Noted. So we should give a 24 hour limit with a delimiter to "only if alcohol [sans et al] doesn't limit your mental capacity". Got it. Point well taken.

Ok OK ms. kelly web mistress.
Even if you say it 50 times, I probably still won't get it.
Are you implying that if I get kicked off the forum I'll quit drinking?

Bevahiour seems to be the crux of the matter. I've never seen a recreational (key word there) forum that time-limited the edit function, but then the issues we saw in the past were fairly unique too. I do agree that the questions should be worded as functionally as possible- the way they stand now as I write this seems a little bit 'editorialised.' possibly reflecting someone's opinions. Polls with tangible outcomes should strive for objectivity, period.

I also remain open to the idea that this issue might require some trial & error to get comfy.

Polls always equate to OPINION which do NOT necessarily equate to OBJECTIVITY. It's what people want... and it's driven by experience and emotion nine times out of ten... thus, objectivity is subject to the user; not by the poll.

Even so, write the questions as objectively as possible. Editorialising in them gets construed as trying to lead or influence the user, and certainly makes the questioner appear less respectful of the user's opinions, to say nothing of coming across as crass and snide. Take the high road, *I dare you!*

[ I was joking around. Sorry it didn't come through as such.
PS - My name has second "E" in it. :~)

Hi Keelly
Sorry I forgot the second E in your name.
I knew you were just joking around
I sometimes joke around a bit too.

I agree with your thoughts on this, Veg.

Thanks for the giggles in the last few posts.

Dear Kelley (Most Excellent and Omnipotent Webmistress), would it be possible to include a 'Reason for editing:' line when a post is edited? Some will ignore it, but I think most will use it. We are all honourable folks here. Mostly.

ps: Love yer werk, mate. I'm getting used to all the red dots under all the non-US english words I am compelled to use.
