new poll option

**ratdude747** · 12-20-2010, 09:51 AM

I just had an idea... what if an option was added so that one could make a poll with changeable votes? meaning if on a poll i could change my vote if i wanted to... say my opinion changed or i misread the question and voted wrong.

also, it would be cool to be able to add choices to the poll in case there is an option that should have been a choice but wasn't... this often happens with "vote for your favorite ____" polls.

Good idea.

- Submit the suggestion to vBulletin and I'm sure they'll jump right on it.

Kind of pointless really. Once the poll is a few days old and people vote on it, I doubt anyone will come back to take a look at it again.
Besides, polls are pretty much useless outside of VIP and Off-topic forums. I'm sure TC has better things to do than add that stuff.

Yeah, I get a lot of them, too. The best ones come when I'm sitting on the crapper, I kid you not. I guess there's just something special about that place (besides the smell)

Maybe you should try thinking on the crapper.

And no, sarcasm is not invisible on a forum.

**ratdude747** · 12-21-2010, 04:53 PM

yes it is.

if i say "you're a genius" without context, there is no way of knowing what i mean. you can guess...

i do think on the crapper... i think this thread is also heading down the crapper... better grab the plunger!
