i think it should be disabled for any1 that has less than 100 posts or (since some people silent but wise like mods) it should be allowed after being on the forum for one week. Becuase there is always going to be noobs that don't read the WELCOME AND BOARD RULES thread. So there should be some kind of exeption.

i don't use polls either and new members come to the boards and don't even know how the heck to work the polls and then they screw it up...so i think it would be fair to just leave it where it is.

No. This board is full of NOTHING but spamming users with X vs. Y polls and bringing polls back would only make it worse. I'm honestly glad I didn't get picked as a mod when I applied because I would snap on people here all the time. I can't stand this place and its why I haven't posted in nearly a month and a half, if not more. I'm disappointed at the way this board has turned out. I had hope for it in the beginning, but due to the lack of moderating here the entire board has become nothing more than a cluttered, filthy spam hole.

I'm ashamed that this is the official Midway board.

I agree with DAVE101 that the polls should be brought back, but there should be some kind of exception. That way newbies wouldn't be able to abuse them.

True, or just say if you misuse the polls you will be banned for good.
Rather than only allow people to post polls if they have 100 posts, because 100 can easily be built up.

Like you said in that Legend post i had about 12 in just about 30minutes, aswell as that topic i was also posting in others so during that 30 minutes i probably made about 30 posts.

But duff polls can easily be deleted by admin's and then whoever made that poll would be gone for good.

I disagree with Xhenphire though, i am not ashamed of this official midway forum, ever since i joined it has done exactly what i ask of a forum.

To chat to fello MK lovers, find info about future or past games, to find out more about MK characters etc..
I have found nothing bad about this forum except for we do occasionally get a few same threads but no harm in the occasional one.
It probably p*sses off people who have been on here so long that have probably seen the same topics about 10 times but thats down to newbies rather than jacka$$es

Lets cry about it. I'm sure that the people that are in control of this site are not worrying about what people are commenting on there boards. Forums like this help them with there sales. So they dont care whats going on.
