Polls................wtf

sunvalleyslim · 10-02-07, 12:12 AM

Ok, So I come on line and I'm thinking what happened.
Just the other day, I think it was Brag said, "Does it seem kind of slow around here, like things are getting boring with the threads.
Next thing I know there's polls on everything, back two years ago, so what gives?
I just worked down in Hollywood on a Jessica Simpson movie called "Major Movie Star".....And I gotta tell you she more exciting than these polls..........

hmm. something dowly said a couple of days ago......:hmm:

Apparently if you vote on a poll it brings the thread back to the top of the list even if you don't post in them.

Brag · 10-02-07, 05:52 AM

This morning I counted 32 blinking polls, most of them ancient stuff. Threads of current interest are getting sunk by polls. Sooooo . . .

Stay out of shallow water!
Stay out of Der Kanal!
Stay out of polls!

Maybe moderators should take a look and see if there are few pranksters out there resurrecting polls. This is getting bad.

I think some bots are performing random votes in the polls. I really doubt that some user is going through all the dang polls from the last 2 years...

Or is he?

I think we have a poll epidemic in hands...

dcb · 10-02-07, 07:07 AM

Rest assured. The epidemics will cease from natural cause. Even if some fellow member here got himself a passion for old polls and started ressurecting them, after he votes in each of them, the polls will once again sink to the bottm, as he'll be left out of "ammunition". Nobody can vote twice in a poll, AFAIK.

anti poll bump

Stierlitz · 10-02-07, 03:49 PM

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