A poll on polls
« on: September 27, 2007, 08:49:08 PM »
This feature was requested by a few members, but may have gone unnoticed. Your vote will determine it's future.

Thanks,

Yeah Roger, I don't know, it may be useful to some who want a consensus on certain brands or products, but we're ALL biased in our opinions, and that, to me anyway, requires commentary and justification...I've noticed that polls mean little in most other topics as well, especially politics...

Then again, who knows. It may prove itself worth the bandwidth...

I tried to create a poll the other day it was limited to 5 options. It says you can add, but it just keeps putting the same 5 over and over.    Can we up this limit?

What might be more useful is a "sticky" forum, in which basic tools or products that any newcomer would be interested in would be discussed.  Th poll thing might grow into that, but we already have a wealth of info in some of these threads.

I like polls on forums personally. I'm new to this forum, however, but will use it if it's still around :)
