Whenever I come to the board I always click on 'New Posts' and check through the latest comments. But the system doesn't discriminate (as far as I can tell) between new votes in a poll, and new posts in a poll thread. So if someone has recently voted in 50-odd polls, 'New Posts' returns 50-odd new entries (as has just happened). There doesn't seem to be a way of knowing which are merely new votes added to a poll (probably most of them) and which are new posts added to a poll thread (perhaps none at all), other than checking them all - which can take ages, often for little return if it's actual posts rather than votes you're looking for.
My guess is that there's no way around this and we have to live with it. But is there, in fact, a solution?
