Do you think nametags for the party?
Also, please don't read my opinion of this matter until you have voted!

My opinion (scroll WAY down!)
After at least 1 year of seeing eachother every week, isn't it kind of weird to wear nametags? We are all a big family, aren't we? Isn't it like saying, "after a year of seeing you EVERY week, I can't even remember you enough to know your name?"

I think we should have them because their will be people there that haven’t been seeing each other every week for a year, take my dad for example, he went one evening and doesn’t know you from a hole in the ground. This is just one example but their are, I'm sure, many others.

I don't believe in nametags. According to the pseudo-ancient Hindu religion I participate in, displaying your name in writing on your body is displaying your soul for the demons of the night to destroy at will.
And according to the Constitution (gotta love those amendments!), ALL RELIGIONS MUST BE GIVEN PRIORITY OVER CHRISTIANITY...because we believe in freedom of religion, but not for Christians.

I think your mom is right and I agree with Jonathan. My dad doesn't know anyone at the party. In fact, I bet you didn't even know I HAD a dad. With nametags you can see someone's nametag and think, "Oh, I've heard about him," and you walk over and begin a conversation. It allows more people to intermix and THEY can become part of the big Family of Speech and Debate also. It prevents them from standing around and wanting to disappear into space. Wow, that took a lot of effort. We just had a party today and I'm fried, so don't ask me to say anymore.

True, but I don't know you from a hole in the ground either! {j/k} Well, I'm not exactly happy with these results (thank you Tori, you now need only 27 pages) but I guess the majority has spoken! Or maybe I should get all my friends, everyone in my church, and everybody who plays Train Simulator to log on and vote for my opinion!

True, but I don't know you from a hole in the ground either! my point exactly! What do you have against having nametags? I know I like them because with out them I often slip into conversations with people who I don't know (or have forgotten their mane) and I am then forced to pretend I know them, which is always very unnerving.

I know most of the people in CHARGE, and I'm not fond of name tags... they get in the way of playing ultimate frisbee! If you want to know someone's name, just ask them!! His Servant, Jason

Anyway, who would actually write his or her real name on the name tag? I probably would put something like Arthur Dent, Elie Wiesel, Trippyshoe, Idiot, or something pointless like that on my name tag. If a parent does not know a student's name, then he/she can ask that student. I see nothing wrong with that. Now if some of the speech/debate people didn't know each other... then their ignorance should be revealed.

It is now tied! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ::Hasn't felt this strongly about anything since Resolution C:: I don't think this poll is a very valid way to determine what the majority of the people going think, or even charge message board users. their have only been 5 votes so far, that's out of over 60 ppl that have to go around nerveless hoping that no one asks "who were you talking to just now?" if you get your way. And what do you have against them anyway? I still want to know.

And I always thought she was just a normal Orthodox Presbyterian. Why don't you put out the stuff to make name tags by the door and leave it up to the individual to decide whether or not to label himself? That way the people who don't know other people’s names would put on name tags and they will all mix with other people wearing name tags and the people who know other people’s names can run free from any form of nomenclature.

I agree with Johnathan, but I don't like wearing name tags. I think you should only have to wear a name tag if you don't know very many people. Then if you see someone with a name tag on you can go and introduce yourself. That way those who know everyone (like Jason and Tori) won't have to wear name tags, but after I introduce myself Johnathans Dad will know me from a whole in the ground.

good point but I don't know any one named Johnathan so he will have to wear a name tag, I guess
