Could we add a feature to the polls?
I'd like there to be an option on polls to see who voted which way. It's too anonymous right now. Even if the initial user generating the poll could decide if he wanted it to be an anon poll or one that reveals the breakdown of the votes it would be better than the current way.
I like that you don't have to actually post in the thread to do the poll, but I wish that you could click where the poll tells the number of people who have voted to see a breakdown of votes.
I'm sure there is a hack out there to do this on vbulletin.

However, with regards to the first thing, many things are said to be too cpu intensive when in reality they are not. Take for instance the PM feature which numerous vbulletin developers testify are not, contrary to the misbelief, cpu or bandwidth intensive. I am curious as to if it actually is anymore cpu intensive or if it's just a misconception.

As for your point of people just not voting, well that will certainly aid in the already non-scientific results we get. Your method would definitely skew results to the non-embarrassing answers. We might be thinking of different polls. I'm not thinking of "How much did you love ... movie".

Ahh, that's quite a bit different from what you said the first time. If you've seen it first hand then sounds good. Keep it in mind if they ever get it set up so it's not too intensive.

It too was too CPU intensive ... and then bam, almost the next week, there it was. Right along with the change from UBB to vB.
