I will quote an important message here, you may want to read it:

I will keep the moderator who wrote this anonymous because of various safe-keeping and privacy reasons. As I've mentioned this new resource section has a high chance of occurring.
Genin, I think you have definitely not helped your case out here. People are not
only contending over the main issue ("Should we have a section for Rips: Y/N?"), but over the perceived sense of 'official-ity' that you have lent to the topic.
I'll concede, you've done an excellent job organizing the post (the Poll could, as aforementioned, use some tweaking to provide a true dichotomy of choices), but in so doing you have presented a message which to some implies a level of "Official-ness" that you cannot truly insure. This issue
itself is proving decisive; people like Solu9 are not simply upset at the suggestion, but at the
way you have presented it. (things like "Final Decision" in the first post, all the fancy BBCoding, etc).
That being said, if you're quote is legitimate, then this issue is
indeed a little more certain than some of us would care to admit; however, the fact remains that this (and really, almost every user-made Poll
ever) is merely a "place to lodge & catalogue
opinions", and should thus only be presented as such. Unless it's Administrator- or Moderator-driven, Polls cannot and
should not be considered, implied or inferred to be "official".
That being said.
Thusly.
