So the results of the previous poll after two days make a fairly strong argument against "chancing" in this forum with a tally of 8 in favor and 99 against. Moving forward, suggestions in how to manage these postings were mostly in favor of continuing to provide a means for prospective students to initiate a dialog with the community. I have taken your suggestions and have created a follow-up poll to find middle ground. Please refer to the comments of the additional poll if you haven't been following this discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/OMSCS/comments/7jcpjy/should_we_continue_to_allow_chancing_in_this_sub/?st=jb6x77hp&sh=759dbf9e.
