OK, let's put it this way.

A few people got their feelings hurt because they couldn't disguise their voting...or lack of same.

But this thread and the avatars raised the TB voting issue to, I predict, record heights. And to record voting levels or I'll eat my words.

And perhaps incentivized a few members to look into the TB voting process and candidates a little deeper. And perhaps vote for a few folks they thought would help build the future of FT.

So, bottomline, IMO, this whole issue is a positive for FT.
