a newbie just necroposted a "what is your favorite series of the past 5 years" poll... it was five years old... but still on the top page. I found it funny.

Another option I thought of was "because people only vote and don't comment",,, but then, I didn't either, so...

I voted for the lack of options choice. I posted a few early on, and usually you'll get criticisms that are sometimes valid like "you should have listed so n so" and I'd actually like to change or repost the poll, but no option exists. You cant even fix a typo.

I have voted in some of the polls and I've commented in some so your options above don't apply to me. Lately I have not done either as this poll is the first one in several months if not a year or more. Participation in all the forums except "Talkback" has declined a great deal in the last year or so.

Well, I think it's all because polls are boring.
