Posting polls.... All read please

Ziroc · 09-14-2002, 03:31 AM

I have noticed a LOT of people posting polls.

You need to post these in the POLL FORUM. That is what it's for. And please don't post silly poll's like "Should I eat Apple pie tonight?" [img]smile.gif[/img] Silly!!!

Thanks guys!!

But if I'm *really* not sure whether I should eat apple pie or not, then what? Call my therapist? Those phone consults are always so expensive... [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img]

[img]tongue.gif[/img] Just kidding. Good rule, some of us definitely needed that reminder! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Not trying to be a smart@$$ but why is there a poll button in General Discussions anyway.

It would be neat if it were possible to have the button drop you into the Polls Forum when you pressed it. Or maybe just remove it entirely.

I don't usually post polls anyways, so I'm happy to follow this rule. Do we get stickers if we don't post a poll for 100 days? Cos I LIKE stickers. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Should this thread be bumped from time to time?

Hallelujah! My prayers have FINALLY been answered!!

Thanks, Ziroc! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

P.S. I agree with Skywalker...is there no way that the button can be removed from GenCon? If not, that's ok...but it would make things a lot easier.

The Poll button is here for 'casual' polls, but abuse of it can get out of hand. There are many reasons to have the Poll feature on this forum.

I think it's fine having the option to do a short little poll in other forums besides the USER POLLS, but I am very glad to see this announcement. Thanks Z.. .LOL, looks like you gave a nice birthday gift to Sazzie too!

*watches Saz dancing 'round GD and chuckling* Well, it should help cut back on the weird ones, or so we can hope!
