Polltarding
I don't like the rule against making"stupid" polls in OOT. I might be a little biased because I actively encourage polltarding in Politics [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] but it really doesn't accomplish anything. Pretty much any post can be made funnier or better by including a poll. It certainly doesn't make a post worse or more annoying.
The results are usually at least mildly amusing plus its fun to participate in a thread even if you don't have anything intelligent to put into a post. Bring back the polls!

Re: Polltarding
iron,
polls encourage zero-content, zero-effort posts that don't generate good discussion or offer any insight into the topic. they are also more or less totally meaningless. there is no ban on making a good poll. it's just that there are so many bad polls and bad posters who are polltards that there needs to be a specific clause in the OOT sticky to address it.

whoa, why is this in here now? [/ QUOTE ] I moved it because iron's OP starts with this: [ QUOTE ] I don't like the rule against making "stupid" polls in OOT. [/ QUOTE ] Since he's green, this is definitely something that belongs more in the mod forum than AtF, but it's not a big deal to me either. If Mat spots this and thinks it would be fine for AtF, I won't mind him moving it back at all.
