Why the forum polls button? *Poll*

Yes, I know this has been posted in the past but I'm really seeing no point to it just like all the other threads in the past discussing this. Here are some links to those threads:

I honestly see no point to them at all and neither have those previous threads because for the past 2 or 3 years, there haven't been any polls. Could we either get some polls or get it removed?

Doh! But seriously, does it serve any purpose right now?

No, it just thought that was funny.

LOL.

Keep it if it will be of some use someday.

You can use stylesheets or something like privoxy to filter web content to your heart's desire; it's just text/html afterall. I haven't seen the polls button in ages.

Ya it's completely useless.

We've mentioned that to them over and over again but they have no plans to fix it.
