Hi all, I noticed ( and for sure I'm not the first one ) polls payments are decreased again; one month ago 10 points, until yesterday 5 and today 2 . Don't want to talk about how much is tiresome to see 2 points in my list of payments ( it really hurts ), but I suggest next time to organize a big offer: edit 2 and pay 1, a big sale

Firstly this isn't about mob games so this is in the wrong thread. Secondly it's been like that for a few days now and you definitely weren't the first one to notice. Admin posted this on the 12th in response to complaints about too many stupid polls:
Posted by Administrator: For now, I will try to decrease points for voting in polls from 5 points to 2 points. We want the points paid for poll voting to be so little that people doesn't care about them, while still awarding our users one way or the other. It seems 5 points was too much and caused a lot of really, really weird polls being created.
We'll stay at 2 points for voting until further notice - maybe we can increase it a bit after things start to cool down or we find something else.

Have to say its probably the right thing to do ......... Bankrollmob cant be wasting money on these polls ... we get money that builds up to a nice little sum for posting and its a bit stupid to be abusing this ...... on top of access to bankrolls .... so i for one wont be complaining about this
I'm not upset about the poll points being reduced since there was a growing number of retarded polls being generated (ie: "Are rhinos just Giant Unicorns".....WTF). What I'd like to see is that anyone who posts such crap paying 5 mob points to everyone who replies to their poll out of their own account. Problem solved. If douchebag A posts a dumb poll like afore mentioned and 200 people vote, then douche must pay 1000 mob points out of his account ( negative values allowed like a loan). If negative value reaches -10,000 mob points.....BANNED.

Funny - and great idea But not going to happen
photolong is right I think. Voting in polls doesn't really THAT much to the whole community/forum thingy anyway, so 2 Mob Points for a vote is seems fair to me. Lets just hope it can stay that way - or at least, doesn't decrease further.

I've observed that lately polls number has decrease dramatically. People are not so interested in making polls, maybe because 2 points don't worth it.
I feel that we've lost interesting polls where Poker strategy was involved like ... "What would you do?" in some situation. Pity. One does harm, and another bears the blame.

It's true that polls start to be really stupid and annoying but when i look at polls now... Polls are dead ... like some animals they are dissapearing To be honest i liked some of this stupid polls was laughing from some etc. But anyway good the points was changed i would like to know how many people actually voted when the polls was like 10~

I think it was during Nov or Dec last year when everyone was making polls about the most random things which doesnt really help this forum. Agree that 2 points is fair.

if you compare posting and voting 10 to 2 points, thens its ok. when you post, you have to type and think, what you gonna say. voting is just showing your opinion in 10 seconds. 5 points was way to much
