If smooth does, you should talk to them and not ask for other opinions.
I have done, but the the number of people agreeing to this poll might influence him or give him the surety to take the stand and explain/present it when required.
I can only give you my view.
That is why i pmed you and still waiting for one .It's poll.
To boild it down:
Trying to influence others on DT is not ok, unless it is done with arguments.
Those on DT should give the ratings they think are deserved and should be free to change their mind.
I m not influencing from my side ,i m told that it will be influential .
