Voting Booth
VBBS 6.12 Documentation -- 2-L-1
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ CHAPTER TWO ANNEX L B. VOTING BOOTH ║
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
VBBS' Voting Booth allows you to present your users with
a perpetual survey in which they can "vote" on particular issues
you define. Frequently-asked questions deal with political can-
didates, which online games should be registered/discontinued,
reasons for calling the BBS, how users first heard of your BBS,
how they like changes you've made, etc.
When you select this option from the VCONFIG Main Menu,
you will see a scrolling window containing the questions them-
selves. To select a question for editing, move the highlight
bar to the correct entry and press [Enter]. The question and
its responses will then be available for editing.
To add a new voting question, press [F1] at the scrolling-
window screen. You may then type in a question and supply up to
eight responses from which your users may choose.
The poll results are displayed as the number of users
choosing a particular answer, along with the percentage of the
total number of votes each choice received.
In the default START.V, if new questions exist, when a
user logs on, she is given the opportunity to vote. If the user
is up to date with the survey, the voting questions are ignored.
You may use option [D] from Screen Three of the MAIN configura-
tion to disable this automatic checking if you wish (see p. 15
for details).
There are several VSCRIPT-based voting programs avail-
able, any of which may be used in lieu of the default voting
procedures.
