Before I talk about the old/new polls, let's remember that this weekend is Otakon 2008! It's the largest convention on the East Coast (I think...). We have a discussion thread about it here: http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=4637. As a footnote, site creator Manick is attending Otakon, but I don't think he wants any site visitors to recognize him...Don't worry, next year at AnimeExpo, I'll be happy to talk with any of you guys~
And...why shouldn't I give some attention to the 2008 Summer Olympics? If you haven't seen the opening ceremonies yet, you REALLY should watch it in whatever possible form of media you have access to. The sheer impressive nature, beauty, difficulty of coordinating such a show, and engineering marvels is awesome. With that said, that does not mean I endorse China's views on political reasoning. I am just stating that the opening ceremony was a good show to watch.
Now for the poll. This poll is a special request from a personal friend of mine by the name of Tiffany (there's your shout-out, so don't bug me anymore). If the poll utterly phails, then blame her. Easy enough poll to answer, so there should be no problems there...
Talk about the new poll on our forum:
http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=7083
Previous Poll Results:
Question: Has manga/anime inspired you to learn the language?
Choices:
Japanese - votes: 5824 (58.3%)
Chinese - votes: 131 (1.3%)
Korean - votes: 136 (1.4%)
Other...Does English count? - votes: 967 (9.7%)
Not even trying. It's too hard! - votes: 1059 (10.6%)
Tried...and failed... - votes: 1087 (10.9%)
More than 1. I'm a genius! - votes: 794 (7.9%)
There were 9998 total votes.
The poll ended: August 9th 2008
I was expecting these results, but was more interested in the number of people that voted on the other options. Interestingly, we were 2 votes away from 10,000 people...but I couldn't wait...

no matter how many pages the chapter has if there are doble pages ilustrations. they might be good in an artistic way but it slows down the story 2 pages unless they rarely put dialogues in it.

I have a feeling that Manick doesn't have a nose, wears a glove, and looks ghastly pale......hmmmm........Or he's the 50 year old dude, wearing the Sailor Moon outfit. It's cool, I support your inner self.
Lamb is just praising the Olympics because he's...will, you know why.

Actually, I dislike the way China runs things. I don't wanna visit China at all even though I'm Chinese myself. I'm not traditional Chinese either.

I <3 the "I really don't care..." option... because I never thought about the qs and, tbh, I don't really care about it either o_O
Also, it shows my general view of most things =P

Like those EMOs? "I don't care, but I can't end my own life because I'm too afraid, but I say I want to because I need help"

Hmm... nope, not really. o_O
I mean I don't care about most things because most things are trivial. I don't not care just because of stupid fashion trends. I care about relevant things though ^^

try to stop breathing because breathing has been a fad for a long time.
