That is wrong... just wrong. Why is it a mod only function now?
I think anyone should make polls, because
A-It helps make decisions.
B-It sparks all kinds of interesting debates.
C-It's fun! It was one of the most fun things to do in the old forum, and people suggested many things to improve the system.

I never used it myself, but I don't think anyone had abuse the system. I think anyone should make polls, if anyone abuse it, then they can just be muted or banned.

As far as I know, this is created to avoid idiotic orientated polls such as:
"what's better, goku super sayian 4 or chocolate ice-cream?"

...

On the other hand, I think that polls should be allowed to users inside the spam section, and maybe in other sections (Except for the "other section").

Besides that, I think that there should be a topic in which people request mods for polls, and if we see them worthy enough, we create them.

So you're saying that you can't simply lock the damn topic and give back everyone's right to debate?

A poll has nothing to do with debating, dumbass.

When I say debate I mean using it for something like, "who should make this RP?" or something jackass.

polls are a very unreliable source for debates. They are too easily manipulated and misused.

Then maybe no one should be able to use them, in that case.
