Author Topic: Polls: A sequal!  (Read 1777 times)

So here it is. I find once again that the forums are being spammed again with billion option poll topics. Polls in most cases should only have two options. Here are some examples of what I am talking about.

A good poll:

Do you like pizza?

( ) Yes
( ) No


To some cases the poll will require more then one option. This is a matter of opinion on what you like such as if you like computer brand A, B, or C. It is best if you do not have more then five options. I personally suggest that if you have to have a poll as the above polls have done, to ask the reader to post their opinion on the subject matter. Polls are not always the solution. You can get information in other ways. Making a poll with 400 options is just spammy. It is even more so to have them pick more then one option in it. I do not even see why they enabled that in the polls. Polls are for opinions on a subject. If you can not pick between an opinion, then it should be made a point to read the topic and decide to make one. If you can not do so afterwards, then leave the poll to the others who could.


To others who have seen topics of similar nature:
I could not bump them and I have seen yet another increase in polls with useless options. Yes it is copy pasta.

I forgot to edit this in there but to get those who just vote for the first option, put no first. Then they will think more about what they are saying then just mindlessly saying yes before reading the topic.
