Edit Poll

[_The13thDoctor_]

So you know that when you click to edit poll if there was anything you forgot to do you could fix it?
No.
Because I just realized that you can check the box for. "Display votes publicly" And I like to do that so by accidentally starting the poll kind screws it up for me. Any idea if they could implement this?

We should be able to edit this option. I agree.

This indeed so annoying

It's like profile posts. You can't edit your profile posts, and it it very annoying.
You can not edit your statements in the polls, and I think that should be changed! Good idea!

There are reasons why editing a poll is a bad idea, main one being that you could influence the result of a poll by editing it after there have already been a bunch of votes. Polls in general have very little practical use due to the low number of votes they tend to get.

I'm asking to DISPLAY VOTES.
How is this going to change peoples votes if they see what people are thinking?
Does it help in the case of people voting without saying why?
And if its such a problem then why not remove the feature?

The moderators should get an edit log where they can see all the edits. That would make think easier.

I'd rather limit poll editing to just adding more choices to it. Nothing else.
Anonymous voting is great and all, and some people genuinely do prefer to vote anonymously, so being able to see the votes publicly afterwards seems wrong.
I'd just pay attention next time.

It's pretty sad if you don't vote just because the votes are public.

Some people just like to hide

Does anyone even know what they're talking about?
You can already do it. I'm suggesting for the last time that you can edit it with anything else.
Makes no sense why that's the only thing. And people make mistakes and "paying attention" isn't always going to happen

 

[Sweetenerera]

Alright, I have an idea.
What about having standard options? So you can't forget to turn things on.

That's why there one vote no <3

This is also a test besides this being a suggestion.

I think you might be able to change it if nobody had voted yet
Also I agree since it is completely irrelevant to results
However don’t threads have that box auto-checked
