If it was enforced like on Gamefaqs, it wouldn't be enforced at all. Keep in mind that you're literally on the site's "What Poll of the Day?" board.

PotD is a weird exception, in that it grew into a social board independent of the poll. On most non-social boards, topicality is enforced.

Social pressure does that in most places. You might just be immune to it.

Indeed. Walk into a conversation where everybody's talking about skateboarding and try talking about knitting, and you'll pretty immediately be shut down by the fact that nobody engages with you. It's not a formal rule and there's no external enforcement, but it's generally pretty difficult to go anywhere talking about something that nobody around you wants to talk about.
