Should polls be limited to one a week?

[Jan]

It seems a few members are getting peed off with all the polls and here I am making another one

How about we limit it to one a week?

 

[fuse303]

Why not have a sub forum, in general discussions, for Polls ?

 

[Loon]

You do realise how ironic this thread is right :classic2:

They don't really bother me, normally i just skip past them anyway.

 

[trenzterra]

No.

Anyway, I like these polls.

Last time, it was just boring old discussions.

Now at least we have some polls, more discussions, more fun.

 

[Bruce]

How about we just do away with polls all together?

I don't ever vote in them, not even in my own.

1 Pole, Per Person, Per Week. Maximum. Or i agree with Bruce, get rid of them

Finally someone sees it my way!

And Thanks Jan

 

[AdY]

Yes Please!!!!!
:biggrin2:

 

[Archbob]

Yes, 1 per week.

No way, more rules = less fun. If you dont like them, you don't have to read them

Why, people seems to like to reply to polls.

What I was gonna say

 

[Blank Verse]

I'm going to someday abolish polls. They are a waste of bandwidth.

Polls can server a purpose sometimes, but look at the ones currently on the front page:


Poll: Should polls be limited to one a week?
Poll: Have you clicked a sponsorship link by accident?
Poll: Is the earth flat?
Poll: Smoke?
Poll: Drink?
Poll: Are you sick of polls?
Poll: Hotmail
Poll: Best Server OS
Poll: What's the Best FTP program?

Really, nothing of importance. I guess when I think of it, Polls are really pointless. I looked through, nothing interesting : http://freewebspace.net/forums/sear...d=163831&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending

At least I found one good poll: http://freewebspace.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27923&highlight=poll

That's still a lot...


Personally, I don't care. If I find the poll topic boring, I just skip the whole thing. Same goes to all threads.

Everybody knows the results are usually inaccurate. So it doesn't matter whether there is a poll attached to a thread or not. In other words, poll threads don't annoy me any more than normal threads. To me, they're pretty much the same thing.

I come by now and then to see if there's anything new and interesting. If there's nothing to see, or if I'm done, X.
