I have an Idea.
Well on the gameplay forum I was reading that the radio net work was back online. And I got this idea for a nationstates newsletter on the forum. Anyway I have this thing on my computer to create a newletter offline. the only problem I have is I don't know who to talk to, to get this approved and I don't know how to get the newsletter onlne from offline.

I like the idea. Just post your ideas here and people will discuss them. Also, this is a great place for polls, as was said by one of the mods.

Polls in Technical are a BIG no-no.
Anyway, I believe the initial idea is a good one, though I'm not sure what admin will be towards it.

One of the mods has a sticky in the tech forum (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=1224) . It lists the things that the tech forum (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=1224) should be used for.
Ideas for improvements. (Great place for polls)
Maybe SalusaSecondus is wrong, I don't know, but that's what it says.
See for yourself. Here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=275323) is the link.
But then, later, it says:
Actually, almost any poll doesn't belong here. It must be directly related to tech.
This is a contradiction. Slausa, you should correct this. Give us a final answer please.

Meaning that basically the only time you're going to want a poll in the Tech forum is if you have an idea for a game improvement, when you might want to find out what others think of your idea with a poll.

Final answer: this is off-topic, and polls are pointless in this forum.

And final clarification from myself (though it seems very clear already).
If you are recommending a change to the game, that's a good use for a poll to see how popular it is among the players. Besides that, there is no call for polls here. It all seems very straightfoward to me.
