    i can't see it any longer either.

    so by all means.

    eta: a better & honest poll might be "is it a bit large for your taste"

    i don't think anyone ever had a prob w/ the pic or subject matter itself.

    and if you truly wanna know, make it private!

    again, my only issue as stated was that it takes threads forever to load. and i'm not talking from a home computer. i'm talking middle of the airport or somewhere that cellular reception isn't quite the best but you've got time to kill. you might not be there today. but you will one day and i can assure you it's more than taxing on both your time and battery. that's all.

    it's basically the equivalent to quoting someone's entire 20 card scan post to just say "nice cards" is all. sure, there's no real rule against it but you usually don't get smiles for breaking down in the middle of rush hour traffic either.

    I can be swayed to vote either way for a PayPal $5 gift transfer.

    Okay if $5 is too high, do a best offer and i'll likely accept it.

    it's moot at this point, perk. the simple fact that "i don't make private polls" says enough as it is. i could start a private poll on the main board stating how annoying is this to see over and over after every 3 word post 20 times a day? and/or over and over while digging through older threads?

    pretty sure i'd get some pretty biased and favorable results far exceeding 6. but again, just the fact that you did try to change it to a smaller size further tells us that you might realize the absurdity behind it or at the very least the implications of having such a huge signature pic 21,000 times on the site.

    and i surely hope the "i could care less" talk about how your single billboard of a pic might affect hundreds of other users mighta just been you talking outta your dime, man.

    it'd be a shame to see you dance around this buddy poll after 4 days like some major victory when you know it isn't and have already tried to change it accordingly. either way, problem is solved on this end but if you wanna keep tossing back witty comments, i've got plenty of time now that the sig pics don't have to download! 😁

    as for my opinion, i'm standing above...

    I agree with artee about the repeat's of the 20 card scan posts just to say 'nice cards'

    You really got me all wrong. I posted this poll to see if maybe I’m being unreasonable thinking that it is a problem for people. Secondly I’m not trying to be “Witty” like you, you were pounding your chest about how much of a solid guy you are by telling me you had a problem with it so it confused me as to why you would suggest I do a private poll?

    no. i told you personally that it was effecting people. and specifically me today. others chimed into me personally as to how to solve the problem on this end. in between time, you basically decreed "could care less" that it effected other people and told me i was crying. i've got zero interests in outing anyone's buddies here but several people have enacted the "slash sig pics" options, well, because of you.

    i never beat my chest about being a solid guy.

    as dimeman said, i don't matter one bit.

    so go right ahead, keep clogging up the site. i tried coming straight to you directly and explained it multiple times. but you need a public and biased buddy poll when other people have also told you what the problem is. maybe you just can't read between any of those lines either simply because they don't wanna vote and be outed in your public poll. after all, the site's here to build unity, not animosity. but the clues are all there and the writing's clearly on the wall. comprehending it is step two.

    problem solved on this end for the 5th and final time. you continue tobe you, though.

    keep brady or at change it to giselle (another hint). no longer care, seriously.

  • perkdogperkdog Posts: 30,647 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Nobody has said anything to me except you. Fact. And this buddy poll is something your making up
    In your head, I cannot believe you have had multiple conversations about this with people here that are afraid to speak their mind lol. Your getting weird, and it wasnt the 5th time you explained it either so if your trying to be witty as you accused me of try to be more witty than a 5 year old.

    So it is Saturday night. The first Saturday night of the new year. Restaurants and casinos and strip clubs are open and I am sitting here reading a debate as to whether a sig line is problematic to forum users.

    Sure it is a bit distracting, but perk loves his team and for all we know, tonight may be Brady;s final game. i voted to keep it and figure after a week or two or whenever the Pats season is over, perk will remove it.

    if the big Tom Brady picture is your sig-line you should either take it down or size it to meet PCGS forum rules. our moderator, Ms. Boyd made me take down my sig-line a few months ago and it was the US Navy Jack, all because of the size.

    Just think, Brady will be out of a job before Jason Garrett.

  • keetskeets Posts: 25,351 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Take it down

    Brady will be out of a job before Jason Garrett.

    technically, Tom Brady was out of a job as soon as the clock hit zero in yesterdays game while Jason Garrett is still technically the Dallas Cowboy's HC because the owner hasn't pulled the trigger on him. none of that is really in question.

    what might be in question is which one of the two is "hired" before the other.

    I suspect that Brady has a certain amount of control over his situation, he is a "quantity" that is desirable. he also holds control over the decision of whether or not to continue his career. Garrett, on the other hand, has control over almost nothing, if he did he would resign. the problem with that is he would probably sit out the 2020 season or end up on the staff of another HC. his "stock" right now is lower than a snake's belly. to use the old saying, Jason Garrett was given the keys to a Ferrari and he treated it like a Volkswagon.

    Well, Jason La Canfora reported last night before the game that Brady will definitely play next season, but it will be up to Brady to decide where. I don't think Brady will leave the Patriots. I think they'll get a deal worked out for him to stay.
