es, I agree that Mankin didn't do anything inappropriate by starting his poll.
I have to disagree here. you were a mod at one point and you are of age and you have the respect of many in the forum. you were also contacted by the Admins. I think that changes issue. I don't think that a child should be allowed to make a major change in the forum on a whim. Now if the authorities tell you that is another thing. I don't see how his poll helped the unity of the forum it divided it.

Ice, have you read what everyone is saying about Mankin's poll.

Look at this poll: http://www.christianforums.com/t5795273-should-the-sda-forum-be-split.html

It was started on July 27th at 6:22 PM.

Here's Mankin's poll: http://www.christianforums.com/t5797555-since-this-forum-looks-like-it-is-going-to-be-spilt.html

It was started on July 30th at 5:14 AM.

His poll was in RESPONSE to Sophia's and at the time...the vote was leaning toward splitting the forum.

Mankin's poll wouldn't have changed anything.

He was merely asking who would go to the Progressive forum and who would go to the Traditional forum if we split.
he should not have started it to being with

I figured you'd PM and express your apology. The chances of them going through this thread post by post are slim and none.

Ice, when I see anyone mistreat another person on this forum, I SAY SOMETHING. Ask Night.

I had to go to a family member on here over something that was said to him.

I also scolded him for saying something to DJ that I didn't feel DJ deserved.

I am not quiet when I see someone getting the raw end of the deal and I don't care who it is.

I don't always do it publicly, but I DO do it.

If you're mistreated and I see it, you bet I'll say something.

Ask MVA about my very first PM to him. It was "hi, welcome to the forum....now STOP doing that!"

He and I are great friends now, but it could've gone either way. If he had gotten mad at me telling him to stop doing what he was doing, I don't imagine he'd like me right now.

He took accountability. That is a quality I don't see a whole lot of anymore.

Then why did you apologize?
because I was convinced that my tone was to harsh. I did not say what I wanted to say in the right way. For that I apologized already, it was a mistake. You need to let go. It is over. you are not going to ride me like NIght was ridden?

HEY!

Alright, I need to clarify something here. Yes, Trust PM'd me and 'suggested' that I apologize to Conklin. But ultimately I did it because I saw that I had unfairly misjudged his post.

No one manipulates me to do anything I don't want. I'm the boss of me! So there!

I have to agree with T&O on this. Mankin started his poll in order to get a head count of who would be going where if the forum split (which it looked as if it would do at that point). He wasn't trying to change anything about the forum structure.
