If there is a winning server, it will have garnered 4% of the people registered here.
I'm not sure how this is unfair. 40 people is not a lot of people. We've had a lot of new people coming to the RPC in the last two months, and those people are getting their vote. If we had more than 40 votes for two different servers, I don't see why it wouldn't be appropriate to have a section for each of those servers. We do have a minimum in place to make it relevant.
Also, if we opened up the RPC to registrations while the poll is going on, what is to stop someone from creating a ton of dummy accounts and flooding the polls simply to get a new section of the forum open? It has happened before, and could happen again.
It needs to be worth the time and effort for us to put in a new section of the forums. I understand we could get new moderators, but that also takes time to figure out who would make a good moderator and who could be trustworthy.
I'm pretty sure that we'd be open to suggestions. What do you think would be a number that would be great enough to warrant another section of the forums. I honestly have no idea, as this is really the first site that I've moderated for other than my own linkshell's website.
