Oh, about that. Group: Members Posts: 818 Member No.: 23,377 Joined: 23-January 07	Text Below for Non-Visual Learners, like Me :J Scroll down for a summery for thouse who cant read.. ------------------------------- (Posted Image) ------------------------------- First, new poll. ------------------------------- (Posted Image) ------------------------------- Title, Ect. ------------------------------- (Posted Image) ------------------------------- Select "Single Poll" ------------------------------- (Posted Image) ------------------------------- Reinforcing for the slow learners. ------------------------------- (Posted Image) ------------------------------- Use the "Enter" key to add new questions. ------------------------------- Update: To start a new poll in an already made topic that previously did not have a poll, click the "Attach new poll" butten at the top right. Ok, I have seen a lot of messed up polls lately.. I just wanted to make an FAQ, i'll add pics after school tommorow. OK, so.. To make a poll, you click the "New Poll" option, as oppsed to the "new topic" option. Next, select a question for your poll, along with a Topic Title and Description.. Next, you need to decided how many choices the person has in the poll.. The drop down bar is NOT deciding the amount of questions.. If you want them to be able to select one answer, you select the "Single Choice" poll.. If you post "Multi-Choice" it isnt the amount of questions, it is in fact how many they person can choose from.. Summery Use "Single Choice" for a normal poll, "Multi-Choice" for a poll were more than one answer can be selected. To change the number of questions, hit "Enter" in the poll choices box. Summery of the Summery (By Tradition) Single Choice = 1 Answer per Person Multi = 2 answers per Person. Enter = New Question. This post has been edited by lBurnsl on Feb 22 2007, 10:04 PM

:P

Though I like the idea of putting this in, I have never understood why it is annoying in any way if someone chooses multi-choice instead of single-choice even if they don't need it. It is annoying and useless to "VFABIC"

But if nobody "VFABIC," then the poll is accurate. It isn't a hard concept.
