I don't disagree, but I am going to make a few points and other suggestions.
There may be a few rare occasions when the data you can generate from a poll could in fact be useful (as you said they are tool, and they can be helpful when used correctly) so it may not be the best idea to completely disable them. I would not have a problem if the poll option were disabled entirely on the boards (and it can be done, admin CP -> Forum control -> Manage -> Edit Settings -> Allow Polls flag). Or, you simply had one forum where all polls D2 related or not, would go. That way those who simply find no use in them at all could completely avoid that forum (which would most likely include myself, just like I pretty much never go into the Pandemonium Fortress since I am not looking for new people to play with or new party ideas. Then again it may not be worth it at all. It was just another idea that I wanted to throw out there.
