Re: [Xbox] Re: New poll for Xbox

Heh, well quality is far better than quantity for sure! So I understand
that one. And Proph always says no, he hates everything! LOL I was
just offering a bit of a trick I'd discovered that lets you make like a 'Poll
Mod' who couldn't do anything else, let them have at it instead of putting
it on you two. Trust me, you know I know what a PIA managing groups
is!

I used to respond to the Polls until I figured out they weren't really
more than what someone else said - gauges that sometimes turn into
heated discussions here or worse, worthless. So I stopped using them
here, another factor was when there was more than one or a decent
answer was left out, etc.

No one responded for being a Mod? Not one?? That's stunning even
to me, I'd have figured you had a line of disqualified out the door more
than absolute zero!
