Perhaps this should be nudged now and then, in order to bring the survey's site to people's attention in case this site's administration does not advertise its presence to all membership of this site.

Brought forward because it is important, in my opinion.

I'm going to put up messages, with the link, on all boards, right now because I also think it important that everyone on here knows about this.

GR invited its members to apply to participate in market research due to take place in London; also, I believe that members were invited to contact the market research company through its given email address.

After I sent an email stating "My opinion is that it would be more useful if the questions that would be asked in the research were sent to each paid and unpaid member. Otherwise, I really do not think that there will be a balanced result. The site has members worldwide; therefore it would, I feel, be unfair to solely concentrate on members based in or near the capital of England.", I received a reply from GR, part of which stated "We are also going to be conducting an online survey though that you'll be able to take part in." I have not yet seen the online survey on GR. However, I understand that it is advertised on facebook.

In the event that GR does not advertise it through GR, I think it is important that we give constructive criticism – the site is given on GR’s page on facebook:
"For all those who could not take part in the research study sessions taking place in London, we have created an online survey. Participate in the survey here http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/WEB22AXVZ2AAJ7"

Brought forward :-)

Thanks Joy

I'll nudge this thread up on this cold and miserable Thursday morning here in OZ.

Still no sign of GR opening the 'survey' to its membership by posting a link on the message boards.

Only the vigilance of some of our fellow members has allowed us to be aware of the survey's existence.

GR should be ashamed of themselves...............not that they will be, of course.

I have sent an email to Genes Reunited Support asking if they know yet when the survey will be brought to members' attention in Genes Reunited.

keep on emailing GR to ask why they're not doing the survey on here, and why they are not notifying members



and DO THE SURVEY!

WOW


success for the members of GR


fill in that survey!!!!!!

And posted by GR on the chat board with a sticky, albeit the first line before one opens it is about something else :-)
("Has your family history taken you on an exciti...")

wonder why they haven't posted the survey on Records, Tips, TTF and History?

http://www.genesreunited.co.za/boards.asp?wci=thread&tk=1230142
is now invalid thread

that's the one that was on General

Have sent this email:-



General board Genes' sticky has disappeared

I thought you would want to know that the Genes' sticky about the survey has disappeared from the general board
ie
"For all of those who could not take part in the research study sessions taking place in London, we have created an online survey. Participate in the survey by copying and pasting this link into your browser address bar. http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/WEB22AXVZ2AAJ7
To all of those who have already taken the time to complete the survey, we would like to thank you for your time and opinions"


It is still on the chat board but looks as if it is about something different - "Has your family history taken you on an exciti..." until it is opened.

I look forward to the survey thread being reinstated on the general board. I feel it is important that you receive constructive criticism. Thank you.
