That site sucks.
Last Year I registered to vote, I have tried a lot of things and find
no way to vote, Then someone told me I need to make a post (oh ! a
really smart way to avoid robots :) ), so I made a post, no way to vote,
one told me I need to wait some time to "refresh" the data, other said
that I need to log off/log on, etc, etc, etc. so I gave up.
This year I entered the site, remembered that I need to make a post to
vote, and just press the log off button.
Am I lazy ? Perhaps... But I really dislike that site, will not vote
there, period.
And couldn't agree more that Firebird users lost his passion... Why ? I
don't know...

Re: [firebird-support] OT: Vote for Firebird as Database of the Year

From my own experience with the number of votes in polls at
firebidNews.org and firebase.com.br, I think people are "lazy" about
voting.
This LinuxQuestions poll is even "worse" in such aspect, since not
everyone uses FB on Linux, and even when they use, most people don't
wanna waste 5 minutes registering to a site they will not use, just to
be able to vote por FB. I would say that in the past, Firebird users
were more passionate about the product. Unfortunately, this seems to
not be true anymore (and I could list some possible reasons for that).

Hi All,
I think more than 6000 people here should be more active in terms of
Firebird visibility support - this poll received only 29 votes for
Firebird.
Also, it would be nice to have more testimonials from Firebirders:

(submit your testimonial in the end of the page - in any language).
