Does anyone else think there are too many polls around here?

After returning to these forums post Vanilla migration, I have noticed an alarming number of poll threads. Polls on the Internet are always held up to be far more scientific and accurate than they really are. Including this one. Which probably ought to be closed before someone gets parts of their clothing ensemble badly compressed in an awkward part of their body. Anyways, this is me making fun of polls. Which I find laughable at best and outright self serving lies at worst. Enjoy!

Yes. Because being part of a vast anonymous consensus stifles my individuality

No. Without polls, my sense of self importance goes into complete collapse.

All of the above. Because there should always be a nonsense answer.

    I agree, this thread should be closed.

    wow. I'm truly shocked. You agreed with me about something. Painful, wasn't it?

    Lucky for me you seem to be yet another in an endless series of forum warriors I've see over the years. Because if you could actually do something I'd have to lose about five or six seconds of sleep over it.

    Polls about Polls will usually be Closed.

    After seeing these type of thread, I'm starting to think polls are fine... But polls about polls are annoying, and should not be allowed. My opinion.

    In before the lock to protest the lock. Don't like polls? Don't vote on them. Noone is forcing you.
    They're not really gone, as long as we remember them

    Again, meta poll missing a 'sod off with pointless meta polls' option.​​

    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    3 polls per character? How would that work? the forum doesn't seem to have a way to determine which of our posts were made by each of our characters.
