I don't pay attention ... I'm a bad voter. But we all voted Dupree back in and he's still messing up the security in HB. Maybe I'll follow politics more closely when I think it matters which candidate wins. I don't mind the polls, but I wish there weren't so many on the same day. Maybe one a day or every other day...

If hubba would just put one poll up per contest it wouldn't be too bad. But he's already put up all those polls up at least once already. I don't know why he feels like he constantly has to put up a new political poll every month or so when it's already become apparent that political polls here mean absolutely nothing. Just look at the results of the Ward Four poll and you'll see what I mean.

One of your Steaks might be good enough.

Hawkeye, I love the fried mushrooms, salad and onion rings along with the rest.

It would be fun to see a mid-term poll since it's all in the news.

That's the way I really wanted to word it, but I thought I'd better be polite this once.

What a trooper! :smt038

Hawkeye, what is the name of your restaurant?

HA! You and me both, Big John. I have one name, one password for everything in my life. Heck, I've been know to forget one or the other from time to time. Can't imagine having two. If I wrote it down, I'd have to nail it to the puter screen or I'd lose it. Tried that once. Had to buy a new screen.

Why does one do that? I can't imagine needing all that. Well, I know one reason. Kids (Mets Fans) change their name and come over to the Braves board as trolls and trash us. Then you can never find them again on the Mets boards. But that's kids' pranks. Don't understand an adult doing it unless they have something to hide or protect. Then, I'm not sure I'd trust them.

It's a forum where discussions take place. What you do is just reply to the topics that you care about and it bumps it above all of the others. As we get more and more people, I'm sure there will be several topics that appear that some people on the forum don't care about. If there is enough interest though, we can separate these topics into a sub-forum called "Elections", just let me know.

I just logged on,and hit the new posts,there seems to be even more polls,is this a joke?

I can create the extra forum, but it will still show up in the New Posts since all that does is search for all posts that are new. I'll see what I can do though.

Ok, an Elections forum (http://www.myhattiesburg.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=65) has been made and I moved the most recent election polls to this forum. I also found and changed the option that bumps polls whenever they are voted on. The threads are still going to show up in the New Posts, but only when someone has posted on them.
