Are you less likely to vote in public polls?

[Quintillus]

As the question states. Do you sometimes finding yourself looking over a poll's options, thinking, "That one's my answer!", then notice that it's a public poll and decide not to vote?

 

[bhsup]

Heh, no. Why in the world should anyone be ashamed of their opinions on anything?

 

[The_J]

Depends on the subject.

 

[Zelig]

I'm more likely to vote in public polls.

 

[Valka D'Ur]

Does anyone really care who voted what, if they're not actively engaged in a full-out argument? I've hardly ever bothered to see how people vote, unless I get a sudden case of curiosity.

 

[Souron]

Only if it's asking personal information.

 

[EvenStranger]

Nah, not usually. If it's so controversial that I'm afraid of having my opinion about it known I'll just stay well clear of the entire thread.

 

[ZeletDude]

Nope. It doesn't even phase me

 

[azzaman333]

Why would I care?

 

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

I honestly can say I look at 1% of poll results and vote in even less. No particular reason either except inherent laziness.

 

[Perfection]

When it's a public poll, people will see me trollin', which is preferred.

 

[Smellincoffee]

That probably depends on the issue, but most of the time I'd be perfectly fine voting in a public poll.

 

[GoodSarmatian]

OP should really make another thread just like this, but with a pulic poll, and then compare the results.

 

[classical_hero]

I don't vote in private polls.

 

[Tee Kay]

Considering the amount of personal information that is loose on the internet... I think public polls in an obscure off-topic forum is the least of my troubles.

 

[shadowplay]

Pole badly needs downtown option.

 

[Goodfella]

Posting at all is kind of like voting in a public poll.

 

[Zarn]

When it's a public poll, people will see me trollin', which is preferred.

They see Perf trollin'
They hatin'
Mad lurkin'
And tryin to catch him votin' dirty
Tryin to catch him votin' dirty, Tryin to catch him votin' dirty
Tryin to catch him votin' dirty, Tryin to catch him votin' dirty

And yet you want them, too

 

[Dachs]

I am also more likely to vote in public Poles.

[redacted]

And yet you want them, too

Wow, I am truly sorry for you.

 

[_random_]

I'm definitely more inclined to vote for a joke option in public polls if I'm not well-informed on the subject and think I may be asked to defend my position.
