ORIGINAL: Level You're probably over-thinking the whole "kneel" thang Honestly, I don't worry about it much (either people using such a term, or anyone feeling trivialised by the lack of said term), it's like the other kink/language examples, it won't kill me to see them, and I don't necessarily dislike some of the folks that use them, I just don't care for it. It's not like everytime I want to use the phrase I start agonising about word choice, it's just a handy neutral colloquialism for a concept I tend to use a lot quote:
I DO think a poll can contribute to a serious discussion. I made one in the Politics section, and it had a purpose, and thankfully, the Mods let it stay, as it pertained to that section. So if the mods can see a purpose behind a poll they let it stay where it is? Doesn't your example therefore prove that sm22's assertion is wrong? I don't go into P&R, so I don't know the thread you're talking about, but I can't think of a thread I've seen myself where it was so hard to get a feel for any consensus from the posts themselves that a poll really contributed.
