Rich Kern poll does not belong here!

[gooseberry]

He has his own site. Besides, it's too messy and busy up there in the header. I'm sorry, why are we catering to Rich Kern's equally silly poll?

I like Rich's poll up there. It looks fine, design-wise, and Rich is a help to everyone, why not get him more exposure?

i'm not going to say that the richkern poll doesn't belong here but it is starting to look a little cluttered up there at the top of the page. i think the VT Poll thread should be removed from the top of the page and just leave the VT Poll and the AVCA Poll (the AVCA poll ususally stirs up more sh!t than the RichKern poll) up at the top like a banner.

the 'Fanbase' thread should stay at the top the way it has been forever now.

the 'Logo' and 'What do you want changed?' threads should go on the board's MAIN page only. putting it on the top of every board is a little too much... IMO.

I enjoy looking at the Rich Kern poll on his website and view it almost weekly. If we need to have two polls at the top of this page, I'd prefer they were the VT poll and the AVCA poll.

We could also have the BCR, Pablo, Kern's Dominance and Strength of Schedule Ranking or the KRPI here - obviously there has to be some limit. My vote would be for either just the VT poll or the VT and the AVCA - not that my vote is probably worth much. ;D

Links are fine.

Or a stickie-message. I agree that the header makes things too cluttered.

It's there because the new VTAdmin is one of the voters in the Rich Kern poll. Hence, the major plug for it.

I like it up there - I also like his poll - links would be OK - guess many people are to slow to scroll down ;D

I like seeing the Rich Kern Poll up there and I would add the AVCA Poll too, so that all three are available for a quick visual comparison/reminder. It doesn't take a second to scroll past them.

Maybe there is some middle ground like showing the top 10 or so as a link to actual full rankings?

Just like 3 lines:

VT Ranking:1...2...3...4...5...
Rich Kern:1...2...3...4...5...
AVCA:1...2...3...4...5...

get the quick glance, with the possibility of a click for more and save some space?

I also think that things are too cluttered at the top. For me, I'd like to see the VT poll with links to RK, AVCA & BCR.

I didn't even notice the polls up there until I read the thread and looked to see what you guys were talking about.

I think the VT poll and Rich's are good ....these are the ones I look at most... throw in another if you want.

In my very humble opinion.

If this is true, there's a problem at the top. Politics and self-serving agendas have no place in this forum. I hope the new Admin is not corrupt.

corrupt?

do you think our new Admin is a Mexican Policeman or something?

Should we get some cheese to go with the wine? Come on guys! It is providing some information that does not hurt!

ESTRELLA ;D

What makes sense?

1. VT poll because, after all, this is the VT forum and the VT poll, even though I didn't vote, is OURS.

2. links to Rich Kern, Pablo, BCR, and AVCA. If you want another poll, AVCA. No one really cares about the other polls, honestly. But people do care and talk about the AVCA poll.

Alternatively,

1. VT poll as a sticky

2. Links to all other polls.

3. AVCA poll in the header because, it is the only poll that matters.

Alternatively,

1. The NCAA committe uses the BCR, so why not post that (where do you find it anyway?)

2. Links to all else

3. VT poll as a sticky

The header is very busy-looking, nay even trashy.
