Hi--
My latest hub..part of the Hub Mob topic makes use of several poll capsules.
My cousin, who is not a member of HP, was disappointed at not being able to vote in the polls. He was able to leave a comment.
It does not seem right to "force" folks to sign up for a HP account just so they can vote in the polls. Since they are able to leave comments without signing up, the same should be true for polls.
This skews the results, and makes for a less-accurate polling, if only fellow Hubbers can vote--you don't get a true cross section of all your readers.
I wonder if this might be addressed/fixed/corrected/changed (or whatever other term you care to apply)?? ... ;-)
Doesn't having users sign up prevent poll fraud? With comments it doesn't matter how many you make, but for polls, people only get one vote. That's usually how polls work on the websites I visit.
This sounds like something that would fit in the "Suggest a New Feature" forum category. Maybe you could contact HP and ask them to move it there?
oops...my bad...I thought that's what I had clicked!
Moral of story: look twice; click once!
How do I ask them to move this?
I contacted them to move it- should be taken care of! Great suggestion

I received a new iPhone just yesterday and logged into HP. I tried to vote, but that would not work. I was able to comment on the Hub OK, but could not vote. Am I doing something wrong? BTW: The Hub looked very good.I've been previewing my Hubs on "mobile" to...

when i read a hub and i reach the comments box,i usualy read no further, wouldnt it be better if the google ads rather than being at the bottom of the page under the comments,were placed before the comment box where more people would be sure to see them, it would increase the odds a little of the...
