What is the "view forum polls" button for?

[Mallow]

Ok, I don't get it. There is a button that states, "view forum polls" in the upper left hand portion of the screen. However, when I click it I get this, "Sorry, there are currently no polls."

I know for a fact that there are indeed some polls running in the ATOT forums at this very moment.
Example: #1, #2

Anyone shed any light on what the functionality of this feature is? Do only "super special cool" polls set forth by mods show up there?

It's just to get people to click it and wonder what it's for. I wish it'd give you a lsit of all the posts in that forum that has polls on them. That'd be cool.

That would be the best function of it yes...

If the function no longer exists <forum wide polls> they should just get rid of it :/
