"1. For this first poll, which wasn't announced in advance, we preferred to err on the side of making it too long so that people would definitely notice we'd started doing polls. In future, I wouldn't mind them being shorter, although a few days here and there won't actually make much difference to the time when you get the updates."
I was wondering if in the future, will Jagex will be announcing future polls in advance? Perhaps in a thread of its own maybe with specific details pertaining to the content being voted on. As you stated, and I agree, I feel a lot of voters misinterpreted what they were actually voting on.
Having a thread posted perhaps maybe a week, or a few days ahead of time containing the dates we can expect the poll to start, and what to expect to be voting on will alleviate any confusion, or misinterpretation in the actual polls.
