    the results seem fairly conclusive, bring back the tags and rep. The people have spoken.

    Wouldn't make any difference sword. The decision's been made and that's that. I'm afraid Mick didn't have any choice when it came to the tags. Some people (they know who they are) chose to put some pretty horrible racist abuse on them and Mick faced the threat of prosecution.

    It's a shame but don't blame the site owner. Blame the racists.

    Another way of looking at this is that there are 12,873 members on this site of which, so far, 32 have agreed with the decision.

    That's 0.249%. Conversely, 99.751% are either unhappy with the decision or couldn't care one way or the other.

    TBH - I was getting a bit pissed off with the rep and was just posting inappropriate links to porn sites.

    The tags were ok, sometimes funny, but the majority of them were ****e "Medros cancer" and **** like that isn't even funny, yet much fake hilarity ensued from the groooovy gang and co.

    I'm not bothered one way or another.

    Glad to see the back of them, they were unacceptable in most cases, a shield for racists, bigots and cowards to hide behind.
