Poll question: Should newbies be allowed to make polls?
This is my first poll, so I thought I'd ask the question...

1. Great poll!
LOL. The "Don't answer" part is hilarious. :)

2. Thanks slay
I thought it would fade into history with only 2 replies. I can't do any meaningful statistical analysis without more data.

5. Newbies are brave
They risk rejection and redicule on a daily basis and keep coming back for more.

12. Hey!
I'm a relative newbie, (though I've been lurking for a long time).
and I started a poll that appeared to catch fire...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=2743614&mesg_id=2743614

Not all of us newbies are out to getcha. We're just trying to feel our way around. You know, get to know people; get involved.

As a newbie I often feel intimated to participate in some of the more serious disscussions...got to watch what I say lest I be flamed...

Heavy Al Gore sigh.

17. My personal opinion about newbies is that none of them should
be allowed to post, or trusted at all, until they have at least 500 posts.

Definitely.

18. "When polls are outlawed, only outlaws will have polls."
No, wait...I mean, "They can have my poll when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers."

Or, wait...wait, I got it, haruuuumph...

As the immortal sage--of Tarragon, I believe--said, "Polls don't kill people; people kill people."
