Can we shut down old polls..."Should there be a convertable Marauder?"..."What is the next color you'd like to see?"..."Who will be the next sponsor of NASCAR?"


Thanks...just getting tired of seeing them pop-up. :up:

I would have started a Poll to see who agreed with the deletion...but, I don't know how to do it.

I agree....and add "Who wants a dyno tune at MV-II" to that list. It's even worse when they are shut down and then just remain there mocking you!!

I posted the NASCAR poll in the middle of last year and now it just pops out of no where.

I have also noticed threads that weren't recently addressed pop up. :confused:

I believe I have figured out why this is happening. As you noticed before, at the bottom of a thread is a window providing you with other "similar" threads that you can browse. The list only shows the last post, so there is no way to know how old the thread is, particularly if you are new here or weren't here back in the Jurassic Period when the thread started. Somebody clicks on this link and is sent to the last post, which maybe fairly recent, then posts a reply, this is then listed under "new posts" on the menu bar at the top of the home page. So, an ancient thread suddenly reappears.

I logged on here recently and there were at least 6 "new post" listings that the thread was started back in 2002.

Just an added comment here ........we have to remember this site is so popular and new Marauder owners are joining everyday who may not be aware any given poll was addressed already. Just my .02 cents

Maybe Logan can find a way to add an expiration date to a poll.

JoeJoe,

I welcome all the new people...I just hate wading through the new posts that are created when someone votes on "Who will be the next NASCAR sponsor." or "What color is going to be next."

Not trying to be mean...just some of these are irrelevant* now.

I think we need to take a poll on it. After all, it is an election year. :D

OK Todd: Now answer the questions: Should their be a convertable? What color should Mercury offer next time around??

These polls thing are like the dog chasing the car--now that you've caught it--what are you going to do with it---so when all data is collected--what does it do for you--what can we do with it? ...... Duh! ........

Theres a word coming to mind----Ok Todd--how does "superfluous" sound?
