It should be based on (recent) experiences. Therefore the minimum is once a week, else you can not answer the survey properly. It's set up like that simply so people do not spam in their responses, without verification it has no use as anybody can write things as much as they want. We're not going to use the survey against anybody, I don't know on what you base that on but I'm sure you can't provide that statement with arguments / proof. Why hold a survey for those who don't touch the mod? Excuse me I do also recall you have a forum section of the survey. So maybe I was filling it in for the purposes of the forum, which I use regularly. You need to realise you have not covered all the options. Which gives you false information. If I answer I use the mod once a week. that's giving you false information. Making the whole survey a biased answered survey. Well actually I could actually provide proof. but then you would ban me for some kind of breach or something. Surveys don't need verification. How do you think the big companies deal with it? they just deal with the non legitimate information like grown ups. 1 1 || || Currently: || || Former: || || || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not a company, this is a community and we want the user input to improve our services. We chose for verification, as it makes things much clearer. There are plenty of people who'd enter the survey multiple times and therefore give us false information. We are not looking for that, we are looking for genuine feedback and user experiences. And not 10 entries from 1 person. 1 I wonder if you look both ways when you cross my mind.. Be slow to critize, be fast to appreciate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You chose for verification because you want to associate someone with what their writing. Theres still a loophole in the system anyway, Google only allows links in validation not specified links.

That's making it biased then. That defeats the whole object of a survey if your manipulating which responses you choose to look at. In every survey, wether it is your university research, a survey in your local area for a certain project,... there is a phase for data cleaning in which you filter out invalid data that doesn't meet a predetermined set of criteria. In our case that is proving that you are a registerd TruckersMP user so that we can filter out entries from random internet trolls that have nothing to do with TruckersMP. (And at the time I write this over 400 other users don't seem to have an issue with it) And this is all I will say about this particular subject as I don't want to keep talking in a useless, endless discussion. 1 Regards Prime Service & Data Analyst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could talk to a brick wall and that might listen better. The point is that your asking people to link themselves to to something their saying about TMP. Automatically people are suspicious when you ask for this as they wonder if it will effect them in the future. It is manipulating if your deleting what could be potentially useful data to you. Your picking and choosing what you want to see based on if someone wants to link themselves to it or not. That's full on biased. Your going to use it to improve? I'll see that when I believe it. Maybe you should look at all the previous information you already have. feedback tickets, all the suggestion posts, the highers Q&A. You have plenty of things to be looking at feedback wise. This to me feels just a front to people to pretend you're interested in how the TMP community feels.

EHHVTC Founder l Gamer5 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Personally, i believe the Survey was a good idea. It allows fast a and easy way for them to collect data they require. It is better than the long winded feedback system for this kind of data collection. (I made a few points about contacting Upper Staff via the feedback system, hopefully this will be seen and taken note of) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the argument of talking to a brick wall goes both ways.. It is not manipulating if that data is infact not use-able for us, since it doesn't meet the requirements of our survey. However, since it's turning into an endless carousel I will stop responding now.

Smalley Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Honestly, I don't understand why there is an argument in this post. TMP are asking for feedback from you as players. Here's your opportunity so why are you complaining? Stop acting so childish and be happy. In my opinion this is a good idea as it will give our players a chance to give their view upon TruckersMP and what route they want to take to make TMP better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sit down and shut up is what I'm being told to do here. The data is perfectly usable. Whether it has a TMP profile in it or not you could still get the same responses and use the same data. There is no real legitimate reason to use TMP profiles. Anyone could use one of the over 2 million accounts. I could make several posts using different accounts. So having a TMP profile link for "verification" is a load of rubbish. 1 1 || || Currently: || || Former: || || || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoSpot Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 @DJ Jefferz I think the best thing for you to do is quit while you think you're ahead. You know I conduct the TruckersMP survey towards the end of each year to find out who the communities favorites are, this too goes through a stage of data cleansing to filter out rogue information. It's just how surveys work. I know you think you mean well, but (and im being honest here) how truckersmp decide to carry out a survey has nothing to do with you since your not on the team anymore. The decision to use verification of the TMP profile means the team can verify that the users who have answered are current users, registered with the community, at no point did I read that this is an anonymous survey. | SCS Beta Tester | Haulage 64 Founder | Game Rules | Report a Player | Submit a Ticket | Ask for Help Ex-Support Staff TMP !!

Whether it was intentional or not, allowing someone to be identified by a survey instantly makes it biased no matter how hard the person tries to be neutral. When you know who has answered, your own preconceptions are then applied to that survey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So GG you start by backseat moderating. Data cleansing is fine. but the data cleansing of this survey is just biased and manipulated. Deleting a survey based on the fact they wern't willing to identify themselves is like pointing a gun at someones head and forcing them to say "TMP is the greatest community ever." I've covered several issues here but none of the staff want to listen. I've raised about the answers not covering fully and about how the TMP link is forcing us to identify ourselves and link us to the comments we make. This alone will not allow people to truly speak openly. But the staff decided to argue the points and make it up as they went along. || || Currently: || || Former: || || || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konfig0 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Question: Would you like a completely filtered outcome with accurate results. Or: An unfiltered anonymous survey which may have been answered multiple times by the same person, which does not give us an accurate image of what people want (which if we then start doing things, people will complain about because it is not what they entered in the survey!) Seems like whatever turn you take, it's never the correct one. edit: @TomW88 thank you for your feedback! 1 I wonder if you look both ways when you cross my mind..
