Issue Summary
This isn't enabled for authenticated users out of the box, which is why it doesn't show up at #472590: Meta-issue: Make posting form more like phpBB's, but forum moderators (by default; configurable) can also choose to post polls to the forum:
Comments
#1
Drupal 6 will allow you to put a poll node type in the forums, whether that be core poll or advanced poll, so that is one option. The downside is it doesn't really work like PHPBB where it's more adding a poll to a post rather than the poll being the post. Another option is http://drupal.org/project/pollfield which is D5 only and wasn't that great when I tried it a year or so ago. There's an issue to port it to D6 and maybe with some love it might be a good option.

I went with just crappy core poll module. It's not quite as nice, in that you can't post bodies on polls for some inexplicably stupid reason, and you can't allow users to choose multiple options, but it should work for now.
Very nice touch that AF automatically makes a nice "New poll" button at the top when I do this! :D

Just for reference: #149880: Add body field for Polls
Yeah, AF works with any node type named "poll" IIRC. Doesn't matter where it comes from. It was one of those that I assumed a lot of forums would have so put it in. :)
