+TEAM 360 Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Well, if you are trying to start a POLL, then just click on the "New" button up there in the left, if you want a "pole", I would suggest searching for a walking stick at various sporting good sites... Quote Link to comment

If you read my post, I said I cannot find a button to post the poll. I have found the page but there is no button listed to post the poll. At least not one that I can find. Quote Link to comment
+Choachy Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Im not gonna try to understand the confusion...but to post a poll, in the upper left of the forum area you see a button that says NEW with a little folder icon next to it. Click that, and it drops down a menu, where the options Topic, Poll, Private Topic, and Private Poll appear. You would select POLL. You would then get a new window. Now if youre using a web browser, or a program that blocks pop up windows you may have a problem, but I doubt yuou are since you posted this message. The window that appears will have Subject(a subject for your poll), Message(where you enter everything you want people to know about your poll), and Answers to your poll(where you can put the poll choices). Then you click Post Now. My time, your time is limited, but time itself is unlimited. [This message was edited by Choachy on April 04, 2003 at 07:57 AM.] Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I'm a Pole. Anyway, I just tried to start poll and everything was there, including the post now button. Mabe it has something to do with your browser? "You can only protect your liberties in this world, by protecting the other man's freedom.

+Marky Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 On the subject of poles... REI has their shock absorbing adjustable walking staff on sale starting to day for $38 (regularly $54). This is an awesome walking stick if you are in the market for one. When I was having problems walking (long story) this thing was a life saver. The top screws off to reveal a camera mount as well, which can come in handy. --Marky "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer with a backlit GPSr" Quote Link to comment

Well, the shock absorbing feature isn't the reason I'd by this walking stick. The adjustability is more important. The thing I really like about these poles, which I've not seen in other poles is the padded wrist strap. This pole is designed to be used with the wrist strap, where a large percentage of your weight is supported by the wrist strap rather than your hand gripping the pole. This makes it much more relaxing to use for long periods of time. The pole's grip is padded foam, but with no ridges, which I tend to prefer. My current walking stick has more of a ridged hand grip designed to fit your fingers and this bugs me half the time. I misplaced my REI pole so will be going and getting one of these today to replace it. --Marky "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer with a backlit GPSr" Quote Link to comment

I have a pair of Komperdells that have a shock absorber. It's a nice feature,but it can be turned off. www.sierratradingpost.com has great prices on trekking poles.

+rldill Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I found that if I maximized the window, I lost the "post now" button and could not get it again until I closed the window and reopened it.
