##Duplicate Posts 2: Electric Bugaloo (Now with a poll!)## [View all]
This discussion thread is pinned.
Once again the discussion of duplicates has come up. However, since the Admins have finally crawled out of the hot tub and gotten us a polling feature, I'd like to see if we can some to an agreement as a Group what we want to do with them.
I've checked out the previous discussion on this from March and I've condensed the ideas expressed in the poll.
The poll will run for a week, then we'll discuss the results and see if we need a run-off vote or something.
Note: option #2 doesn't necessarily have to be done by a Host, but could be done by anybody who notices.
For those of you looking for a different sort of poll...
