^thats under the impression that the mods will approve/deny anything regardless of poll results. Almost all the mods have expressed their disapproval so knowing that, what is the point?

I'm not opposed to making changes if that's what people want.

Honestly, I have not been here much lately because of personal crap and so have not had the time or patience to read through the original thread. I'm abstaining from voting because I don't yet understand what's going on here.

But what about those that don't? Would they just have to deal with it? If any of this ends up approved, my activity here will drop immensely.

I'm not really sure what you're saying here. If the majority of the forum wants X, are you saying the forum shouldn't consider X? I think it's reasonable to consider changes if the majority want them, though based on the previous poll, it looks like majority don't.
