Removing The Neutral Section on RFRs

As you should hopefully know, RfR's contain a Support section, a Neutral section, and an Oppose section. A few users, myself included, have found some reasons for the Neutral section being unnecessary. *Having the Neutral section for feedback isn't necessary, as feedback can be communicated just as effectively through the Comments section.

Eliminating the Neutral section encourages actual voting (supports/opposes).

We'll be able to reach a better consensus.

Users who are unsure can simply state that in comments, or just vote on what they're leaning towards. There will be much more time for them to decide their final vote (and change their previous vote if needed), thanks to a longer RfR timespan which Luke's minimum time requirements for RFRs will likely bring into effect.

A) Support, remove the Neutral section from RfR's.

B) Oppose, keep the Neutral section.

C) Neutral (this is incredibly ironic )

(Co-written by Luke and I btw)

Current Votes

A) Remove the Neutral section: 4 votes.

B) Keep the Neutral section: 27 votes.

C) Neutral: 1 vote.

Consensus

Keep the Neutral section.

B, removing the Neutral section feels kinda like there's more pressure to vote for one side or the other. The comments section isn't exactly a good alternative, it'd get pretty long and kinda hard to scroll down through.

Per this, so B.

B. A bunch of good points for it have already been stated so I feel no need to type ones out. :P

B. Surrre, it's useless. But if we didn't have neutral vote, the people who would normally vote that way probably wouldn't vote at all. And that would be sad. Plus, I remember from my own experience that if you're an aspiring rights-owner, it's really useful to see if there are a bunch of undecided people. It can tell you that you need to get out there and let people get to know a bit more about you and the way you do things. So in the end it's really not that useless...
