SLC_96 That makes sense, thanks. Other discussion board software (phpBB) places polls in the first post and the OP can make changes.
It will be more work for the mods if a member made a mistake and needs to update the poll. Can permissions be set so that the member can edit a poll?
It's a balance between the member's action and moderator workload. Stuff happens, but you don't want to burden the moderators for every minor nit.
