Hi,

There is a kind of weird situation with the polls... that may not be completely correct.. but I don't know if it's possible to do anything about it...

I think this is the situation:

When someone votes on a poll, the time and date and time of the vote will be listed... but the name from the person who posted the last reply will be under it...

So when we got back from Ireland... I found a poll thread that said someting like:
-------------
Last Post

Yesterday 10:00 AM
by Martijn
-------------

And I thought.... that's weird... we were playing a game in Kilcock at that time....

So...
I think it would be best to have the name and date from the last post listed, and leave out the moments when someone votes...
But this may not be a provided possibility....

Grtz,

Martijn

I agree, it is funny to see your name next to the new posts even thought you know you haven't posted anything.

I also agree that it's annoying and a bit silly but unfortunately this is the way the software works. Hopefully in a future version this can be changed but for now there's nothing I can do about it :(
Oh yeh, if the votes are left out for updating the thread then an active poll could quickly disappear and look inactive as newer threads move to the top of the forum...
