Is it possible to extend the deadline for a poll?

  • Thread starter Aufbauwerk 2045
  • Start date
In summary, the person running a music poll wants to extend it but is unsure if they can. They ask if only the voting will be closed or the entire thread and mention that there are good comments that deserve a longer life span. They are willing to remove the end date and set a new one if needed. It is clarified that only the voting will be closed if no changes are made. The person running the poll then asks for the end date to be removed to allow for ongoing discussion.

Since my music poll is attracting votes and comments, I would like to extend it a bit. But I don't see any way to do this.

Is it just the voting that will be closed, or the entire thread? I think people are making very good comments in the thread and I think it deserves a longer life span.

Thank you.

I can remove the end date if you want. I can probably set a new one as well.

Just the voting, and only if we don't change it.

If it's OK then please remove the end date. We can have endless democracy on this issue.
