Either a ban on *any* non-cycling transport-related discussion in a post, a ban or restriction which applies to Matt B in particular, or some combination of the two, I suppose.

Also, I wouldn't have thought that a majority of the responses needed to be what Jackson is obviously hoping for. Just a handful of "anti- Matt B" responses may be deemed "enough", no matter how many other people reply. Since this whole exercise is obviously designed to come to a particular conclusion, Jackson will do his best to interpret the results in his favour. That's leaving aside the possibility of skulduggery that Tom mentioned.
