Sorry but the voting results where like this :

Keep btctalk 53.9%
Keep it as is   - 28 (44.4%)
Close it and start a new btctalk thread   - 6 (9.5%)

End btctalk 46%
End it with link to new forum   - 17 (27%)
Delete it and link to new forum   - 12 (19%)


SO why make a voting, if they have decieded to close it anyways.
The majority voted for having a btctalk thread and leave the old one open.

You cannnot count " Close it and start a new btctalk thread  " to "End btctalk" this is a contradiction.
