Is it possible to post a poll?

Is it possible to post a poll? I wanted to post a poll to assess what other members make of some of the posts........ For example.... I have read many posts where someone asks a question and other members ridicule them only to be abused in return.... for example........ Like this post Lets be honest and admit if we all acted our age's instead of our shoe sizes then none of this would happen? What do you think of this? Is this a sane point? Or is it just flossing in the wind and no one gives a monkey's ass about etiquette? From a Mature member EDIT: The thread which says HOW TO POST A QUESTION at the top of nearly every forum states that sarcasm and abuse isnt tolerated...... Yet in approximately 1 in 10 posts there is abuse and sarcasm and bad etiquette... So the forum moderators ought o back up their words. Thats my view for whats its worth. I think etiquette is important, after all we all want to be treated nicely and with courtesy and respect as others expect us to treat them the same way.

The example you show is a typical example of a question from someone who is just too lazy/stupid to think about the problem they are trying to solve and explain it in a reasonably detailed way. So the answers are all quite valid, and may teach them to think a bit more.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

So what is the point of the website admn writing the followin statements? if theyre rendered invalid? QUOTE: ====== When answering a question please: 1.Read the question carefully 2.Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar 3.If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or mark it down. Insults are not welcome 4.If the question is inappropriate then click the 'vote to remove message' button Insults, slap-downs and sarcasm aren't welcome. Let's work to help developers, not make them feel stupid. cheers, Chris Maunder Do you not think that there was insult and slapdown and abuse present in that thread? Or is it just me? Maybe everyone else doesnt care? or have no etiquette or just want to brush it under the carpet?

Possibly, but everyone has their own measure of what is or is not abuse.
