Results need to be from a confirmed subscribed account.
Until my website is properly functional this is the only way I can confirm people are subscribed and/or have an account.

You are aware of the fact that you won't get reliable statistical results this way?

And even if you did, you'd only measure the forum populace which is a minority of the actual community.

You're first point, right on!

Second point....all statistical samplings are minorities of the actual community being sampled, are they not?

By minority I meant a group that doesn't evenly represent the community.

Sampling only the forums will get you... well... trolls mostly, I suppose.

Can certainly see your point there. I stopped caring about giving reliable responses months ago.

On the other hand, there isn't a more reliable means for a play to disseminate such a questionnaire to other players. Ergo, while imperfect it is the most reliable means to perform such a survey without incurring burdensome costs. With a little statistical manipulation and correction accounting for the troll coefficient, it could still be reliable in the sense that there isn't a better mechanism available.
