stickylies Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Only two and a half thousand members participted? That's less than 2% of the claimed membership. So, does that mean 98% of the members don't care? Or maybe many aren't active. Or simply no longer exist as members, but their accounts do? Sorry, but self-congratulation from such a small survey of what is effectively a captive audience doesn't cut it for me. I also never saw the survey, and I've been pretty active for several months, so let's run it again with a bit more fanfare, huh? jup, many accounts are dormant/obsolete since one cannot DELETE account...

JLCrab Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 At the end of the survey they asked for any recommendations. I said: Set a limit for maximum posts per day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 At the end of the survey they asked for any recommendations. I said: Set a limit for maximum posts per day. In fairness, it was a topic in the General Forum ... http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/703972-thaivisa-member-survey-2014-win-2-nights-at-a-luxury-hotel/ But since it was locked, there were no updates, so nothing to keep it on the first page for all to see (hint). Next time, lock it, but 'update' every so often so that it stays near the front of the General Forum (hint, hint) I am the 7,000th viewer (is there a prize for that), so a fair wack of the active members must have viewed it. So, when I opened it ... the first question was ... are you male or female. Being Thailand, I thought that was a limiting opening ... I didn't progress past the front page.

marquis22 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Lets' run another poll to see how many members actually saw the survey. I didn't. Lets run a poll asking who reads the first page comprehensively listing all the topics? I saw the survey mentioned twice and I do not read TV every day.

impulse Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Wow! Thank you very much Thai Visa! I will certainly enjoy 2 nights in bkk, much appreciated. Check the fine print. The prize is 2 nights in the hotel. Doesn't say anything about a room. But I hear the lobby is beautiful...with very comfy chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 20% sampling of a membership is considered a minimum level for most scientifically-based research polls for a group of this nature. 2% is pretty paltry. You can basically discount the results as being too minuscule to have any validity whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanted scientific, you'd also have to put a breathalyzer on everybody's keyboard to weed out drunken responses. But then you'd be down into fractions of a percent. Still and all, an interesting read. Edited February 28, 2014 by impulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirineou Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 (edited) Five-thirds of those surveyed were impaired at the time, and their answers should be ignored, this leaves us with only with the other five-five thirds Edit due to impairment Edited March 1, 2014 by sirineou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
