To make a Poll:

• You need to have reached at least level two. (See /cap)
  
• The poll has to be the first post in a thread.
  
• There is no editing of a poll once you submit it.
  
• Use lower case for the poll command.
  

The format for a single choice poll is:

[poll]Ask your question?,Choice 1,Choice 2,Choice3,etc.[/poll]
Note: The comma before the first option and after the others is required.



The format for a multiple choice poll is:

[mpoll]here is my question,question1,question2,question3,etc.[/mpoll]
Note: The comma before the first option and after the others is required.

It should look something like this:



If a poll is accepted, during the preview stage it should display:



Finished product:



Want to use commas in your poll? See this faq entry.

Want to use a link or URL in your poll? Do it like this:

[poll] TEXT TEXT TEXT?,YES,NO [/poll]

Images may be used for choices:

Note: There is a 255 character limit (including html tags) for each choice.

FYI: Polls can now be "closed" to prevent further votes.
