^ It had happened to me years ago, and it happened to me again yesterday. I don;t know why it is appearing now for you and me, but please read this topic:
If you have unwanted code in your post... (CLICK) where I addressed this issue. CLick on you control panel, then forum preferences, then disable the WYSIWYG post editor. I always did it manually, but if it helps I offer the BB forum code there for making hyperlinks manually, embedding videos, colour coded posts, bolding etc. without using the post editor. |

Someone has just given ALL of the recent prog polls - not just mine - a 1-star rating, so I'm guessing that's someone who believes polls are only for strippers and cross-country skiers.

That sounds like either someone with nothing better to do, or a troll. |

I've never seen anyone do that before, much less give every poll a 1-star rating.

Thanks to the Admins (and me signalling it) , thread rating featured cancelled. It'll avoid useless frictions and abuses

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Thanks Sean. The PA forums look much neater without all of those random star ratings scattered all over the place.

^ was Dio ever in Deep Purple? I can't find any mention of it on the Wiki page?
as as aside I've been listening to recent albums such as Infinite, Whoosh! and the most recent +1. They must have one of the best later discographies of any classic rock era band.

No, but he was in Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow.

Yes, he'd fit in Cozily if I hadn't already filled all 25 available slots.

Dio should not be in the list. If one puts Phenomena here (Glenn Hughes sang on three albums if i remember right, and only the debut on all the songs), Glenn sang and performed on a ton of bands, should all be mentioned?! I think his albums as a solo artist should be enough.

But Cozy has not played on any Deep Purple albums. Joe Satriani was only a live guitarist, helping to finish their 1994 tour. He never played an any albums.

^ So who would you like to see in place of Dio if I delete him from the upcoming series of polls?

Fair enough, I'll swap Joe Satriani for Cozy Powell, seeing as he's played in more rock bands than you can shake a drumstick at, including Phenomena, Rainbow & Whitesnake.

more Paul polls, please. If only to drown out Logan's alphabetical polls (which consistently leave out many bands despite the thread names
 ). It's maddening, son.
