Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I didn't know beevul was a hotshot. Thanks for the update.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: There is plenty of information here to make a good argument. It's too bad you had to resort to name-calling and personal attacks.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: The poster went in to personal attacks, not just argument.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I don't see this as being against the rules. I also don't see the words "pathetic" or "little". This looks like an attempt to censor a point of view and I can't vote for that. Leave it.
