[QUOTE="mamba, post: 9060597, member: 7034611"] whether it is broken is in the eye of the beholder. The rest goes back to what I wrote earlier, we have the SR and LR and what they recharge, but I don’t think that ever got 70% when it was introduced. I don’t think that could get 70% now if they wanted to bring it in. So this is me objecting to the poll methodology. The fact that eliminating recharge on SR did not get 70% is not all that relevant to me when having it would not get 70% either. To me the 70% approval in this case is an obstacle to doing the ‘right’ thing, and we are stuck with the ‘wrong’ thing because we already have it when no one asked for it. If neither approach gets 70% approval, then we should not need 70% to change the existing approach, it should be sufficient to be the more popular approach out of the two. If the polls show that what we have now gets, say 60% and ‘my’ idea gets 40%, then stick to the current design. But if my idea gets the 60% and the current design the 40%, then I see no reason to not change the design, just because the new one did not reach 70%. So if the polling shows 70+% happy with what we have, then keep it, and I begrudgingly shut up about it. I don’t think we would see that however. I think we are stuck with a less popular and inferior solution because of the 70% approval rule that the current rule never had to clear. [/QUOTE]
