"Can people not read, or are they just stupid?"

Every election, the same thing happens. A member of staff makes an official voting thread detailing the rules - who can and can't vote, who can or can't be voted for, and a simple declaration that only votes are to be posted in the topic - no chat or anything else.

Like this time:

"There's a few rules we need to clear up too, to avoid any trouble like the last few elections.

ONLY REGULARS/NOTABLES/STAFF ARE ALLOWED TO VOTE (No Newbies or JATs)
NO OTHER POSTS ARE TO BE MADE IN THIS TOPIC"


Yet still we have JATs and Newbies "voting", and idle chat in the official thread.

As I write this, the unofficial count of votes totals 78 - yet there are 91 posts in the official voting thread. Obviously we can take one off of that because of Snuggly's initial post creating the thread, but that still means that there are 12 posts which shouldn't be there.

So I ask...

Can people not read, or are they just stupid?

theyre always true stories!

Conclusion of research, Knick Knack is an idiot!

God told me to vote for *somebody* on MSN... he tried to send an e-mail to ALi but it might not work.

I for one, am stupid.

I just didn't bother reading it, as I was told the rules were same as always. Meh.

Yeah, its like the rules dont apply to some people.
