Would you like a place for off-topic polls?

Sometimes I'm curious about the results of a poll, and I don't always vote in them.

Same here...

This poll is definitely on-topic. It is a poll about meta issues at EN world.

Right.

You are a cold, cold person. I like you!

Thank you!

I voted yes.

I think, since there is absolutely no effort here to stop off topic posting, there should be an off topic forum.

I'm one of those weird souls who actually comes to meta to read about meta topics (community/site issues, boards rules or technical information, etc.

After wading through TONS of off topic nonsense I can find the important posts.

I must say though, it is immensely ironic to see the people most responsible for off topic threads being the ones most vocally opposing an off topic forum.

There is a large effort to keep OT posting limits. There are only 3 Hivemind threads and they are clearly marked. Anything else that is OT should be marked as such. Everything else should be on topic.

The reason we don't want an off topic forum is because we know it'd be pointless. No one would go, or at least as close as makes no difference. It'd be like the NonRPG Sci Fi and Fantasy forum.

Anyway, we keep ourselves to three hivemind threads (plus a few others that other people started) and the mods seem fine with it...*shrug* We're not doing any harm down here. It's not as if we were trying to take over General Discussion or anything.

Plus, it would be quite unpleasant to moderate (although I'd still do my best, of course, should we ever get one).
Further, as far as I know, Morrus wants to run an RPG (i.e., d20 system) site - and not anything else.
