Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

Early this morning I noticed a few very ancient poll threads had self resurrected overnight, when no post had been added and votes long since closed.

Has Roy been tinkering again?

Don't think so have been discussing on Crisp Poll thread.:)

There were a few others which had no 'resurrection posts' at 6am

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

yeh but are polls still open? coulda just voted.

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

I thought all poll threads had a date for closing automatically:confused:
The threads I saw were from 2007/8 - hardly likely to be still open.

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

no crisp one was still open taggy voted on it,which yeh would know if yeh read the thread.

Ya I've just checked that thread too cashy only the tourettes thread is closed yet its back live again

I dislike poll threads anyway. They show as having new posts when they haven't - a nuisance.

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

makes no odds to me,if i dislike summat i ignore it simple.

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

they only show new posts when someone votes, even if no one has commented

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

I closed one that had been left open and will close others when I see them

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

Is that a good idea neil? things from way back come back up, which new members aint seen,n may wish to add to, which i can't see a lot wrong with,:)

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

Was going to make the same point Cashy.

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

The rules say this:

Which is why I close them when I see them.

Re: Poll threads that resurrect themselves
 

Yeh but that rule did not apply when those polls were started i think.;)
