For reference, here is the reason why we should ban it:
http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html

But but but, that's not related to the game!
Ok, let me explain why I made this post.
The poll system for whether to implement something is USELESS. It makes a vague proposal on something that contains no details whatsoever and ask us to vote on it. The problem is, we have no real idea of what we are voting on, because we have no idea, if implemented, what it would look like and how it works in game. That's not useful whatsoever.
I mean for many of you, you probably won't be able to know whether we should ban dihydrogen monoxide without knowing what it is. I have however, at the very least, provided you with a link that contains a lot of information, that's better than the poll system, right? Well....

I'm sure some of you have caught on or already know what that is, but just in case anyone haven't, dihydrogen monoxide is water. That's right, the stuff you drink every day to keep yourself alive, water.
Obviously we are not going to ban water! But if you follow that site, well... that prints a rather different picture doesn't it?
And that tells you just how important presentment and knowledge of the subject matter is! You should never ask anyone to make an uninformed decision, and currently, that's exactly what the last two poll are, uninformed decisions. There is simply insufficient information to know what it is we are voting on and therefore, I am unable to vote.
If you want votes, present your facts first, it is VERY important.

Edit: I can even make an argument that the first poll was also an uninformed decision. While it is strongly implied that it will be to 90 with at the very least the rest of the 80s tier elite instance, it was never stated. And the possibility of new TI and other content along with it was also a point of dicussion but nothing is known for sure. For all intend and purposes, the elite instance could still be locked even at 90 just because, or it could be increased to 89 so we don't get the extra survival breakthrough node. Heck, it can be even to 86 and nothing else changes whatsoever making the entire matter moot. That doesn't make any sense and you probably won't do something that useless, but the fact that it's even a possibility is hilrious. I wonder how people who voted yes for that thread expecting new content would feel if it was indeed a 86-and-nothing-else update.
