They still perform a service. That service may be informational or just for humor (and some of them are funny even when that is not the intent).
It's a rare (non-existant?) thread (or poll) that can stay on topic and whose purpose is clear to all. Also, some polls have a lot of staying power because new members join the board daily.
For example, FloridaSpork said:
I started the "certifying agency poll" (and no offense is taken). FloridaSpork's comment shows that he read something into the poll that was not intended. The poll has nothing to do with which agency is better; however, it does provide some imperfect data on whether the board membership reflects the statistics provided by the certifying agencies in regard to the percentage of divers that they certify. As an unanticipated, but direct result of the poll, I also learned more about specialty and advanced certifying agencies than than I would have ever expected.
There are silly polls and polls that are of interest to only a small percentage of the board, but polls are no different than any other silly or special interest thread on this board.
