As you may have noticed, we have been running one poll per day for the past several weeks. What do you think?

* I like 1 poll per day
* I want to see more polls per day
* I want all polls to go away
etc.

It's horrible and you should feel horrible.
Bring back the polls!

Sho Boki Sponsoring Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 1:23 a.m. PST

As I sit on Forums only, I don't noticed. But accidently saw the word "Waterloo" and give my first vote.
Anything to do at least, as talking about miniatures on Forums is now forbidden.

I hadn't noticed most of the polls, if it looks interesting I have a look and vote, but that isn't often.

ZULUPAUL Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 2:54 a.m. PST

I'd rather have more polls per day. Most of them peak my interest.

Personal logo 20thmaine Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 4:31 a.m. PST

One or more a day would be my preference.

Personal logo Flashman14 Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 4:41 a.m. PST

I thought we did three to get through the large backlog? Now that suggestions expire, the log is manageable, right?

DisasterWargamer Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 6:02 a.m. PST

3 or 4 feels right

warwell08 Sep 2019 6:19 a.m. PST

I prefer 1

The Nigerian Lead Minister08 Sep 2019 6:26 a.m. PST

3 or 4. I find them entertaining.

Tommy2008 Sep 2019 7:25 a.m. PST

I prefer one a day. Thanks!

Florida Tory08 Sep 2019 7:36 a.m. PST

Lots of polls, please!

Rick

Brownand08 Sep 2019 8:14 a.m. PST

I want all polls to go away

Devil Dice08 Sep 2019 8:26 a.m. PST

Depends on the nature of the polls, but more frequent polls are needed if the backlog is getting too great
We don't seem to have got round to the one asking us to vote on the recent Hobby News policy change so I'm guessing that's still in the queue?

rustymusket08 Sep 2019 9:04 a.m. PST

I did not notice the frequency and pass over some of the polls. The only thing I noticed is that you, Bill, seem to be bringing up somewhat politically charged subjects. That was a surprise to me.

Ragbones08 Sep 2019 10:31 a.m. PST

I like more than one a day.

Oberlindes Sol LIC Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 10:44 a.m. PST

I think you should run a poll on this question!

…as talking about miniatures on Forums is now forbidden.

Please don't exaggerate.

I thought we did three to get through the large backlog?

It varies. We tried 10 per day, anyone remember that? More recently, it was 4 per day.

Not sure what you are referring to. Formerly, I would try to add one poll suggestion per day to make sure we have enough in the queue, but I have discontinued that practice.

I think you should run a poll on this question!

Well, this is on the Poll Suggestions board! grin

rustymusket08 Sep 2019 11:39 a.m. PST

Bill,
I looked back and it must have been over a week ago. I will just withdraw my comment, since I cannot find the ones I thought I remembered. Ignoring that, I have no problems with the way you run you site. I come her for soldiers and military history and I don't care about polls.

Frederick Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 1:26 p.m. PST

I prefer a couple a day

Wargamer Blue08 Sep 2019 3:58 p.m. PST

Many a day.

von Schwartz08 Sep 2019 5:40 p.m. PST

Poles?! Poles?! where are the dancers??!

Uesugi Kenshin Supporting Member of TMP08 Sep 2019 9:14 p.m. PST

About 2 a day is a good rate.

Red Jacket Supporting Member of TMP09 Sep 2019 7:42 a.m. PST

More than one per day.

SultanSevy09 Sep 2019 10:05 a.m. PST

2 per day seems good…

Shagnasty Supporting Member of TMP09 Sep 2019 11:35 a.m. PST

I like lots of polls.

JimSelzer09 Sep 2019 1:14 p.m. PST

5 per day

Karellian Knight09 Sep 2019 3:52 p.m. PST

I like polls, 3-5 a day would be nice.

Personal logo Sgt Slag Supporting Member of TMP10 Sep 2019 10:55 a.m. PST

I enjoy most of the polls, if they deal with a genre I enjoy. The others, I mostly ignore, same as I do with topics I don't care about. No input on frequency. Sorry. Cheers!

Deucey Supporting Member of TMP20 Sep 2019 3:27 p.m. PST

I actually come to TMP to check out the polls.

Seriously.

I do.

I thought "we" ( I mean an earlier generation by "We" but instead my folks, who had Irish Republic passports anyways, so bombs missed them…. Except for my mom in Hong Kong in late 41) fought WWII for the Poles and then we abandoned them after the whole thing was over.

But that is a different thread. Like Belgium….Poles were just in the wrong place throughout history.

I want all Polls to go away was said above. Depending on spelling, there are a few of us would not agree on that, if it meant no more referenda. But, if it means no more folks coming here, from a country that has contributed so much to this land, then welcome Poles. But no more Polls please…total mistake.

Spelling.
