Do you even understand what the phrase "tyranny of the majority" means? This post certainly implies that you do not.
Also, IIRC, many people in this thread (mods included) have stated that the results of the poll shouldn't be used as a deciding factor when determining what, if anything, should be done about the thread. That there is a contingent of posters who are now trumpeting the fact that the "do nothing" option has a very slim majority whereas before there was a slim majority for "do
something" doesn't change that.
