It has gone a bit crazy in the poll section just now. About 10 new similar ones simultaneously. same as yesterday. People who do one or two polls get swamped and soon go to the next page. Someone have a word with this f**kyaki guy.

I have a proposal: delete all of the Yes vs. Genesis vs. Rush [vs. prog band 4, vs. prog band 5...] polls, and create one huge poll for everyone to vote in, which will be tacked to the top of the polls section so nobody WILL EVER NEED TO MAKE ANOTHER ONE EVER.

Agreed. Fair and highly reasonable answer.
I agree with the poll limitation too, 2-3 is perfect.

If we allowed polls to be created there then it would rapidly fill with polls about who should or should not be included in PR and PP - and frankly we don't need them. Making polls in General Music and having them moved is fine for us - we don't mind being asked to move those polls and we don't complain about moving them - this way we get to vet what polls are created for Prog Related and Proto Prog. |
Fair enough. I thought it may have been an oversight. I am not passionate about this. Limiting the amount of polls though......

At first I didn't get it either. Now I do. I firmly support the inabilty to make polls in Prog Related. |
Why is that? Do I just keep asking "Please move this poll to prog Related"? My latest Led Zep poll was moved there from general Music discussions today and I didn't even ask!

first, the website should set up an autoban system - each person has a weekly 3 poll quota, and exceeding it results in suspension for the rest of that week + the entire next one

Sounds good to me. But maybe 5 or 6 weekly. But these are mere details

But then will it be called the Proto-Prog and Prog-Related Lounge? |
Yes..as the General Music Discussions is called General Music Discussions despite being able to make polls there.
