Nope, they didn't. But thanks for asking.

Are you sure they didn't make a decision already? You might want to check again. Wait, I just did the legwork for you since it's too difficult to scan threads on your own. Here you go.

I really think the OP's idea isn't a bad one, but it just isn't going to work here, especially without some kind of site support. In fact, I might even see Spiderman in this thread's future. :wink:

I could do that my vast array of mod powers, but sadly, I will not.

I did scan the threads and I found the exact same ones you found. They don't say it's too much work. You are right, those mods aren't supporting my idea, but they also aren't saying its too much work.

Whatever their reasoning, the result is still the same.

Clinging on desperately with this post.
Still, you've tied things up for an entire day fighting this quixotic fight. That should be a resume builder.

I seem to remember a certain that poster that really wanted CF to provide some coupons. I have always wondered what happened to that guy...:wideeyed:

So why are you clinging so tightly to this idea?

The system beat him down.
I think I'm there. The system has beat me down. You all win. Sleep well tonight. The vocal minority has successfully backed me into a corner and coerced me into submission (at least for tonight). Congratulations and good night. Man, why does my butt hurt like this?

Because your idea sucks and your poll skews the numbers to make you think you're actually in the majority

You need to look up the definition of minority. Again you fail to admit your idea is not popular and you continue to try and convince everyone that it's an awesome idea.

Actually the WRNL Morning Dump is exactly what you're looking for. If it's worth a ****, WRNL has it. The only thing they wouldn't have is a tweet from Recruit Z about how much he loves vanilla ice cream, which is essentially the USP of a thread like this.
