New Poll

[Wing Nut]

Are you tired of polls?

[Scottler]

LMAO!!!  I couldn't have said it better myself!

[fisharno]

I had a really good idea for ANOTHER poll. But, you did a much better, (cleaner) job of it.

[Birdie2112]

reminds me of when I was in the 6th grade and working on the school newspaper.

3/4 of the articles the kids wrote were polls

[Ronnie]

I don't really mind them too much.

[fisharno]

Honestly, they serve there purpose. It's a good way to get opinions from a lot of folks at once.

And opinions help drive this hobby.

[Scottler]

Yes, but there comes a point where you start to secretly wish that the creator of the poll would form their OWN opinions once in a while, ya know?

Polls are great, provided they aren't the sole source of your inspiration.

A note to all that are tired of polls, guess what? You don't have to answer them!

Quit complaining, if you don't want to respond to a poll... don't.  If you don't want to read the question(s) that a poll presents, don't.

Don't take something away from people that don't mind answering them... Just because you, the individual doesn't like them.

Read this quote from Fisharno:

I think that somes it up.

[Scottler]

You're right, we don't HAVE to answer them.  But we do HAVE to see them, and when you log in to SimV with the hopes of asking for/offering assistance, and the entire first page is full of polls, it's time to wonder if something should change.  

[Wing Nut]

Dude, lighten up, it was only a joke!  

[Scottler]

I presume Dread isn't talking to me, because as my  ;) clearly indicates, I'm as light as they come...

[BMan1113VR]

i am not tired of polls at all. . .easier than responding generally. . .also fun to see what everyone else thinks. . . with out having to add it up by yourself

[Fly2e]

Does anybody have a POLL up their *@*^!

[Smoke2much]

I think this was probably meant in a light hearted fashion, so I have voted as such.  I believe polls are best left in the cafe/discussion forums (fora??) as this bit seems to be for fs2k2 faq.

Some polls annoy me and I ignore them but some are great and the answers can be surprising.

We need a break from our joysticks and it's good to intereact with other sims.
I would say though, I think polls should run longer, no sooner than I've opened one than polling seems to finish. And I can't log in everyday and I miss my say.  :-X

(like my views worth two cents  :P)

Happy landings
Phil
