Do you share your friend's polls?
It's been brought to my attention by a few of my friends that I have been sharing too much, too often and that it's bothering them. For this, I apologise, but the purpose of SodaHead is to share our opinions with our fellow SodaHeads. I've even had friends that I've had for years that have removed me from their friend-lists because I've been frequently sharing and to be fair I think that says more about them as individuals than it does about me.
Now, since we seem to be a courtroom drama let me state my case to those who have been secretly judging me:
I don't believe that I'm doing anything wrong. because I'm not the only person who could be sharing content and if all of you shared all of the polls you've answered or created then mine would be mingled in with others and wouldn't start out so much. Not to mention that SodaHead would be more lively as a result and every time we visited the carousels for each topic we wouldn't be seeing the same questions over and over again.
So now that you've read what I have to say, please consider whether this problem is due to my sharing polls too often or you just not sharing enough?
Sharing takes the pressing of exactly two buttons, so it's not like it's time consuming or requires effort. :o)

Astro-Boy PHAET 2011/02/18 05:02:59Yes.+9Are you referring to the time I attacked you for sharing a question with me and made a poll about it and wept endlessly?? LOL






















I don't like to bug people, and I don't know what my entire list of friends enjoy answering. Especially now, that there are points associated with sharing, I don't want to offend anyone.
Dark Demonic, I'm fine with the multiple sharings, but only if you're not doing so to rush to the higher levels.
LMAO! just kidding!
I know that people like to share, but in a perfect world I'd like my inbox to be a little holier. I really like to go through every question I'm sent (and I do.) I want to value my friends and their questions (as stupid as that may sound.) People are asking way more questions now because of competition on the leaderboard (and I'm guilty of that too.) But, I'm taking a big step back from that, how I rave, and who I friend on here.
So many people on here ask the same questions or variations of other questions that you end up with a lot of the same stuff.
Personally, I don't think you should get points for sharing... it's like catching a cold and passing it back and forth :)
Dark Demonic, I like getting stuff from you your questions are always original and fun. You have somewhat of an intellect :)
I have noticed more sharing since the institution of the points system (not just from you, from a few people), which means I wind up answering less polls because I have to go through more to decide what I want to answer, leaving less time to actually answer. I've only got so much time in the day for this site.
But to realistically answer your question, I only share a poll when I feel that it is either a good question or if it struck me as something I felt my friends would enjoy. The share button is there for a reason and I hardly ever go and look at the recent polls, usually just stick to what is in my shared questions.
okay bye bye now.......?......
Last year there was a point when I was posting at least 20 questions a day. The most I've ever posted in a day was around 50 or so. Right now I'm in spontaneous, fun phase and I don't think it's fair that people are trying to bum me out just because they aren't happy.
These new changes are drawing in new members and increasing activity whether people like it or now and it's going to increase, so people can either try to keep up or they can move out of the way. Either way change is here and if my friends were enjoying themselves I'd be happy for them.
I, at this time, have no problems with others sharing with me.
Do I think you have done wrong? Nope.
Do what ya like and Share what you like.
If it interests me I will visit it, if not I won't. If I visit and it interests me enough to do anything I will, if not I won't...
If I get annoyed at the Shared questions, I'll clear em. If not and that is the most likely, I won't.
I just don't give a f--k if people share or not. It is that simple.
