How about a poll option where users can make their own poll and Other users can vote.(Note: It would be an extra option for instead of a stand alone Topic/Section.) For example, someone could make a poll in the Motoring Topic Saying, Which is the best car for a family of 5, then he/she would list the 5 cars that they thought were best for them, Giving Other users the chance to vote for which they would choose or which they think would be the best for the person who Post the question. Please Post ur opinions here.
Would the poll be be ongoing (results displayed on screen as they're submitted) or subject to a deadline of a day or so when the results are known? The latter would produce a truer result but requires more patience from users.
