Are We Wasting Our Time?

but rather one of perceived partiality.

Right, but whether or not the percieved partiality is accurate or not, people want them to be partial to us instead of partial to their own home market.

Instead of wanting them to be partial to us or them, people should be wanting it to be fair and equal. I don't have a problem with people being upset, but you ask for equality, not inverse discrimination.

I don't see any of that in the OP or in the conversations in this thread I partook in. The reason for this thread's creation was due to an imbalance, rather than wanting the balance in our favor. Voting is all fine and dandy. Ignoring votes gets people upset. I doubt most people here want SE to turn around and ignore the JP base. I certainly don't. But if they're going to ask for an international poll, I'd appreciate it if they did us the courtesy of counting our results.

I was more specifically nodding at the post saying that we should be a higher priority than the Japanese. I agree that the voting should have been conducted equitably.
