Polls -> automatically add "just show results"

The "view results" link in polls doesn't work. I don't know if the purpose of this is to prevent people from basing votes on the existing poll results. If that is the goal, it would make sense to add something to the phpbb template for this site so that when someone submits a poll the poll automatically adds a "I just want to see the poll results" option. That way, if someone chooses that option, they would be unable to vote, but would be able to see which poll options were the most and least chosen.

Also, since the "Show poll results" links in the current template don't work, it would make sense to remove them from the template, or, if they do work for administrators and/or moderators, it would make sense to hide it only for regular members.

Modifying phpbb templates is actually a fairly easy thing to do. These changes would likely take less than five minutes for someone who had the ability to modify the phpbb template files.
