    Can we trust you when you answer a poll?

    Came out of the "What speed are you riding at" poll.

    Do you answer a poll on here honestly or do you just tick whatever your current status of medication (recreational or prescribed) makes your brain fancy?

    If the poll is a intelligent one and the poll questions thought thru I will tick the box that I think most refers to what I do/feel re the subject.

    But what about you?

    And if you always bullshit when ticking the box, how do we know that you did not do the same on the poll accompaning this thread?

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    About right for me, I will answer intelligently (I fink?) if I'm interested in the subject but with any pointless poll I will either ignore it or place an idiotic vote, what else can people generating stupid polls expect?

    I ticked the "Upstanding Citizen, Does Not Lie" choice.
    That will give you some indication of KB poll worth.

    This should have been one of the options in this poll.

    Maybe we should run another poll to see if we think the questions in this poll qualified as intelligent..?

    The poll about speed was a little bit silly. No one EVER rides at exactly the same speed everywhere.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    And you have a point? All polls are silly. But to defend the speed one (as it was mine and I will defend anything mine!) clearly 200+ KB's are happy to indicate what they normally travel at. If we are to take in to consideration all variables like time of day, weather, traffic, tyre conditions, state of mind, what one had for brekkie and how horny you are, then we be polling our self...

    As I only use the results in my statistic reports I file with the IRD I do not need names. They know who you are anyhow.

    My point is that yesterday I was cruising around at 90 km/hr for bit because it felt right.

    "Depends" is the only answer to that other poll (the one striving for Scottish Play notoriety). I'm not talking adult nappies either.

    The other point is, someone is being a bit defensive aren't they? What's the point of answering Internet polls if you can't use them to skew statistics for fun?
