If you check it every few minutes it gives you different readings.

Well I managed to 'vote' about 40 times, so it should be treated with a pinch o' salt.

If that is the case then the whole exercise seems pointless. I would have thought that they had the ability to make sure that you only voted once (i.e. because of the cookies). Thanks for that. |

Did the result change as a consequence of your voting though?All of these things should be taken with a pinch of salt, however the current approximate 1/3rd of people saying yes (I'm assuming 1/3rd of people voting never go anywhere), and 2/3rds saying no worse than anywhere else sounds about right. |

 Looks like Newbury's "The glass is half empty" lot will have to go and find something else to moan about now

Who are these people ? Do they stay in bed all day? Or is it just as a result of this thread!!  Walk along Northbrook Street a couple of times on a Saturday afternoon and you'll see what I mean!  (Don't try the evening it's not advisable!) |

Uuumm, HELLO, this post is supposed to be about the Stroud Green Trees!
 I know that things on forums can quite quickly and all that but this does seem to be a little infantile if I may say. "Little things please little minds". Have your lives got so boring that you are all finding this entertaining?  I'm sure GMR could find you something else to do......

HELLLOOOO!!! this thread was instigated by ASB on Stroud Green resulting in the breaking of saplings.
It has EVERYTHING to do with this thread. And if you think ASB is a "little thing" then you must be one of those who stays in bed all day! |

This thread was inspired by a particular piece of anti-social behaviour which was the breaking of trees on Stroud Green. Your playing around with what surely should be a totally new thread i.e. "Wwho can make the Anti-Social Behaviour Statistics Poll change the most"

Your playing around with what surely should be a totally new thread i.e. "Wwho can make the Anti-Social Behaviour Statistics Poll change the most" I had nothing to do with the experiment to change the poll statistics. I merely asked those who were voting "NO" to come on here and discuss their reasons fo doing so. This was because I find it hard to believe that anyone can think we do not have a problem in this day and age and was interested to know their thoughts on this. I used this thread rather than start a new one because it seemed appropriate to discuss ASB here. (Which, as I said, was the cause of the trees being vandalised.) I can assure you was not instigating or participating in any childish games. I leave that to others.
