OOPS! Accidently resetted poll for filtransferstatus by ChronoGSM on 05-28-2004 at 07:35 PM

Sorry guys, i posted the poll and topic fot the filtransfer statuses, and a lot of you voted for it. (thanx for that)
But today i noticed a typing error in the poll, so i eddited it and corrected it.... BUT... by doing that, the counter was reset to 0 :S
(i didn't know)

So please, all of you, re-vote for it, so the counter reflects the true and fair voting

Thanx y'all  (Y)

Sorry about that, but the votes must be reset when you edit a poll to prevent abuse.

it makes sense, cos if u had a crap idea, and u made a poll saying is this a good idea (yes/no), then it could be changed so everyone who voted no, has it changed to yes

Well, I expect mods to be more responsible with poll editing, so they don't have to reset the votes.

Do you mean that they should take more care when they first make the poll?

When who first makes the poll? Anyone can make a poll, not just mods... :p

Users should be careful when making a poll, but editing it is no big deal if you notice your mistakes right after posting, because chances are that nobody voted yet.
