| Polls are next to pointless here on basil. With only 4 options, there aren't many questions you can ask. I'd like to see more slots available. You know? Spice things up a little bit. This will allow us to create broader polls, with more results. Vote and post "yes" or "no" You may add commentary or justifications. Don't be rude. |

| Well, a bigger poll means more room for people to be dumb. Ever hear this one? Which celebrity is better, X or Y? Poll 1: X Poll 2: Y Poll 3: Zomg mudkipz You see, there's a problem there. The TS is not going to get an accurate reading, because most people will choose choice 3 because of an obscure reason. |

That's irrelevant. People can make polls how they wish, so long as it doesn't violate the rules. You don't have to vote on threads like that if you think they are being immature. So because some people make polls with an extra choice that isn't relevant... that should ruin it for the rest of us? Should that be the reason that we can't create bigger polls? |

| There should be a least 4, and then 5 and + is optional. EDIT: Actually a least 2. 3 and above is optional. |

| More would be great- I'd like six, and then maybe they could all be a different colour? |

| Personally, I feel like I need 20 sometimes. Say I wanted to know opinions on the best comedy movie. You can't just settle with 4 of them. There are ways around people abusing the system and just making it a long poll where you literally have to scroll down for minutes. There has to be some sort of limit. Either way... 4 IS NOT enough. |
