Hi Richard, These surveys could be a lot better than they are.
1. The data collected is not blind. It is traceable to the participant who filled out the survey. 2. The questions are not all available at once so that one can decide if they want to participate or not. The participant has no idea how many questions there are, what the questions are that will be asked, or how much time he/she will have to devote to answering the questions. 3. The survey when it asks questions like: Would you like to see project XYZ implemented?, then almost immediately asks: If so, how much money would you be willing to pledge to this project right now? This seems more like an attempt to bully people out of their money, rather than an attempt to collect some blind data about support for a project. The approach for money should take place separately from the survey which should be blind only data collected. I think a lot of people in our community have caught onto this unfair approach, and may have given up on responding to such surveys. Consequently, LiveCode Ltd., isn’t getting enough data to make correct assessments with their surveys. Just my 2 cents. :-| Rick > On May 13, 2016, at 12:36 PM, Richard Gaskin <rich...@livecode.org> wrote: > > To help turn myriad list posts into actionable information, LiveCode conducts > several surveys of the user base each year... _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
