Microsoft signs deal to allow voting REGISTRATION over XBL

[Leomhann]

Now things get more heated, aside from random kids whose balls have yet to drop with attitudes bigger than a chihuahua's.

They're allowing people to register. No big deal.

[Leomhann]

It will be for those who think their opinion matter more than yours. And we all know theres plenty of those on XBL.

[Burris]

It doesn't say they can VOTE online dude.

[Leomhann]

"take part in polls to find out their voting intentions." form of. Besides the title of the thread which obviously can be taken all manner of ways, my point is some kids will think their twice the hot shit they originally thought they were.

[Burris]

Well, that doesn't matter. Youths don't vote.

[Leomhann]

How often do you play on XBL and don't run into a kid making outrageous claims and being an annoying little twat? With this little tidbit of info being advertised, that adds another claim to some of the kids opinionated little claim belt. Actual voting or not, they still say it. So on top of it all, you might start hearing political statements instead of just the usual banter.

Changed the title too. Better?

[Burris]

Most of the annoying kids over XBL are too young to vote anyway.

They're not too young to get their dad's belt and hang themselves from the showerhead.

[Leomhann]

Like I said, they don't have to be voting age to make the claim over the internet. Hell, most of them claim they're 6'5 body builders.

I agree about the belt and showerhead.

Isn't it a good thing when the youth actually bother to register/vote? Personally if someone tells me they don't vote in general elections then I think they lose the right to ever moan about their country or it's policies.

If they annoy you on XBL, mute them or summat.
