    This happens so often, how long before a change is made so that there isnt constant "keto gummies" or "cbd gummies" polls?

    They only ever get posted by users with 5 posts or less ,and how often do we really have a use case of a new member needing to post a poll that was actually a good poll post / meant to be a poll?

    Can we not just limit polls to users with at least 5 posts, this is a low barrier for entry to a real user, but will prevent these bots getting through

    It doesn't matter if is poll or not. It is spam. And if it is a spam, just use report.
    Making more noise using keywords in post is not wise, it brings only more attention from search engines.

    It is now an ex-spam. Spam that once was but now is not. A spacious area where spam occupied is now vacant. True has become false. The End.
