I was beginning to get excited - there was a stretch of time when I did not have to do much monitoring. Polls had a variety of topics and creators finally. And most importantly, they were about music!
Now not singling anyone out, but lately people have ignored the first guideline and opened irrelevant polls. We have not been issuing warnings for minor violations before, but if things get out of hand, we will start doing so.

AA, I think you're being a bit harsh.

3. Each member is allowed to create at most 3 polls per day. However, each poll created by the same member within a given day must be of a different topic, with none of the answers being repeated among those 3 polls. (This also means the subject of one of your polls cannot be an answer choice in another one of your polls in a given day and vice versa.) Basically, your 3 polls in a given day cannot overlap in content AT ALL.
Did not see this one until now. Every Sunday I make polls the reflect the CHR/Top 40 recurrents/purges and what AllAccess has listen under 'Cool New Music' for the format as well. That can usually total up to 4-7 polls. So does this mean I have to start combining my recurrent/purge polls into one? I will certainly be able to do it, but the poll would look a little cluttered.

Hey guys, I just wanted to make a note about a problem I've been noticing over the past few months in regards to replies to polls.
If a poll topic doesn't interest you, ignore it. Don't reply to it. Please do not disparaging remarks about how much you don't care about the poll or how irrelevant you find it to be (you know what I'm basically talking about here - the dreaded "no1curr", but any similar posts apply as well). These posts are really just asking to start trouble, and they offer absolutely nothing to the discussion. Obviously, this technically violates Pulse's rules as it is (the "no nonsense posts" rule), but since it's such a common issue in The Polling Booth, I thought it deserved a mention. From here on out, instances of this will result in a warning.

Oops just saw this...
Only a moderator can close a poll on their own I believe, but you can set a date for the poll to close when you make it.

Hmm... define "many." If you had to post one new poll a day, that would be fine. But if you needed to post 250 polls within one week, that would be not fine.

There are around 30-50 categories, but I can combine some of them to make around 15-25, and I could post 3 of them each day, does that work?

Can there be a rule about having 26 posts on the front page from the same user? I think 7-10 should be the maximum

I never realized this irritated anyone until now.

Stealing my thunder. :'( lol If there's anything I missed or misplaced, let me know.
I moved all of the "song A vs. song B" polls between mid-September and now to the new Face-Off subforum. A question for those who frequent the Polling Booth more than I do: should the new subforum include album polls? multi-song polls? artist polls?

Page 1: Blvd. Of Broken Dreams vs. Breakaway Page 2: Hips Don't Lie vs. Let's Get It Started, Be Without U vs. U Got It Bad So 3 total.

No. "Face Off" is a great idea for these random song battles. Anything that's a comparison more for the sake of an actual discussion should stay in the main, imo. Thank you btw! This is awesome.

I agree with allow that. Some of the songs moved to the Face Off area I feel are more discussion-oriented and should go in the main area. However, if Face Off gets as much traffic as the main area, then it shouldn't really be a big deal about where those types of polls go.

I basically moved over a bunch of "x vs. x" threads until I couldn't properly see "vs." anymore, but if I misplaced some that have more substantial discussion, go ahead and PM those links to me and I'll move them back.
