Polls vs Thread's Being Highjacked

Alanmcd · 08-12-2012, 06:56 PM

Is there a way to do polls on this forum? I've notice that most threads on this site seem get horribly highjacked, moreso than any other forum I'm a member of and am thinking a poll for some questions might be a better way to get answers on here rather than just asking a question and having it quickly stray off in some other direction.

Yes, under "Additional Options" there is an option to make the thread a poll.

I would answer your question about threads vs polls, but it reminds me of segway transmissions, and how they can go forward and back, but not many people seem able to fix them. Luckily, they don't break much...

I am just being a joker. ( and making believe that I am hijacking the thread)

As SegNerd says, you can surely have a poll. But there is also not much guarantee that it will not be hijacked as well.
