In the vote, the troll-calling provision won in a landslide. Of course, it was already being used by one side. Why would they want to lose a weapon? Again you may have not gotten to my subsequent post, but where did the troll label in posts 58 and 59 arise? Why would anyone accept an unsubstantiated label. Those who know why the label is given, need no warning, and those that do not know why need evidence for that label.

Please see post 628, and the troll provision had already been made in another thread. ALS practically begged for it, so he got it.
A person that has been posted as a troll, does NOT get a fresh start on a new one, the name sticks as soon as they prove that they are going to continue the behavior.
#56 proved it beyond a doubt for me.

Thank you for your reply!
me: In the vote, the troll-calling provision won in a landslide. you: Of course, it was already being used by one side. Why would they want to lose a weapon?
The votes just weren't there. The options were: with troll-calling, without troll-calling, either way. There were more people voting on the Creation/Intelligent Design side for the agreement "either way" than there were for "without troll-calling."
I let both sides know exactly how many votes they would need to kill the agreement or throw it the other way, but the votes never came. The no-troll-calling provision had very few supporters and it failed.
