I think this is a really good idea, and you can tell by how many people voted in these two, as opposed to the others which were only advertised in the forums.

All Subscribers had PMs with hotlinks to the voting booth.

What? A Vote? About what? Hmm, that sounds nice. Tick. Click.

I voted yesterday. There has been about 300 votes then, and a very clear majority had voted "No."

Its great to have mass sufferage, but it would have been even nicer if PMs had also directed voters to a discussion or debate or had been given some background, some argument and counter argument as what the issue is about.

Instead of "Would you happy if..."

Ooh, yes, I would be happy. tick click.

This is a simple Yes/No vote to decide if we need to make the vacation flag give immunity to timeouts.

The time that would be allowed to stay in vacation mode would be limited (if the vote comes out as a Yes, we will put up another vote on the time period), and I imagine it being about three or four weeks per year.
When you cast a yes vote, your name should forever be displayed in red. The nos shall remain blue.

btch plz.
