AYE (what the hell, unless it costs more than the emiprical value of a poll as defined by a chosen subset of board members, cuz you know, we don't want to pay more than a poll is 'worth'!)

I'd like to say NO, but doing so would suggest that, in fact, I actually DO want to participate in polls.
 
 So I will abstain.

no sure about implementing a search feature, the board is already choking enough as it is...
 
 polls like signatures make forums tacky...
 
 me and the people behind the curtain have recently considered a forum replacement, no timeframe set forth yet.

Nay, Nay, Nay, Nay
 
 They are SO annoying and take up all kinds of room.  I'm also glad we don't use avatars...though I'm sure folks will disagree.

Have to agree on this.
 
 Nay on sigs.. Can you just imagine how much extra scrolling we'd have to do!?
 
 If the forum is replaced, can we archive what we have here? I really don't want to lose it.....nor my lowly member number.
Title: Re: Poll, please can we enable polls?
Post by: kosmo vinyl on July 12, 2005, 12:01:00 pm
archives, numbers, are all things that need be considered... why do think it's going to take some time to put in place.

I'm with him.
 
 
 Polls enabled would be great then we could have a poll about whether we wanted polls and we wouldn't have to count the hanging chads.

Uh, oh. With Bags and Hoya being from Florida, does that mean that they will be getting all of the good bribes?

Nay on Polls because they will simply get ridiculous and carry no weight.  A waste of time if you ask me, which is not what this board is about (tongue planted firmly in cheek)...
 
 Nay on search function because I love testing my institutional memory.  Remember more folks.
 
 Nay on signatures because we are above that here.  Is it not enough that you can change your screen name as often as you want?
 
 Nay on new board software.  Update the software (UBB 6.7 Beta is strong) and the hardware.

Is this the 6.7 version of Classic or a new verion of Threads?  
 
 There is murmurs of a Next Generation product from Groupee/Infopop any insight?
 
 With digging to deep Invision seems to one to explore first.  One of key requests for the new forum sw is to be able to see thread view counts which UBB.Classic doesn't do with a hack.

The most current version of Ubb.Classic is 6.7.2.  With an up to date license, the update should be free.

 Sorry, I no longer beta test for Infopop.  But yes, Infopop has had a new software on the horizon for sometime that is supposed to integrate the best features of Classic and Threads. I'll see if I can get more info from them.  I believe the beta is already out.

 Great feature, and with the new Infopop software supposedly integrating the features of Threads and Classic, it sounds like it will be in the new Infopop software (it's in Threads).  Of course, I don't know this for certain.
 
 Of course, I may not want to know that nobody views my brilliant posts on the industry that matter, or my brilliant posts that don't matter like my Britney Spears updates, whichever is the case.
