Poll: Why do people put "Poll:" in front of their questions?

I guess they want to remind you that they are conducting a poll.

I think it's because if you don't, you have to manually look for the category polls and surveys when posting a question. When you put poll in front of the question, it automatically chooses polls and surveys as the section to post the question to. It saves time.

Identification Purpose.

So people know it's a poll. And so they don't have to scroll through the list of suggested categories, it goes to p&a automatically instead.

So it the suggested category is Polls & Surveys.

You know how much work it is to manually get to the category when asking?

It's the poll witch people likes more the most

Too lazy to go to browse categories and look for polls and surveys lol

So we know its a poll

because you have to have so many letters to ask a question and sometimes poll or survey gets you there

I do so it automatically suggests polls and survey for me

So the report trolls can't report it and get it removed. Otherwise, the question will get attacked by them.
