On invision board, there is an option to create a poll-only thread, where the thread will only be open to voting, with no option to reply to the thread.

It would be neat if that option existed here at WHT. It would make those political polls alot easier to maintain.

That's not possible on vB2 or 3 off the shelf. But maybe a modification might do the trick. I know IPB had that for some time.
