How do I post a new poll? is it possible? I have no clue how.
While I'm at it, it'd be good if someone made an introduction/faq post for newcomers that introduces Diablo3.com and gives instructions on all the functions. I can't find one if there is one.
Like, how do people get 'referrals'?
And, is it possible to view other people's reputations?

You can post polls freely in all forums except in the Polls forum and the News forum. All threads need to be accepted by a moderator before being put up there.
There's been some confusion on this matter lately regarding polls. But do post it, and if we deem it ok, it will appear in the Polls section. From now that is.

Yes, that's a good idea. There's a FAQ at the top of the page next to the Image Gallery, but that's pretty much a general vBulletin FAQ. We'll improve on it if necessary.

When a person registers an account, they can enter if they've been referred to the site by an already registered member. If that's the case, they enter said account name, and that person gets a referral.

Yes, but only us mods
Seriously though, if you hover over the green icon, you can see a general description of a persons reputation. But the only two people with a noticable rep are Silver and Elfen (go figure :D)
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

Edit: I'm gonna use the reputation thing more often.
Please do. Judging from looking at people's numerical reputations, I can only draw the conclusion that the feature is hardly used. At least no anymore :confused:

I had my first reputation just before for coming up with an 'Extremely good and original theory on Azmodan and Belial' lol. Thanks whoever did that, I'm not sure who, I don't think it says. I assume it was Brainpan though, he seemed to have liked what I said
but yeah, if it wasn't for that I would have had no idea about the reputation button.
EDIT: Oh, I just looked at the 'FAQ' button at the top of the page, and it actually tells me how to create polls and what referals are lol. Woops, sorry. I used the search function for 'faq' but it didn't come up anything at all. I guess it doesn't count cause its not in a thread.
But it doesn't talk about personal reputations, I don't think. And it doesn't say that you can't create polls in the Polls thread. There is a warning in the description of the Poll thread, but it says 'News Posts' not 'Poll Posts'... i guess thats a typo. Someone should fix it...

That would have to be Elfen or Umaro, I can't do that.

Seems I cannot fix that, Umaro would be the one to call to fix that little mistake. I have passed on several notes to Umaro about updating the FAQ. It is rather dated.
Reputation is barely used here, as there is no real reward for having a high reputation. It's primary function is to determine whether a user is a reliable person i nregards to what he says on the forums, or they have offered a very constructive, informative, entertaining point of view, or they have done something you felt earned them some more rep points.

ok i know how to post the poll and thread etc .. but after writing out a lengthy message and explanation to accompany my poll , i prepared myself to wait for the moderators to review my poll and either accept or decline it , which is fair enough .. but the problem i have is the fact that after writing it all out and pressing the enter button .. i now have absolutely no record of its status .. there is nothing (that i can find) in my subscribed threads section to say that ive sent this , do i need new glasses or could a feature be added to let us know the status of our pending threads and polls etc .. maybe nobody else does .. but i'd certainly find it useful to know if the moderators declined my poll etc .. so i could atleast avoid writing another useless one or even refrain from writing the same one over and over thinking that it hasnt sent ...
on that note .. could a moderator possibly let me know if they got my poll or not ??..if not i can atleast write it out again..lol .. thanks

I was wondering what the green icon meant.

We have quite a lot of polls already. Maybe time to slow down?

EDIT: It seems good enbough, I've approved it.
