A Poll about Polls...

Just some friendly ribbing... Wink

Oh, and the question was supposed to end "...do you want to:"

Lol - nice one prouton

Agreed.

Some of his polls can tend towards the eccentric, but you do get the occasional one which breaks out into something worthwhile or funny... Smile

Maybe tipster has another job on the side where he sells polling data. Big Grin

It does break the monotony sometimes though!

I was hoping maybe that sub would have turned it off during his absence.

I can't complain too much as I have posted a few polls myself.

We have an interesting world-wide group of people here and some of the polls can be thought provoking. Silly polls are easily ignored but they do knock other (possibly more relevant) posts down the line.

I think of the polls as us taking a break and hanging out at the water cooler. It's a great community, why not chew the fat...?

Wallpaper in a bathroom :confused:
Use tiles, only remove the wallpaper and off you go ! easy cleaning too.

Back on topic, I like polls. Shows how people from diffrent parts of the world feel about various topics. Serious , less serious or total BS topics.... all fine by me, although one of Tipstirs polls (Is GBPVR in your kitchen?) was cut off by Sub

Me too. I wonder what any new user (such as those that could come here from the schedules direct "approved apps" page - people that have struggled with myth?) must think. It's getting like digg.

It's one thing to post in the general discussion section - everyone does from time to time - but IMHO this is getting out of hand; not even tangentially related to pvrs, media centers, etc..

Just a waste of bandwidth. Sorry.
