I thought polls might be a fun and interesting way to get feedback from various questions into organized results. Just a thought, not in the slightest necessary.

Currently only mods can create polls, but we definitely do give poll permissions to members from time to time if they request it.

From my own experience running forums, when everyone can create polls it gets used way too often, polls become repetitive (the same questions are asked over and over), and it diminishes their overall effectiveness as people get tired of answering the same questions repeatedly.

That being said, if you want to create a poll for something interesting (this goes for everyone reading this) let me know and I will 100% give you access.

Good call, that makes a lot of sense, didn't think about that.

That sounds great! If I ever do I will send a proposal.

Thank you!

I would love to see a poll for " What size dose of red does it take for you vs green to get similar strength effects?" "When is your best burns at night or morning?"

Maybe charge a fee to put a poll since really any and all polls can be put either in kratom discussion or off topic. Let the money go to the increase in cost for domain, privacy, and hosting.

polls sound like a good way to start conversations!
