To create a poll, click the icon at the top of the page. You must be logged on to create polls.

1. Enter the question that the poll-takers will be answering.
2. Choose which type of poll you want to create. You can limit the poll-takers to one selection per vote or you can allow them to pick as many as they want.
3. Enter up to 10 options from which the poll-takers will be able to select for their answer. If you want to use less than 10 options, leave the box blank.
4. Click "Create".

To vote on polls, click the icon at the top of the page. Open on a poll of your choosing by clicking on the subject. Select the option(s) you would like to vote for and then click "Vote".

To edit or delete a poll you created, view it and then click the edit or delete button in the lower right. This can only be done before anyone has voted on your poll.

1. Hateful, malicious or harassing polls are not allowed.

2. Post under only one name. You may only create 5 polls in 24 hours.

3. Try to stay on the topic of names.

4. Try to make your polls legible. Minimize the netspeak.

5. If you feel someone is breaking the rules, email me. Don't give trolls the attention they crave.
