Remove Polls from Sugs and Bugs

Post by blakebowling »

Concise description:
  • Make it so no polls can be added or posted in Sugs and Bugs
Specifics:
  • Change forum permissions to not allow users to make polls in this forum
This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • admins have already said that they don't look at votes, they read the feedback
  • stop me being prompted "Yes or No" before I even read the suggestion

what are you gonna say if i say that i want to see what the poll results are ?
it is not only OPs who eveluate the ideas but all of us and some of us wud like to see such poll results.
OPs have the power to judge and decide to put in to be done list of these any suggestions to be different from us, but in other means these suggestions are open to all of us. Again, i personally like to see what ppl votes.
And i am wonder to know what is wrong with a poll with you ? What is it that irritates you with a pole ?
Poles are cold but cool.

Polls are actually better, or so i hear. One thing I heard from a mod once, was that when lack looks at suggestions, he looks for suggestions with positive feed back and that look like they're being refined. So higher post count = more people challenging the idea, molding it, and pushing it towards a finalized idea, AND he looks at public acceptance, demonstrated with people randomly posting "i like it, gogogogogo", and through polls.

Personally, I think reasoned arguments carry more weight than misleading and biased questions (the results of which do not stand up to any statistical rigour)

But in this case, I think Timminz is right - let's settle this with a poll...
