Poll question: Have you ever nominated a thread to pump up or diss a candidate
Edited on Sun Dec-04-05 11:49 AM by MyPetRock
even if that thread had little merit aside from the fact that it discussed the politician you love or hate?

Come on now, fess up! :D

2. HOW do you nominate a thread?
Is there a secret button in a secret location? Or is it out in the open and I'm not seeing it?

3. I voted for NEVER!
Edited on Sun Dec-04-05 12:02 PM by marbuc
but I would have preferred this option without the exclamation mark. I don't think doing this is necessarily bad, I just haven't done it. I actually like to see passion in support of a candidate, and I think people tend to vote for topics they feel passionate about.

On the flip side, I don't like to see people voting for a forum to diss candidates, unless they feel strongly that information contained within the thread needs to be disseminated.
