Default Polls

The seperate polls only forum Survey Says will not be reinstated here in its original form. After much discussion between the Administrators and Moderators of this board, we have decided to make several changes to the way polls are organized here, changes that we hope will be more efficient for our members and for our Team Members.

Firstly, we will be bringing back polls to their individual, related forums. For example, polls about Mathilde's best gala dresses will now be in the Belgian Forum, as opposed to one specific sub forum with a mass amount of polls all with different and unrelated subject matter. Any polls that encompass several royal households, such as Which Crown Princess's gala dress is your favourite, will be encompassed by the Royal Chit Chat forum.

Secondly, polls may now only be posted by Administrators and Moderators. While there are many reasons behind this decision, the main reason is that this forum as a whole was saturated with similar polls, such as 3 polls open at the same time about the prettiest Crown Princess -- all with the exact same poll choices. For the hard working moderators of this forum, that meant countless hours spent closing poll after poll. With only Administrators and Moderators being able to start polls, we can now keep track of the number of polls open at a given time and ensure that multiple polls with similar subject matter are not open simultaneously.

If you have a poll idea, please contact the moderator of the forum you wish to create the poll in via PM. (Moderators of each forum can be found at the bottom of the index page and at the bottom of the front page of each forum.) Include your poll question, your poll choices (10 maximum), and pictures or links to pictures you wish to include and a moderator will set it up to his or her discretion.

If you would like credit for the poll, please inform the moderator so, and you will be credited with the idea and any work you may have done to come up with images or related to the poll.

If you have further questions or concerns about his, please contact an Administrator or Moderator via PM about this matter.

Just a reminder to everyone about our Poll Policy. Please re-read the above post.

Please do not just start polls as a regular thread with a title that reads Poll: with a question following it. This only leads to confusion and can create chaos with overlapping polls or too many polls in a forum.

If you want to start a poll, contact the appropriate moderator (see above list) and he or she will create the poll as they see fit.

Thank you.
