I have a question. Or 2. etc. When you create a poll, do you immediatly have a new topic with it? When you create a poll, how do you set it up? I did look in the faq part, but it didn't say anything about polls.

There's a button that says "new poll" by the "post reply" and "new topic" buttons. Click that, and it's pretty self-explanatory from there. It's pretty easy.

You can click on "New Poll" and see at least a couple of screens before it actually posts the thing. I just tried it and could click "Continue" at least twice before anything happened. Then I got scared and stopped. That's probably the best way to answer your question: try it yourself (but don't actually post anything). -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Just be careful if you're planning to actually make a poll, since you can't edit them once they've been created. Make sure it's logical, you have everything spelled correctly, etc. Hmm. Dikiyoba has never actually tried to make a poll either. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

Kelandon is supposed to be an oldbie. Accidentally posting an empty poll "just to test something" is noobish behavior. Although since Kel is a mod, he could have just done this there and deleted the topic afterwards. Nobody would know. :P Edit: Could have did, indeed.

Just because you can make a poll does not mean you should make a poll. Actually, that goes for most kinds of posting, but polls most of all. —Alorael, who has had several ideas for new threads to start and even a genuinely marginally interesting poll. Then he realizes that he'd be destroying his carefully cultivated image as one who starts no threads and refrains. Inertia is a terrible thing.

Well, I know now how to make a poll by expirience. Just look at the Geneforge 4 forum. -------------------- I can transform into almost anything, though not sanity. Muffins n' Hell. Note that revisions of the first part is down the list. Posts: 1799 | Registered: Sunday, February 4 2007 08:00 |
