Hi there, everyone! It was recently brought to my attention that we're getting a lot of polls, usually asking what they should write a theory about. I don't think these polls do much to benefit the community, as people will likely work better when choosing their own topics polls aren't meant to be that repetitive, and therefore the team and I have a couple ideas.
1. Minimum level to post a poll is raised. I don't usually like restrictions such as this one, but it might be our best bet.
2. Disable "What theory should I make" polls. This would be tough to enforce, as it's likely that many new wouldn't know this rule, and we'd have to explain over and over. However, it is my favorite solution thus far.
Those are the fixes we have, but I want to hear what you think! Should we leave it as is, or impose a system not detailed in this post. This choice will effect the whole community, so I want to know what you think. Thanks

What about polls that ask what game they should cover?
They're included in our current general ban, you could ask for mod permission in a special circumstance.
I don't really think polls are annoying, heck in the DDLC community people keeps asking who's best girl XD
Guess that's true, thanks!
In my opinion keep 1 but not 2.my reasoning is if polls are locker till 7 experience led member will probably not even use polls offer .however when they do the poll type shouldn’t be restiricted
Thanks for the input!
What if you’re new though and you don’t know what to write a theory about because a lot of new theorists have blank minds and I’m one so I kind of need help
Good to know!
I think 2 is better and you could just out it in the welcome message I those and put it in the guidelines for this amino
Thanks, that kind of is valuable!
