add polls

add a feature to do a poll

Polls everywhere.

Whatever. They'll just be visual fluff. A poll in the forums has no relevance anyway. It'ds been suggested many times already. I don't think adding forum features must rank much high on Steam's to-do list.

Also... It may get more people banned solicitng people to 'vote on their poll'

I can instantly see certain types of forum frequenter bombarding games they don’t like with polls.

There's a big risk in adding polls to Steam as people might use this for nefarious acts such as propaganda, distrust, hate, and many more. Yes, there are pros for this one, as we could know the opinions of others very well, but having this enabled can cause a huge headache on moderation. Especially the manpower to manage these. And besides, we are built differently, and we have different outlooks on life. What can cause more harm is the cons of this idea.

These are discussion forums where opinions are expressed.

We tried polls on the old forum. It went as well as you can imagine.
