Polls Creation its Own Permission

Mother Vain

Please make polls its own permission, NOT anyone who can post.

The current method of polls is, forgive me, insane. Anyone who can post can create a poll? No this is just going to lead to tons of spam messages after a poll and make everything disorganized. I envision a poll channel where people can post polls only but can't send additional messages, making sure that all the polls are seen without a spam of messages after it debating the poll (and making the poll disappear in a sea of messages). Please make polls its own permission.

    I also wouldn't mind if polls created its own thread underneath it, so the discussion is isolated, but the poll itself should have its own permission and not be lost in a sea of messages.

    I posted my concerns on GitHub: https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/pull/6746#issuecomment-2043302477

    I'll also share them here as well because this is absolutely needed. 

    We have permissions for:
    - Sending messages
    - Embedding links
    - Attaching files
    - Using external emoji
    - Using external stickers
    - Sending voice messages

    If we have permissions for all of these individually, then why is polls and the creation of polls the exception? 

    There's real concerns with this as some communities may start to fill up with users just spamming polls and there's already been some videos posted about polls being misused to fill up screen space even more (specifically mobile) because there's naturally more screen space used for the UI elements.

    Please, I beg of you, pull this back and add a permission.
