Hey, I searched for a thread on this, but no luck.
How do I turn a thread into a poll?

What Zherog said (also I believe Scribes can in the scribe forum then asked for them to be moved into the public forums), also the more recent poll threads were not polls. They are a result of merging many threads into one, like this thread.
