    No, but they are handy for talking to other forum members. "Most of us are here for pvp!" "Uh, this poll shows 75/25 the other way."

    Of course, the polls are only of forum members, so it's all a guess how well they reflect the general playerbase. /shrug

    I'd like to believe they have some sort of impact but i very well doubt they do anything.

    No but they get a lot of laughs.
    Especially the ones from the same six people asking the same two questions over and over and over and over and over and over

    Considering most polls go like
    1. Agree with me
    2. You're an idiot

    Not in the slightest.

    I mean they do have an effect but not necessarily the effect people want. They're taken into consideration but people seem to consider anything less than blind obedience from ZOS as ignoring feedback.

    So in that sense I truly do hope polls remain unimpactful.

    I am going with no because of how they're used most often.

    If they're used as a data gathering tool for various opinions or options they can work well.

    However most people use them as something to back up their argument in a belief it makes it more valid, or to try and how the devs how much everyone wants something.

    Polls which have bias answers, have questions that make no sense to choose no on etc.

    1 poll, no, never. A whole bunch of polls though ... well, no never either. Haha.

    They do check the forums daily though so they do get ideas but, let's be honest, if they listened to most of the polls the game would be 10,000 percent worse.

    I'm SO more non-conformist than you, I'm going to be a non-conformist non-conformist and vote no. Take that!

    Player polls are useless, in ANY MMO. Players dont know how to word questions to get the thoughts the game designers want. Heck... some game designer polls are useless, because, even tho they spent a week to design the questions, the first person to comment on them blows away every answer they have in the poll.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.
