We have had some troubles keeping threads with polls about Steam and Downloadable Content (DLC) open due to extremely uncivil behavior by some posters.
So I think its time to open a poll each on these topics, accompanied by some words on conduct.
Everyone here is welcome to discuss the topic at hand in a civil manner and within forum rules. Any flaming, trolling or other attempts at disrupting the discussion is not welcome and this thread will be closely monitored.
So without further ado: lets discuss the topic. What do you think about the integration of Steamworks and Steam as the DRM scheme? Will it make you more or less likely to buy the game? Why does it matter?
The poll will read as follows, I have tried to capture all likely sentiments, If you feel some option is missing, please let me know, I can still add options, if they are not already covered.
Edit: added 3 more options, since there where no votes till then I don't think it affects the outcome.
Make sure to read the poll, unfortunately my ommitting the options in the first go makes the ordering awkward: definite statements (will NOT buy/will buy) are at the bottom.
