will actually realise how crap it actually is like this and start to change their minds again over the next 48hrs.. lol

At the end of the day the votes were counted and the best man won(so to speak).

So the folks who didnt get there way.................... DEAL WITH IT!!

I admit it is easier to choose posts with the two, but I just can't be arsed to flick between the two pages. I only come on for a few minutes at a time so prefer to be able to scroll the one page and be done with it.

if it wasnt changed previously you wouldnt have people moaning about it now..

it would appear you cant win either way

I actually prefer 2 rooms but as a non gold member... it means shit

If you do another poll, then it goes to 2 rooms, you will get moaners saying back to one room..

1 room worked fine before, so cant see why it wont again.. true tho, its a chore trying to find posts as they go to page 2, 3 etc due to the amount..

fortunately I dont live on here, and it really doesnt effect me in anyway.. so, goodluck

I'd like to see a show of hands of people who voted for 1 room, but would now change it to 2. I bet there are plenty of you out there!
