As a player who is more than a year on Newfoundland and got to end level I am sad that I can not participate in your survey :(
"Thank you for participating in this study.
Unfortunately you are not eligible for this particular study.
However we appreciate that you took the time to participate.
We look forward to inviting you to a future study."
So this is my first bad point what you need to improve :( because I want to help TSO be better :)
Cheers :D

If you go through the forum link it works fine, just the main page does not work - http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/24794-Survey-TSO-Feedback-Questionnaire

That is the message I got as well:(
When I see the message saying you were interested in my opinions and could I please take a moment to do the survey for a moment I felt like BB wanted to listen.
I do not know if the survery is broken but I got to the page where it asked me what games I had played recenlty I only ticked "on a console" and "on a tablet" as I assumed it was common sense I played Settlers so did not need to tick "free to play online" which I thought meant other online games but it seems because I did not tick that box it gave me the message to say

I get the feeling BB just wanted my age/sex and location which I was able to enter..
Truely disapointed BB really let me down as I was looking forward to filling in the survery, reading other posts it seems others are in the same boat. Why am I not eligible?
so annoyed :mad:

maybe the people on here did same thing
I found the lack of a back button to correct an answer very irritating
Lulu that was the post I was referring to. Thanks for posting the link :)
And yes Jim what survey does not have a back button!
TSO Survey feedback threads merged
Peck_ed the reason I did not post in here is because I get the feeling no one from BB will take the slightest bit of notice of it with the titlte TSO Survey
That is why I made a title with an eye catching line.

Surely starting a new thread each time you want something read makes it harder for BB to read because there are a million threads to follow?
Same topic, both complaints about the same thing, makes sense to merge these

exactly my case :mad:
I started the survey and got 40% in, I wasn't asked any questions about TSO, I was asked about my gaming habits and how much I spend. Despite selecting the "I live in the UK" option all monetary answers were requested in Euros. I have never, nor will I unless the UK adopts the Euro as its currency, spend a single euro on a game. I gave up at this point, I fail to see asking how much time/money in a foreign currency I spend playing on games consoles has to do with improving TSO.
Completely misleading and badly designed survey. Bit like TSO events.

I would like to know if this happens in half of survey that you dont get the chance to reach finish, how much of quality opinions will BB get from players. I think not much :(
i did the full survey and dang what a joke... i know i checked that im not allowed to tell what it says but come on BB why do u need to know how much time i use on facebook?
i wanted to do the survey to give u some feedback on TSO and that was almost the only thing i wasnt asked to tell u about.
and the lack of options to really tell what we think of the game and how we feel it could be better was just breath taking.... but i got a nice 5 page with check box "i like" "i like a little less" "i dont care" and "i dislike somewhat" "and i really hate" then a thanks and [ go away ] kinda ending
Please be careful with terms used,

Yep, I'm exactly the same, gave up when I saw that all what they have asked is personal information and money related issues. Its not seems like improving TSO survey at all.
Edit: After talking with a friend that completed this survey I'm feeling deceived from a sentence like 'give us feedback on how the game is going and what we can improve on'. This survey is NOT about that.
The things that BB really needs to know are already here, in our Bugs and Suggestions threads. I completed the whole survey. The first thing that put my nose out of joint was no "Australia" in the options. However I kept going. Even if you finished the survey guys, it was more about how you "feel" towards the game than specific game mechanics or game issues. I would have really liked to say that at level 42, there is nothing immediately to look forward to or achieve. No point to make titanium smelter or anything else. Everything gets suddenly exponentially more expensive to do. There was no opportunity to give suggestions. A waste of my time and BB's too.
Yeah, I have to agree with previous posters when they say this survey isn't really about TSO at all, but about your gaming habits and how much money they think they might be able to screw out of you for their 'F2P' game.
BB asked how satisfied I was with various aspects of the game but gave me no opportunity to expand upon or explain my answers, like why I'm really unsatisfied with the support system. I don't care about the sound and music, I want a game that's relatively bug free (at least an end to the flippin' quest bugs which have already been fixed on test), one where I don't have to click a million times to optimise a production chain (or have the optimisation so finely balanced that's it's nigh on impossible to achieve *coughs*ironandsteel*coughs*) and one that, for once, really is F2P. When I sat and thought about how much real life money has been spent on my game, it made me balk a little. Far more than I spend on subscription MMORPG's, and more than all my PC games added together - including all my Sims 3 guff!
I'm level 50 and I'm growing bored. I've asked my buff partner to stop buffing me. I'll log in every day to keep my bonuses activated but other than that....there's not much left to do. Except find a way to get rid of this sour taste in my mouth left at the thought of all the money that's been sunk into my game for nothing, which would have paid for the new laptop I desperately need twice over.

Looking down the general part of the forum just on the first page alone I can see 3 threads about voucher codes which are not merged.... So its only complaints that are merged to make it look like there really is not a lot, great logic.
As to not go off topic... regarding the survery it sounds like BB are not actually interested in what we think of the game at all it seems a plan to gather gamer personal habits so they can better make money out of us. Why does it matter how old I am or what country I am from? what has that got to do with how well I think you have fixed bugs and added new content.
Agree this is a marketing survey, nothing more. Most surveys pertaining to look for specific feedback rarely ask the questions they really need to be asking, rather they only give the option of answers they want to hear. I'm sure there are players who could write a far more revealing survey about this game and BB's current game management which would be far more useful ;)
"We are currently running a survey for our esteemed Settlers to give us feedback on how the game is going and what we can improve on"
Lies all lies :mad:
I would suggest we run a survey to find out what BB thinks of us, but we already know what the response to that would be.
Hereby declared THE MOST STUPID AND MOST ANNOYING AND MOST USELESS SURVEY OF ALL TIMES!!!
At least have the decency if indicating why we don't belong to the target group after wasting our time.
Unfortunately you are not eligible for this particular study.
:confused::confused::confused:
Survey is nothing to do with TSO. What I think happened.
A company who collects data asked TSO if they could post a survey to collect data about what ever it is they are collecting data about, and at the same time we have give that company all are contact details, and TSO look like they care about what we have to say.
or...
TSO have paid a company to do a survey, but not for anything useful, but rather to see how many people play/check website and are human and not bots.
Either way the survey had nothing to do with the game and was a waste of time.
Spent ten minutes completing the survey.
Clicked the last question ... and boom ...
Was told my survey was not of any use.
That will be the last time I waste my time in such a way.
