The purpose of using the democracy example was not to suggest that DR1 is a democracy, because its more than obvious that its not and as a private enterprise, it can be whatever the heck it wants to be.
However, my message was that in the same way that democracies are not abandoned or eliminated for the sole reason that most people in them don't exercise their right to vote; neither will the polls forum.
Much to the detriment of non-elitist people, the fact remains that most decisions concerning everyone are often decided by a minority. In the same manner, only a minority of DR1ers will participate in any given poll and quite frankly, the participation of those who choose to do so is what is valued the most.
If everyone else wants their opinion to count, then they better vote or express their minds or simply accept whatever comes their way.
After its all said and done, only two (you and SantiagoDR) have been actively criticizing this poll. Again, a minority; a very tiny minority.
