Forum polls

Post by Devrah Windslasher ~ »

Why are polls disabled in all OOC boards, but enabled in the IC boards? This seems the exact opposite of what would make the most sense, since polls don't seem to be being used as an effective IC tool at all. My suggestion is to disable polls in the IC forums, and possible enable them in some of the OOC forums instead.

Indeed I second this motion of the removel of polls in ig forums...ROPIIF for short and would also like to add that this is the second example I have seen of awful RPG forum polls and i've only seen two.

It is true that polls are an OOC tool. It really does make no sense as to why we can use them in IC forums, but not OOC ones.

So how do we vote for a city leader,or anything liek that so that our characters know it.I think you just got problems in your childness.There were voting in real life,and this game looks like the medieval real life,WAKEN UP!maybe i like fun too much but if the characters talk like if they would i say nearly all pools should be accepted.OOC should not for complains of thoses that only do that((Liles in particular)).

OOC is used only in my eyes to correct newbies of complain. I don't think i've ever seen a poll quite as stupid as the one you have put forth and I feel many people agree with me on that point.

If you don't like me complaining others will stop me...But us flamers are saying that poll was useless...

I'm in that mood because being called childish when I know such a poll is a mockery of the RPG forums annoys me.

The poll that got locked was the stupidest poll in the history of polls, and you're defending it Arameh_. The fact of the matter is that there ARE NO computerized polls in the atmosphere of the game and so signing your name or choice to a piece of damned parchment is enough. Not to mention who gives a frig about who is the most hated badass? No one. Get over yourself. The rest of us have.

I really wouldn't want to know you -.- I'd meet liles before you :P. And Yes, the Polls in the IC forums and not on the OOC forums is rather stupid and odd. I would Opt for the reverse, but that's just me.

Forum polls have ONE problem.. they are silent.

So if you want to vote for a new king, ANYONE with a forum account can do so... ;)
