    Poll bumps

    It may be a good idea to turn off the option that bumps a poll to the top of the page whenever a vote is cast. Personally, I use the "View new posts" feature as a matter of course and I hate it when I end up rereading a bunch of polls when there are no new posts in the threads.

    So far I see 5 people have voted to disable this. I wonder how many more didn't vote because they didn't want to bump this poll :upside

    [I wonder even how many more people didn't vote because I posted this in the wrong place. Would a mod please move this to Feedback :) ]

    I never noticed that a thread gets bumped, I guess it really doesn't matter, but if I had to choose between the two I'd just pick disable it.

    hell there are only like 15 of us down here now and it takes forever to keep up. With thousands coming and they will because this is a great little playgound, let's make it as easy as we can.
    By the way the company so far down here has been excellent, kind of a private club. Let's hope everyone catches the tone.

    Yeah it's really irritating when some dipshit bumps an old poll for no good reason.
