We had a poll about this.
"Ban polls" lost

so no real discussion then?
― mully, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 12:38 (5 years ago) Permalink
why don't we have something like "no poll november?"
then it'll fail after five days and we can forget this idea.

There are 17 polls on the ILM new answers page. Time to reconsider this again. Maybe limit every user to five new polls per month or something?
I dunno, these idiot BAND A versus BAND B polls are, well, idiotic.

Weird how polls on ILE are mostly imaginative and generally classic and ILM polls are like zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

There's comparatively few on ILE.
Hmm, wonder what the ILTMI ones are like...

BAN POLOS - nobody should be making a mint in these times of global recession!
If there are so many polls, apparently it means most ILM users want them. If they irritate you, you don't have to read them.

yes.
When the eshow started all those years ago, I quite liked MLam, by the time of the last series he did I was "No! Shoot him now!!"
Now? It's worth watching again. Which is nice. (Agreed, Last weeks was good, and I and my wife watched it from different parts of the country, usually she can't be ebothered with it...)
