I suggest just getting good at rolling? You'll have time
1. Explain how you know this please? Putting up an open poll is a good way to draw a random sample in this situation; there is no selective polling of players with toons of a certaint level, or polling players from a particular guild / guilds. Anyone who sees the poll can vote if they want to.

2. Again, reading comprehension goes a long way. Where did I say it is a fact that the poll does show a significant majority either way? The fact I stated is that 5% of the population in this situation is a large enough sample to have a 95% degree of confidence that the results are accurate plus or minus 8% (i.e. 52% voted yes at the time of the calculation therefore there is a 95% chance that 44%-60% of the players on the server are in favor of limiting the roll to characters 55+).

I already said in a previous post that this is not a large enough majority to warrant a change in my opinion. Because of your difficulties with reading comprehension you misunderstood what was meant by my saying that we can be confident that the results of this poll are fairly accurate.

But you're polling sample is likely inherently biased one way or another so as not to represent the average server player who may find him/herself wanting a bracer some day.
What proof do you have that its biased? And in what way do you think it is biased? I am trying to understand how you are drawing this conclusion.
