    There have been one or two interesting ones but most of the time forum polls are banal and irritating.

    I think the polls on dp are ususally good hard hitting questions that make webmasters really think!

    well except for this one...

    Wait, I voted in a poll and selected they are irritating. But if they are irritating, why did I vote? :confused:

    Minstrel - You should start a poll to see what the most popular poll was

    That's dumb. ;) I'm going to start a poll to show that DPers don't want Minstrel to start a poll to see what the most popular poll was.

    And then I'll start another poll asking people to vote on whether they prefer my polls or HodgedUp's poll.

    It could really be a playoff type system. Select 16 people to start polls. Then run a poll of which of those they prefer. Have the 8 remaining do a second poll, with a second round of playoffs after that. Crown an eventual poll champeeeen.

    Funny enough I once fopund a site like that it was brilliant. They put the oddest things up against each other with great descriptions.

    I laughed really hard when I saw it...Its a thread here somewhere
