Serious question here.
If you post a poll and put in Other and then put all of the above below it. If a person chooses all of the above, do they have to post an other post as well?


I mean they are saying all the posts are relevant plus there is another option as well.


Well do they?

13. But... but....
It does not mention this in the rules.


Discussion Forum Rules
These are the basic rules. For a detailed explanation of how we enforce these rules, please click here.

Last updated November 7, 2005.

1. This is a moderated discussion forum with rules. We have a team of volunteer moderators who delete posts and ban disruptors. Members are strongly urged to familiarize themselves with our rules, and make an effort to become a positive member of our community. Those who do not risk having their posts deleted or their posting privileges revoked.
2. Who We Are: Democratic Underground is an online community for Democrats and other progressives. Members are expected to be generally supportive of progressive ideals, and to support Democratic candidates for political office. Democratic Underground is not affiliated with the Democratic Party, and comments posted here are not representative of the Democratic Party or its candidates.
3. Civility: Treat other members with respect. Do not post personal attacks against other members of this discussion forum.
4. Content: Do not post messages that are inflammatory, extreme, divisive, incoherent, or otherwise inappropriate. Do not engage in anti-social, disruptive, or trolling behavior. Do not post broad-brush, bigoted statements. The moderators and administrators work very hard to enforce some minimal standards regarding what content is appropriate. But please remember that this is a large and diverse community that includes a broad range of opinion. People who are easily offended, or who are not accustomed to having their opinions (including deeply personal convictions) challenged may not feel entirely comfortable here. A thick skin is necessary to participate on this or any other discussion forum.
5. Copyrights: Do not copy-and-paste entire articles onto this discussion forum. When referencing copyrighted work, post a short excerpt (not exceeding 4 paragraphs) with a link back to the original.
6. Forum Administration: Respect the moderators and administrators, and respect their decisions. You can help make their job easier by clicking the "Alert" link on any post that might need moderator attention. Please understand that moderating errors and inconsistencies are inevitable on a large website like this. If you have a question about DU policies, or if you have a concern about an action a moderator has taken, please contact an admin privately.
7. More Information: For a detailed explanation of how we enforce these rules, please click here.

19. those are the rules for posting in discussion forums
once you become a member, you are able to post polls as well as topics for discussion. If you are not a paying memeber, you can pick "other / explain" without posting an explaination. If you are a paying member, you can also do this, but you won't be able to post your own poll until that poll is gone.

Hope this helps...

10. I think
your post may very well be the most thought-provoking post I have ever come across in the Lounge!

So, Congratulations. :-)

(I don't know the answer, though. I'm too confused...)

22. Well, of course...
It's very important to recognize the insightful contributions of fellow Texans to help dispel the notion that we all mentally resemble our state's most famous icon, Shrub!
