Wrong. they cannot and do not and that is the one major fallacy of such systems when used. They do not represent the millions by any means they only represent those that took part in the pool. To draw out any conclusion by such a sample is a false presumption that the sample by any means represents the masses involved. It does not and never did or ever will. There is no way anyone can factually or rightfully assume that just because a group of x amount of people said something that the rest of the people fit within that group ever. To do so is foolish. 11k people is non significant to bungie for again that 11k is a minority of the actual players of the game. They are not going to tailor the game to the minority. All that it says is that those people want it, it by no means represents what the rest of the players think or feel about the game at all. Using your logic if poll was made asking to ban you.. and if out of the 100 that answered 80 said yes that would mean that bungie should do it...a very illogical reaction based on an non significant amount of forum users responding to the poll. Especially when the poll was contrived in such a way that yes was the only answer that made the respondent not look dumb. Biased polls are biased and not valid because of being biased. Bias DOES determine significance by a lot. Something that is biased in by no means factual or representative of the truth of the majority, just a minority. to make a change based upon a minority is a very bad way of doing things. for often that minority does not have the majority interests in mind only their own. and making that change could upset the majority which is more harmful then trying to make the minority happy.
