Poll creation

[montybojangles]

Is it possible for players to create polls in game-related forums? Poll creation is enabled in this forum (one of the tabs below Preview and Submit) but not in the games-related ones I've looked at. Does an admin have to enable it? If that's the case, who has to be contacted, and how?

Specifically, I'd like to set up a 'What is your favourite faction?' poll in the Gaia Project forum, with one selected from a choice of the 14 factions. Perhaps to run for a month?

Thanks!

Sadly it's not possible currently, I hope they can activate it for all games.

Thanks for the prompt reply thoun. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it can be implemented at some point.

Even if it's less user-friendly, you still can ask this question directly.

The players will answer writing some text which can be more interesting/detailed than just a +1 for a specific faction.

But I want a pretty graph ! Seriously, though, a poll would be useful for time limiting and counting results. I'm all in favour of players discussing reasons for their choice, and will probably start something next month, so watch this space - or, more accurately, the Gaia Project forum. Thanks for the encouragement.
