I don't often check the email DU has on file very often. Sometime after I joined DU it became a spam magnet . . . so I only check it occasionally - or when I am expecting email at that address.

Q) Are you a member of Democratic Underground?

A) Well, DUH!

Q) Do you like being a member?

A) Beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

Q) How would you qualify your experience as a member?

A) See # 2 above.

Q) Does being a member satisfy your needs to talk with complete strangers from across the globe, get into inane arguments with them over banal subjects so that you start to question your sanity?

A) In spades.

Q) How would you rate the owners/administrators of Democratic Underground?

A) Well, they don't seem to smell too badly.

Q) Of all the prolific posters on DU, who annoys you the most?

A) Me. But I'm not that prolific. Horrific, perhaps.

Q) What improvements to DU would you most like to see?

A). Free pizza Tuesdays. And fix the fucking coffee maker, already.


Q). Thank you for participating in this survey.

A). Your mother was a hamster and your father resembles the naughty bits of a camel.

I delete around a 100 emails daily so will watch for this.

And thank you!

Do you mean DU email or non-DU email?

That's one of the reasons I wanted to post a brief announcement about it, since it's the first time we've tried something like this.

After reading the comments I wasn't sure which. Guess I'll have to check my email!

it's only now that I've gotten angry enough to post!

1. A message in my DU inbox?
Or
2. An actual email to the email address I signed up with?

I'm hoping the answer is 1, because the email account I used when I signed up is so spam-infested that I've all but given up on it. I'm afraid that any message sent there could get lost in the spamalanche very easily.

like the current format , using skinner mode . am noting some minor issues like their will be a brief flash of a page and so on. otherwise please keep it up. du , benn here since the shrub v gore mes .

looking out for it. Hopefully, it will not come to my junk mail.

A real survey, intended to discern real people's opinions about a particular thing. It will probably even have some open-ended questions, and will not be simply a fundraising attempt in disguise.

Normally I delete surveys - and the previous paragraph give enough clues to determine why. But I will probably take this one.

that's exactly the kind of email I routinely dismiss as "suspicious"

It came via regular email with the sender being EarlG from Democratic Underground.

Very good survey.

... I didn't feel like it might be a scammer.
