I would like to see the poll run off the Admin area and a memo on each forum to allow members who do not come here know they can vote and a poll is up. I know and I guess I should have stated this but I thought it was a given...that Dr Bob would not necessarily use the poll for anything more than the pulse of the members who DO vote. They would be able to vote within this area thus those who are registered only would be able to vote and they would already be signed in.
The reason I feel it would not be good to have too much in the way of posts on it ..is because recently I was at another site (I have seen this often anyhow) and someone had a poll per the owner of that site. Fights started because some would vote and then say why they said no....then the person who posted the poll would post back to them and it became a debate and justification issue. Some voters felt pressured and the results were messed up..I do not post there but I can see how a simple yes or no or even no opinion could have been useful. This is as always just from my experience and from my viewpoint. I think it would be interesting.
