Time's running out (I think?) to get some more votes in, before we can have an almighty punch-up over whether any margin's going to carry the majority vote through.

Two or three peeps are unsure and they've changed their vote
It was 14 to 10 in favour of guest posting last night (I think)

It's close at the moment

What, another punch-up...?

Anyway...time isn't running out, as no time limit was 'set in stone' so to speak from the outset of this poll.

As there is obviously going to be contention from certain voters over the margins required to carry a fair majority vote through, and also probably some contention about the number of people that have voted in relation to the actual forum membership numbers, then perhaps we need to take a different approach in order to decide this issue in the fairest possible manner.

A postal vote, via email. That way, EVERY member of SZ will be consulted and will have a say, which of course includes all those who may not have been logged in recently and therefore will have missed this poll.

^ Very wise DG. There's still a possibility some will be displeased, as a matter of course.

Oh dear

50% each now. How exciting!

Don't get too close to the edge of your seat Ab's, those damn things have a habit of tipping over and slamming your head into the floor or nearest sharp object... the vile evil chairs that they are.

It would be good if they could post only in todays news or something first it would serve as a trial, if it goes well you could enable guest posting in other forums?

It is the more sensible way of doing it I agree.

We looked at guest posting and limiting it to one category from the beginning, and if that was an option this forum would have likely started out with at least one category that had guest posting enabled.

however it is not possible in this version of Kunena forum. There is no guest on/off setting for individual categories...instead it is either on/off for all categories.

I have since found out the latest version of Kunena has had its permissions options/settings revised because people were asking for this feature...and it is possible in the newest version.

I expect an upgrade to happen eventually here, but given recent events im not sure when that will occur tbh.

Well if it gets voted in, the Mods will working over time... deleting porn, etc no no no

I see this as being very foolish; it opens Andyh, not the folks proposing this, open to risk

But if you are going to do it: comments only

No images, no vids and no links

Well my own vote is no for that very reason lol.

That said looking at the tally I can't see it ever happening even though I could sort it.

Well those that suggested it have the option to try this experiment on the site that they are currently responsible for.

I would humbly advise against it for the same reason that I am advising you.

But they have that choice if they think ot will work.

I would say that since this thread began before (but only just before) the upheavel of the last few days, that the decision be postponed until after we have got other more pressing matters under way and running smoothly.
