Polls

Post by dalyc »

Hi all, if people are going to open polls, can you leave them open for longer than 5 minutes so people who aren't on Nicks 24/7 can vote?

The most recent one was the 9 pointer one. Only 12 votes in total. I'm not saying that the mods are closing them prematurely. I think (?) when someone creates a poll they get to set a time period to leave it open for. It just seems to me that this period is being set too short.

I'll go through the process of setting one up just to test that what I'm saying is right.

Just checked this and yes there is a parameter to set the number of days a poll is open for.

I never understand these comments...

You know you can still see this thread in GD? And if you go into it you get taken here? You don't have to only be in feedback to see it.
