    It would be very boring if the whole world thought alike and always agreed, however, i think there are limits.

    I don't want a guy who i have everything in common with, whats there to talk about?

    But seriously, it's seems some people really need to go out and "buy" a sense of humour at times.

    Hurting others feelings, is one sure way where this applies, internet or not.

    But , me i don't like a swallow. I go for the big birds...I said that before.
    I am all for a good time! Hate a "dry" sense of humour.

    Most polls, internet or otherwise, are intentionally biased by the wording of the questions. That's because the person paying for a poll usually wants a specific answer. It's a standard political and marketing tool.

    BTW, Madcap, I like your stuff even if we don't always agree. Keep up the good work. Maybe I should try margaritas instead of wine sometime.

    lol, a poll about polls! Mmmmm, I like poles, especially when they're long and hard... :tongue:

    Seriously, I don't mind polls. It's kinda cool to see what everyone thinks about different things.

    It depends what you are seeking from the polls. The one Pryce circulated about who you would like as a sponsor is effective. It asks everyones opinion who's on this site. Obviously ,the one's who are on this site are the ones' who will respond so it reaches who it's meant to .
    All polls are meant to gather some information. Some are more effective than others, it depends upon the poll author. When one writes a poll they have to consider if it reaches the correct correspondents. Just like marketing polls only want the users of their product. You have to consider your responders as well. Take this site for example. While we have a pretty good diversity of correspondents its usually a select group that answers. Have any of you been in a college discussion group? If you have you'll notice that only the most outspoken, opinionated people speak the lion's share of the time and seldom do you hear a peep from the majority who are content just to get their credit. So polls don't always reflect the majority opinion.
    There are several things each pollster has to take into account. The standard deviation, the demographics, size of sample etc. THe wording is very important. As you know by political polls they can be worded so as to get whatever response they want, even if they contradict each other! What they should be concerned about is ,how well does the poll measure what they're supposed to.
    Polls are an important part of our life. Without them businesses wouldn't know what to sell us and governments wouldn't know how to govern us. I just answer the one's I think are pertinent to my life.

    I agree with Dreamer. This poll was nothing more than silly, so it seemed. So it received silly answers.
