More poll options?

Its not really on useage, as its there if people need the extra options.

Just because theres the option of 20 doesn't mean people will necessarily use them, it just means there's the flexibility to do so when needed, an increase even to 15 or just 12 would still help out with quite a few polls; take this one for example: http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=591834

In that i've had to combine 17/18 and 19/20 in order to fit in the options needed, having just two more poll options would have allowed it to be split properly "/

A spam poll is spam regardless of how many options they add so i dont see the downside really "/ Plus polls often involve a discussion anyway, the poll part just lets everyone see what the overall opinions of people coming to the thread is.

Always fun to split things by gender / age additionally :p Primarily just so its their if it were needed, i imagine around 12 would be my most common usage, possibly around 15. But 20 gives the flexibility in case i got a really long one :p

Idk my personal opinion is that 20 is a bit excessive :P I know you want it to be there in the case you need it but I feel like it'd lead to excessive amounts of options :P

I would say i do find 10 a bit restrictive, if you think 20 is to many though, how about 15? Kinda the middle group, but does offer more flexibility, plus isnt as dramatic an increase as to 20 :)

15 sounds like a decent number, might as well take the happy middle option :) 10 can be restrictive, and I doubt people would go crazy making polls with 15 options, if anything it'll be like the unfiltering of some words where it becomes a craze for about a month and dies down :/

Oh I never even thought of doing that till you just put the idea in my head. :(

It will max out the space too much at the top when a poll is given, but oh well, can't hurt anyone...

Just wondering if there any chance of this coming about, 15 or even just 12 poll options would be a great help to the forums poll makers :P
