Pete32 as svenseidenberg says you need to fully form your question in the message. Forms isn't an interactive chat bot where you can build up your survey over a series of messages when working in the channel. If you simply '@forms' and hit return you will just get the below.
Hit return and not much happens.
But if you structure your message as follows it should work:
'@forms Question you want to ask follows by a question mark? answers, seperated, by, commas'
Then hit return and the message will be posted and converted to a form in the channel as below.
Hit return and you get the below.
Hopefully that answers your question. If not and I have missed something or misunderstood what you are asking please let me know.
