New AF Board Member: Nominations Open to Saturday 19 Oct 2013

When’s the voting?

The first order of business should be to change the poll on the right side of the page. It’s been the same question for a couple years and there are only 62 votes. That’s sad on at least three levels.

that shows lack of seriousness on his part, I would have expected at least a signed official letterhead delivered via courier form Numi…

Haven’t had a chance to look at things in the last 48 hours, but hope to get to it and figure out next steps in the next day or two.

If this is a competitive voting process, I hope to see brief candidate statements reflecting their views on forum policy and their future vision for AF. Not all voters will be familiar with the candidates’ history of posting on AF, and the candidates’ policy inclinations might not be reflected in their previous posts. Written statements would also be a show of good faith that the candidates are serious about spending some time thinking about forum policy, at least to the extent that they are willing to write a short paragraph to explain their platforms.

Ultimately, I realize that bchad/Chad will probably just choose whoever they want. However, if there is going to be a “user poll” component at all, it might as well be as legitimate as possible.

Seriously tho…S2000 and Numi ftw.

Maybe it’s a longitudinal study.

There has not been a poll in the right column for a long time. I’ve checked while logged in and while logged out. Where is it showing up?

Below the “Point Leaders” and above the “Most Popular” threads.

I also see this:

Poll Which version of the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) do you subscribe to? Choices Semi-Strong Strong Weak

On a side note, maybe it would be nice to hide the “AF all time point leaders list”. This might be counter to the point of that table, but I increasingly feel like a loser for having the most posts on some internet forum…

I’ve never seen any of these.

Yes I see this all the time.

I think you need to have your account set to the “Dark” theme or something like that. Never showed up for me until I changed that.

Anyways, if we’re voting yet - I vote S2000.

I see the poll also.

The best thing to do is to reach out to JDV and bring him back to the AF family. His mandate with Obama is ending soon.

The bribe was sufficient, I see.

Wow, people were always talking about stuff I never saw. I thought it was because of Ad Block. I didn’t know I could get rid of all that annoying white space (at least partially)! But I can confirm it happens when switching themes. There are like 3 or 4 boxes which weren’t there before.

Thank you! I’ve removed the poll from the dark background theme.

Darn, I was finally going to vote.
