the linden voting station is useless, and nomod. People who beleive these old things do anything are wrong.

The only reason I have one in my shop, is to shut up the people who kept telling me to get one.

I find them entertaining. I always vote whenever I see one.

LOL Winter


So many places still have these that it's ridiculous, they've been obsolete "forever". I think even way before the first Copybot was released.

Useless, and in demand: A perfect item for *my* shop--if I can sell copies. :p

I miss hearing the fanfare in the distance as someone does their daily rate run. :(

It didn't work. They're still talking, just about something else.

At the time, it was to silence the "STAFF" people who kept sending me in individual requests that we add one. When I finally explained to them all that these things were useless.. I swear to you, the CUSTOMERS started asking why I didn't have one.

So I got one and put it up..

At least now, 90% of the customer contacts are related to my actual products.

There is a voting station that does record your votes at www.slpoplularplace.com. You have to get the voting station from the webiste i believe. Was so long ago when I got it i do not remember. But votes are counted and recorded on this website.

If it's the place I'm thinking of and you typed the URL correctly, I think it's been gone for a while now -- that domain is up for grabs.

The website still exists, and you can still get the booth.

I put it up here as the webite directs you to some location, where you jump through hoops to get it.

So websites exist but do they serve any purpose? Are these results used for anything? Does anyone look at the results of the most popular places. It sounds to me like the new stations are as useless as the old one except the scores are actually being tallied "somewhere" where maybe a few go to see.
