Its not so much about controlling, its a lot about the fact that the forums have had a lot of recent polls that dont really need to be there. I could care less if people make them, but most times its like "Do you really think the DEVs will implement this radical awesome noob idea just because it got some votes?"
Polls to try and show support for silly things are just that. Silly. I could care less if you make them, but to me, it shows that you are looking for people to gather the support you are too lazy to compile yourself.
Its like saying "Whats so bad about resuggesting fastropes....again?" Well, in the end? Nothing. Theres nothing terribly awful about it, but it makes the forums look silly and full of sh*t we dont need....
Although, polls are different as they are based within each thread, but come on, we DONT need a poll for absolutely every thread
honestly though, youre getting really defensive when the first person to suggest MOD approval was a standard member
Votes are spread evenly, I doubt we'd do anything to change the current method as it is. This thread and the other similar thread seem to be more out of fun than people are putting into them...
Meh... polls here are mostly lame anyway, like the minimap one... Pshhhhh
as always, Masaq says things just how Id like to:
Project Reality Forums - View Single Post - Polls
MOD approved Polls would also ensure non-bias questions that are properly phrased and edited to actually make sense before people begin voting on something poorly worded.
Calm down, thats not all polls, but thats a fair amount that I have come across that I dont even understand what it is asking...
