Polls

What's up with all these private polls? Are they afraid of letting people know how you voted.

gosh darn....

i thought this was going to be another poll without an other/i don't care option.

Lets have a poll then;

People are afraid other people will see how they voted

People love it when people see what they vote

I don't care (for Jebtb16)

Some folks will stalk, harass, and worse when someone does something as small as disagree with them on a forum. Thus, I tend to make all of my polls private, unless there's some really relevant reason to make it public, such as facilitating communication.

you make a fair point there.

do you always include the equivalent of a 'none of the above' option though? i know the easy answer is - well, don't vote then - but it can be an issue you care about but not along the lines of the vote itself.

If I make a poll where the options are not clear, I would probably never add an "I don't care" option, because the answer most certainly is "don't care, don't vote", but I would usually add an "Other" option for those who cared but had different views.
