Pollicy - 'Cause, see, it's a policy about polls

[Zeke]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]As you've all noticed, the poll feature of the 5MV forums is currently enabled again. Â The reason I turned it back on was to post 5MV Nomenclature Poll III, but I've been thinking about it and I've decided I may as well leave it enabled. Â I like to get your opinions about things, so it's more convenient not to have the poll feature off by default. Â Besides, making it available for a few days and then turning it off again is a bit like taunting you guys, isn't it?

However, if we keep the polls, it's with the understanding that they're to be used responsibly, as it were. Â I don't want a hundred junk polls popping up -- we've all seen forums that get bogged down that way. Â (Frankly, Miscellaneous has enough... iffy threads as it is.) Â So we need a control measure. Â Personally, I'd rather not see more than one poll active at a time in the same forum. Â If you have a brilliant poll idea that you absolutely [iost_uid0]have[/iost_uid0] to post, very well, but in most cases let's wait till the current poll is done before posting a new one. How's that sound?[/colorost_uid0]
