Title: Survey
Post by: cooliojazz on September 30, 2011, 12:33:35 am
Hey everyone, just wanted you to be aware that I (Cooliojazz) am abusing Omnimaga for a survey for my stats class.  So I will be sending a pm to 60 of you randomly asking you to visit a webpage and answer a very simple question.  So if you get one, and don't mind taking part to help me, please visit it and answer :)  Also, anyone else who wants to join, I'll collect a separate set of data and report them out combined to you guys later, so if you want, visit http://unrealphantasies.tk/survey.php Also, those who are asked or choose to participate, please dont't abuse it, take it once and be done.  kthbai!!
EDIT: I apologize to those of you who got PMs, I totally spaced out the bbc and wrote it as html with brackets XD  Also, if someone gets two, im sorry, my script isnt perfect, please smack me then move on.

Hm..random numbars?
It might work better to take a list of *active* members and choose from that, there's many who only posted once or twice and that could've been a year or or more ago :P

Yeah, had been better if you picked the ones who have like 40 posts and more.

I'm not sure what I should answer on the first question. Is it about the government of the USA?

Title: Re: Survey
Post by: cooliojazz on September 30, 2011, 11:09:06 am
Well, there are two questions.... But they are asking the same thing.  Also, who was messing with it and put in a response of 127? O_o

I received your random PM but didn't understood the question ( I'm French, so... ^^ )

You asked if we wanted tu fund this states by our programs or the governement funds our programs to help this states ?


Or I didn't understood everything... ^^


Bye.


PS: you can translate too if possible ^^

Hmm, people miss the new on the front page it seems. Two people already reported the PMs lol.
Now I'm wondering why reported PMs get sent as pm and not emailed.

French translation: Seriez-vous favorable pour augmenter les impôts afin que le gouvernement peut financer davantage de programmes pour soutenir les personnes dans le besoin comme l'Afrique ou dans les zones sinistrées telles que (récemment) Haïti?

EDIT: For the record, it wasn't me.

I don't think so. I think coolio's using Omnimaga because it has a large userbase that knows him :D

Hece the "abuse" ;D  Also, thanks everybody who participted, greatly appreciated :D I'll post something here about the results in a couple days, feel free to keep voting! (As long as you haven't before)  Also, I apologize to the non-english members for not taking you into consideration :\  I would fix it, but its probably kinda pointless now XD

The non-english can give their opinion too, even if it doesn't concern us directly.

I voted, but I think you should probably have tried to make it more secure before posting it, even if it required help, else it might have greatly falsified the results. Also some members probably never got the PM if they do not frequent Omni regularly.

I was also surprised this was in news since it was totally not related to calcs. Actually I heard some people reported it for spam/advertising x.x so we might want to be careful so people won't see Omni as a spam site.

We posted it because we wanted people to know it wasn't just random spam.

The first day I'm on Omnimaga ! My first PM is a "spam" ! LOL ^^
Title: Re: Survey
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 05, 2011, 04:08:38 pm
Lol yeah. But yeah Eeems it should probably not happen too often, though, else this might tarnish Omnimaga reputation regarding unsolicited PMs/e-mails or about the relevancy of our front page news articles.

On a side note welcome here louloux. Lol sometimes I confuse you with Loulou 54 because TI-Planet has a member of that name and he's (she's?) a member of Omni as well ;D
