dham, I think that is an important distinction.
this proposal isn't for polls ... "hey, what do ya think of this idea?"
we've got that already. although it's seldom used, because members prefer to sound off in a reply post if they agree or disagree ...
what i'm talking about here is a RATING mechanism that will tell the "audience" i.e. members + guests, what the members who have read a thread think of its value as a thread in the forum.
essentially ... is this a good discussion? ... or is this thread a waste of time?
i was proposing to make the implementation of such a proposal easy for UT by utilizing the existing software polls in as a way to RATE the threads ... because, it is really unnecessary to have polls for this type of community ... the ideas and opinions for and against anything are really expressed in the posts of the threads.
that's what i think, at this point, anyway.
