    I voted yes because I want a big change in our unions.

    if unions become more visable, better designed, easier to use, easier to make people join. Then why not. But i am still sceptical. They have said it so many times that i don't care anymore. leaders and officers have been keeping unions alive while Gamespot has blatantly ignored leaders, officers and regular union users for so many years

    The difference is though, this time we have actual confirmation from a developer that something will be happening. Unions will not be left out in the cold. This is a first from GS - we've never had this before in all the years I've spent campaigning for union reform.

    Six years, and it may finally come! I've been waiting for this longer than an HD Nintendo game.

    Meh. Lark also had plenty of things he said yes to when the site was allowing for users to say enhancements in a specific subforum years ago.

    I think there were a lot of things from there that didn't happen.

    Waiting for Grand Theft Auto V? Buy this in the meanwhile.

    nothing happened. Gamespot and CNET ignored us completely. Heck they ignored unions so much they didn't fix the level glitch for 4-5 years

    Was a supporter since Sentinel first created an elaborate layout design for the unions. Would have thought some of the ideas, if not all, would have been implemented into what appeared to be a promising GameSpot-feature in Unions.

    Tech Support people are over worked and I'm afraid Unions are not their top priority

    Will UCBs replace unions?

    With an end to subscription services and all free users now getting the ability to create their own UCBs, this further makes unions redundant. Does this mean UCBs will replace unions?

    in some instances a UCB is better than a union.

    several years back I failed to get enough people to start a footy union so I used my UCB.

    after about 2 seasons it was dead in the water so if I use the UCB again I'll have to delete the entire 2 pages and start over

    UCBs already can be used for unions and soon - as Michael noted - they could replace them entirely.

    it is nice to not need four co sponsors to start up although that does help show there is an interest in your subject.
