OT: Am I missing something here?

I'm not sure what the benefits of voting on polls are. If it is that they invoke orgasms after hitting the enter key, I'm for it. If so my keyboard must be broken, cause it's not happening for me.

If it a feel good result that makes you feel a useful part of a community, by your interaction, maybe that will help you. Welcome!

If you don't have a job, never did and never will. Remember to Vote, for your free government programs. Remember it's not the best leader, it's who can give you the bigger share of the other people's money.

For you we provide a soft couch in the back, feel free to lie down. Jim

As a side issue, here's one reason a lot of people 'vote on polls': You get one addition to your post/replies totals, which is shown just about everywhere including under your avatar. IOW, you can easily inflate your contribution to this forum just by hitting a vote button on every poll that comes down the lane... old or new. It's also sad that people (mostly newbies) don't look at the dates of the polls before they vote or add a reply - that just kicks the polls back up to the top of the first page displacing other important posts. Whoever is resurrecting these old polls week after week is suffering from some anger issues that he/she can't seem to get a grip on. Anger held inside just corrodes the soul of the person storing it. It's not a condition I'd even wish on an enemy.

For those who feel compelled to vote on ancient polls, Dr. Ruth says it's OK to touch yourself;
and it will make you feel happier.

But then again, I feel Dr Ruth, may be running out of options.

Where do you go to cash in post/replies here? What is the exchange rate, I don't need frequent flyer miles, maybe more bandwith, I could always use that, or credit on my electric bill. Jim
