Is it possible to post polls in this forum?

It is useful feature and most forums allow it. It is also helpful to see what members think on some topics (like EV related discussions) whether there is any majority for something or people are evenly split.

Sorry no. It was done years ago but that was utilising an external hosting site.

I found this link from the past: www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=63599

Nothing to stop you setting up a manual poll though, asking a question to which people just reply YES, NO, DON'T KNOW etc.

Not as neat but might work. People wouldn't be able to vote anonymously though which could be an issue.

I'd rather polls etc weren't anonymous, one should stand by ones principles and be damned to what anyone else thinks.

Most posters on here use usernames so would still be pretty anonymous...I'm assuming your real name is not Gordon Bennet so are you not being annonymous as well?

Are you saying your surname is 1302?

No, I'm saying my surname is not 1302 as I'm Anonymous...as much as you can be on the internet...so probably not that much really...
