Please help DU this poll...
If you want 'DU' to be used as a synonym for 'spam' or 'freep'. Just something to keep in mind. I don't think that stacking unscientific polls (and going on the record to do so) presents DU in a good light. Just because 'they' do it doesn't make it a worthwhile tactic.

2. Insignificant number of threads
make this "call to arms". Statistically insignificant.

I doubt that it would be recordable on a .1% scale of the total daily posts.

While true the tactic isn't "worthwhile" in any administration-changing way, it is satisfying to play with the numbers.

The opposition will always find something trivial to find fault with us. I'm not too worried about their misperceptions, nor would I alter my posting style to avoid their criticism.
