No end dates on polls cause to remove?

Why does the site allow users to post a poll without an end date if that is a reason for a moderator to remove it?

Shouldn't there be a requirement to include an end date before we post?  I forgot to add one and lost the poll, even though I had tried (unsuccessfully) to add one on my own.

The software won't let us force an end date. If it could we would.

Thanks for clarifying!  I meant to add an end date and forgot.  I've messed up a couple of attempts, but hopefully three is a charm.  ;D

If you do mess up and can't change it try contacting one of the admins/mods.  We should be able to make the change and save you some grief if you notice something after the timeframe to modify a post passes.

Thank you.  That sounds great!
