floating polls

Hi, could we have the poll feature changed to detach it from threads?

Problem: I put polls in the 2020 RHP Prose contest, however due to a lot of posts, some people missed those threads.

Solution: If we could put polls to be Independent of threads and fix them to the Forum in the way Blogs are fixed to the "Chess only" Forum we could offer more people just to poll without going through a lot of posts in a thread.

OK I know the obvious solution is to create a thread to each vote, but that would clutter the Forum if one tries to make a few polls on organisation.

The same vote can be poll more than once, or even shared in messages.

Just use the poll tag and the same poll id, and you can use it anywhere tags are accepted.

Ah thank you, that is of Course an Option I disregarded...

My first sentence was utter gibberish! I did a late edit, and, well, that was the outcome.

What I was trying to say was => "The same poll can be posted more than once, or even shared in messages."
