I know this site is pretty white but there should be an option for multi-racial.
I was like 80% sure there were going to be questions on the current direction of the forums
I guess this might be a little late, but would people be opposed to doing a new one with a thread for user input on questions beforehand?
why are you asking about the american presidency & american gun control on a site wide survey? there's more than americans around here
I'm definitely not, I bit off more than I could chew with this. If someone with a little more experience wants to take another crack at it.
I'm really sorry guys
Don't apologize, there's nothing for people to actually be upset about here.
Felt really awkward answering questions about American politics, besides, this forum largely started as more of a gaming forum.
It didn't feel fair for me to put my opinions about American politics in a survey about the forum. Might give people an idea about this forum's leanings (Yes, I know its largely left leaning, but it should remain apolitical most importantly)
You don't want some random right wing/left wing nut job going 'OH HEY THIS FORUM GOES WITH MY VIEWS'
I would highly recommend not showing the political results when the main results are concluded.
Yeah, because the first thing new users do... is check the census results? This has been done every year for like 6-7 years straight, it's nothing new.
That seems to be the general consensus, I figured since threads on american politics seem to fill the board they'd be fitting here but seems like I misjudged that. Thanks for filling it out!
Filled it out. Definitely needs proofreading and I also agree that the politics section is too US-centric. Still a far cry better than the first one I did way back in the day with the old forum poll system.
Post count bracket is a bit narrow tbh. There's plenty of losers with well over 20k posts.
yo
Good one this year, only gripe was the questions about american politics at the end, Im not entirely up to date with it, and im sure many of us around the world aren't as interested at all
i feel like i should get a voucher for giving you my data mr. analytica
I did the last census, and what I got from the feedback is that we should probably split them up into:
A) a general + games census
B) a music/movies/TV census
C) a politics census
Since games are the biggest shared interest here, I think we can combine it with the main one just fine, but turns out a lot of people don't follow music, movies or politics too much. I wanted to make a big one when I made mine, but the people who care about these niches end up thinking the questions could go a bit deeper, while the people who don't care end up thinking the census is bloated
If there's people up for making one or more of these, they can make a pre-census thread in the appropriate subforum (especially now that polidicks allows for more than news) and ask what people want to see, then wait for some feedback and hopefully release the questions together (not necessary, but it's best for them to get the most attention)
any other nationality doesnt even make for a double digit representation, except maybe the brits but even then iirc barely.
Don't want to come off as a fedora-tipper, but it's annoying that 'agnoistic' is an option. Has nothing to do with the list, it's a misused word.
what's wrong with it
Did it, primary method of watching films is multiple choice tho and probably shouldn't be
how is it misused/have nothing to do with the list?
I’m agnostic so no, I don’t think it is.
Because you can be an agonstic atheist, or an agnostic theist. It doesn't specify if your views are religious or not. All it means is "I don't know with absolute certainty". It's one of the most mis-used words ever. But I guess what's important is it's usage, so it doesn't matter all that much.
Should be some questions on whether people like the forum refresh, whether people think the forum is dying, etc. I've noticed a steep drop off in activity in the corners I frequent.
Just gonna point out Caucasian is more than a little bit of a misnomer and most surveys have just moved to using White because it makes more sense.
I'm really interested to finally see how many trans members we have, it's always seemed like a good number of active members. I don't think that was separated out in previous years was it?
"On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate the current presidency?"
Which of them? There's quite a few!

Yeah I just skipped the American politics questions. Otherwise a good survey.
I'm from the U.S. and the political questions were still kind of out of nowhere. I don't really follow politics so probably my fault. Good survey though, excited for the results.
