Allow polls in forum

Sometimes,

instead of a simple discussion about the better is voting for or against. There is a lack of utility in this forum. Sometimes we do not have the strength to write the same thing and the same thing, just give my voice.

Best Regards.

    Polls have been used on this site in the past, but there are technical reasons that limit their suitability.

    What is the reason?

    Polls are difficult to moderate and we don't want users creating polls when the topic should have been a question, as they won't show up on searches in the same way. A poll can be voted on but never 'answered', and we can't turn polls into questions or vice-versa.

    If you agree with someone and don't want to post a reply saying so, then use the LIKE button underneath every post - that's what it's there for.
