Daily/Weekly Polls (suggestion)

It would be nice if there was daily or weekly polls on this site.

Example:

How Polish are you?
1)I live in Poland/born in Poland
2)Born in Poland/live somewhere else
3)Born elsewhere/live in Poland
4)Have Polish family
5)I am not Polish

etc, etc. (Yes I know my example has flaws in it).

What do you think?

there was a period when the forum had polls. i'll just say that i have a negative opinion regarding them.

Was it the negative responses?

Was it a forum based poll where people expressed their issues?

Something else was wrong?

For example, we need Off-Topic Lounge polls if we want to gauge, for instance, who is or would vote for whomever in the 2012 Presidential Election, whether Casey Anthony is actually guilty or innocent, or whether (in the Polonia Forums) one has eaten the (from what I understand) Polander delicacy of horsemeat.

Polls are a good idea. I remember one or two throughout 4 years I have been here.

Besides, they would prevent a lot of arguments on the forums, wouldn't they?

I'd like to know as well.

I want polls too. I asked for them once and the admin/mods said no.
But really it cant get worst than it already is.

One could answer a simple "Yes", "No", "It depends", etc..

They used to be a default option years ago, iirc. What happened? Was that an alleged (cough) forum improvement (cough) which I missed in between usernames?

Polls are a good idea.

I agree

here's one for starters:

Are there too many Jewish threads on PF?

1. Yes
2. No, of course not - I'm the Chief Rabbi
3. Who cares, nickidewbear is a troll

Now now, she's not a troll. No self respecting troll would upload over 500 videos of herself ranting about how people don't like her ;)

Lol, and you don't have to use the Geocitiesizer to remind yourself how the internet looked back in the mid-90s - just look at her blog! haha

her blog!

Oh jeez. I had a look yesterday, and it's just painful. This post - thenicolefactor.blogspot.com/2012/07/from-polishforumscom-my-testimony-in.html - it seems that she's really convinced herself that her entire family is full of evil abusers.

Thats so off topic we don't need to discuss or Poll on it. This supposed to be about Poland not the entire world.

if its so bad here why do you stay?

There are all walks of life, we will never agree with everyone, people say things without filters, when the mods catch
it they do what is needed.

The way I see it, if they make the decision to make a arse of themselfs so what? this isnt jail, its a forum, and people

have opinions we all have to try to respect each other, sometimes thats not a option, we get random idiots , but its a open
forum, i can tell you I was on another forum before I came to this one, and it was far worse, there was a favorite poster, he said

what ever the heck he wanted, it was moderated alright, the forum was boring and uneventful, the people were ok, but one post
out of line and they kicked you out, And it wasnt like this forum,

there are some who get away with stuff, I think the mods give alot of chances to those who do offend and try to get them to stop

but they dont listen, when they do get suspended then people are B*tching that they are gone and its boring in here.

of all the forums THIS POLISH FORUM comes up on top of all the forums, online I dont even need to save to my favs cause its the

TOP of the list online for forums to come to... so those who think its so bad, no one forces you to stay, if you try to keep a open

mind and understand that theres alot of work put into this forum from the beginning, and they do what is necessary to keep it calm

but its like at a soccer game or football game, once one guy tosses a chair all hell breaks loose, its hard to control the crowd!!

No, we do not need Polls, otherwise we'll have 50,000 opinions.
