As the title states, Other Voting Polls is simply for any sort of poll, the subject of which does not belong in other boards. Irrespective of whether the vB poll feature is actually used, you're asking question and allowing a compilation of answers from members. Anything that does not constitute a poll — 'My girlfriend dumped me today', 'I got a new dog' — doesn't belong here.
  1. Subject-specific polls: Polls involving Pokémon go in the Pokémon General board; those about video games go in Other Games; those about books, sport, television, and radio belong in Other Entertainment; computer-related polls belong in Computer/Technology Discussion; animé and manga polls go in Japanese Entertainment.
  2. Quizzes: Any 'quiz' created on sites like Quizilla or OkCupid, otherwise a quiz in which results are automatically generated depending on any choices made, go in Fun Time in Pokéland.
  3. Appropriate polls: Firstly, there are to be no polls made over favouritism — that is, no 'Who do you hate on PC', no polls that focus on a single race, gender, sexual affinity, group or anything else as determined by the administration as a singular favourite. In other words, you are allowed to inquire about these things as long as you do not carry an attitude in favour of one singular item in these subjects. Secondly, make sure that the poll is really something that's constructive; if you asked 'How many times do you fart in a day?', do you really expect everyone else to want to know that?
  4. Internet surveys: Any survey hosted remotely that is not a quiz as defined above will be closed.
  5. Be sure to use proper spelling and grammar when constructing or, for that matter, replying to a poll. In fact you should be doing this every time you post. Any poll on here judged to be too ambiguous or poorly written as far as grammar and spelling go will be edited or closed altogether.
