And more zombie polls keep appearing, this looks like a malicious campaign by some immature or retarded twit.

I tried to bump up a number of non-poll threads. When I checked how this clean area looked, my bumps were already sinking under the onslaught of the polls.


Moderators, help!!!!
:damn:

This is getting ridiculous. The mods should definitely do something. :shifty:

I just examined the faq and it says something about "timelimit"...

Just a lesson to be learened: set a time limit and that's it!
There is no need for any poll to stay open until year 5 after we established contact, isn't it?

Is it possible to enforce it upon the owner of a poll to set a limit ?

please do something. People are abusing it. Thank you!

Maybe we need a poll? :D

But you also responded to the polls, posting as well as voting which is as bad IMHO.

Options for the admins?
 

Because the topics are still valid and enabled.
And to state my opinion clear: polls are not bad!
end a poll: fine, end is end
shut down polls at all: fine, no polls anymore, missing feature, at least because of the pure numbers of participants
keep polls open ended: fine, but please do not complain..

The possible ruleset (options) is up to the forum admins, and as long a poll poster can choose she/he will do it, educated or not but it will be definitly up to him.

I start a list of further options how the admins can react:
*) do nothing
*) shut down polls at all (both extremes ;D )
*) move polls in seperated areas
*) enforce timelimits
....
*) there a maybe more, please continue


EDIT***
*) offer a personalized ignore-filter like (poll*) or (buzzword,_i_don't_want_to_read*)

Time for the reintroduction of Poll Tax :arrgh!:
