I would also put pretty much every Guns N' Roses song on this list as well, just because we are forced to listen to Axl sing so that we are able to listen to Slash play... Laugh | :laugh:

Please don't. These interminable "voting" posts are becoming tedious.

Indeed. Chris must be sick and tired of hearing the same whinge about the lack of voting. It will be back when it's back, and no amount of moaning will bring it back any sooner.

I couldn't resist that time. But I do appreciate the time that has gone into building this site.
 
In all honesty I am more intrigued with the up and coming release rather than the points as I can't trade them in Smile | :)

Same here (unless the new feature is that you can trade your points in for money, in which case I'm extremely interested).

Apologies Pete, for bringing this up when many others already have.
It was moaning till a few days ago. Now its more like yearning.

Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

Not been reading this forum long how did you used to vote ?
GeneralRe: When will voting be back again?protectorPete O'Hanlon3 Dec '12 - 10:20 
There was a voting bar beside the Report option. That let you vote from 1 to 5, with 1 being poor and 5 being good.

I'm clearly going to fit in here - where's the Report option ?
GeneralRe: When will voting be back again?protectorPete O'Hanlon3 Dec '12 - 22:22 
Sorry, the Report option may depend on you having been active here for a while. It's at the bottom right hand corner of the active post. If you can't see it, don't worry.

Hi Pete, thanks for your time, is *active* measured in the amount of posts made or login times ? I think it must be posts as I've been lurking here for some time
GeneralRe: When will voting be back again?protectorPete O'Hanlon3 Dec '12 - 22:52 
Ironically, it's down to reputation. Answer some questions. Write some articles. You'll soon rack up the points.
