Default A forum for ex-Holden people should be created

I have seen that there are a number of people on this forum who have crossed over from the dark side. We should create a place where these people can congregate, write stories about why they changed sides and tell us what they think of their first foray into the blue corner.

Anybody agree?

FF

EDIT: I asked the question - I did not start this poll.

I'd say with regards to ex-Holden people, the important thing is that they have now seen the light, no need for them to possibly subject them to abuse from people just because they used to be Holden people.

Regarding the poll, it was a tough choice, which no to go with, No or NO, but I made my choice and I stick by it. :hihi:

Not sure what use such an area would serve, let alone the longevity of it? Would probably get an average of 10 posts per month after the first couple of weeks, and would eventually die a slow dusty death IMO...

Why are you still here?! Why are you still posting?!
My god another poll?!!!!

I suggest a new area for the forum. In it should be only one post. And it should be labelled thus.

"NO MORE POLLS FOR YOU. EVER."

It should be limited to just Falcon Freak having access so he can read it everyday as a reminder.
