Most polls in our community are for entertainment, or a way of manipulating public opinion. Poll making, when you want accurate answers is very tricky business. You have to try and leave no uncertainties in the choices; they have to be dead simple and leave little to the imagination. If you want no bias you need to make every option as neutral as possible. Emotional or catchy phrases must be avoided and the order of the question is always critical. There is a lot of research and method behind good poll taking.
Also note to that people in general oppose change regardless its intrinsic value if there is not previous debate. Also no one is immune to poll bias; I just voted for options that I did not agree with! Duh!

Just spoilarize everything, and open more space up for more front page one click content! Those left tabs are useful, but mainly for new users or less active users - but if you spoilarize them you can shrink them to merely one inch of vertical space, leaving more free front space. One thing I do know, if you remove the direct, one click, access to top 5 main threads from front page - forums will hurt. It always results in less participation. That is why spoilarizing them is such a sweet solution, because you get best of both worlds, more space for more variety in content, and you still have that one click welcome into the forums!

Yeah, what he said. It's nice to be able to see at a glance which threads have been bumped without having to open up the forum index, but I use pretty much everything. Well, everything except that one link up top that says "Logout".

Look below the Replay heading on the left, above the LiquidPoker link.

My suggestion would be to add a little feature:

You know how on LP.net you can collapse a section of the forums. Well make a button like that that would extend one of the forums in the left bar.

So say instead of showing 5 topics, it unfolds to show 15 topics from that section. Then when you are done with that forum, you just collapse it again to show only 5 topics.

I don't click just the topics that are in top 5, I just use the sidebar to go to specific forums, I'll click the general bar and scroll through general, etc.

I really dislike liquidpoker.net compared to tl.net.

Colour, those extremely ugly and gay star systems and all.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Usually, I just click the tabs. When I'm really bored or want to read more, I click on the index.

I rarely click the 'Forum' Index at the top but I do click on the Indexes on the left (i.e. General, Broodwar, Tourneys etc). I don't miss many threads in those 5+2 Forums but I don't see any other Forums (normally just Lounge - wtf? just saw that - and Feedback).

index only (also my tl.net bookmar is set on the forum index), because it's much more practical. first of all you get a way better overview this way and you also see all the forums. I don't use the navigation on the left ever, except for news and replays.

I almost completely agree with you.
I sometimes (rarely though) use the left navigation bar, not to click on actual threads, but to click on one of the forums and have the complete list of the threads therein.

Why would anyone only use the left side bar?! I can't even imagine living with only 5 topics of each section displayed.

-_______- No one does. You click on the board heading listed on the left to view the entirety of that board instead of using the Forum index to see the top ten discussions of every board on one page.
