If I were allowed certain privileges again I believe I can semi remove the ability to multi vote:)

Besides time scale wish its rather obvious when someone is skewing the results:) therefore they're omitted from results:)

[perksie]

You have handled this well Liquid, we're really harking back to the old forum when anyone could set up a poll and some were too stupid for words.

[Liquid]

Sorry I misread 😞

Sounds as though I may have enjoyed the previous forum:) haha

[jonsie]

I can't understand why anyone would want to vote more than once, it's supposed to be a fun thing!

There's always Sky+ to record the film of your choice if not selected.

I don't think so, the moderators were ruthless, even imagined when stuff should be removed.

Ask sheepdog, they even closed his account and he lost his post count at around 5000,

[Liquid]

Or just don't join in:)

I've only had to remove 4 votes. Even If they were legit it still hasn't altered the leader as of yet.

Just seems coincidental to have 3 votes for the same movie in 5 minutes haha

wow that's terrible:( I conpletely withdraw previous comment:(

To be honest, that's my concern with polls. I only think we should do it if we can regularly action the results of it.

Polls were frustrating here for a long time.

Noob joins and 1st post is a poll along the lines of "Did O2 rip me off" Yes or No.

However, a blanket ban on everybody creating a poll seems a bit harsh.

I need to reiterate this, when the Superusers were testing this site we were told that we would have additional abilities on the site when it went live. Maybe creating a poll could have been one of them?

[Liquid]

Browni out of pure interest was it you who really likes the taking of pelham123 3 times in 2 minutes? Haha

Or just testing your theory?

i can completely understand the pointless pollhow's however inclined I would be to start a;

justin bieber. Male or female?

[]female

[]male

I don't think a poll was one of them, browni. On most forums it's just something you can start in a thread, but with Lithium, I think you need to 'officially' set it up in the backoffice and you would have a poll in the right panel. Not sure though

[browni]

Yep, it was me a few minutes ago. I tried to quote one of your earlier posts but the forum wouldn't let me! IP Addy ends in .8
