We are so greatfull for those who resteem our last blog
@arthuradammson @nigelmarkdias @araki @mendezand @tincho
you can take a look at @nigelmarkdias survey about flagging Steemit survey
We also want to thank @rossenpavlov @j3dy for their concern and for suggesting for us http://steempoll.net/ great tool by @goodkarma. we decide to use it in surveys need long time and we will continue survey by blogging with direct voting in a comment which we think makes survey (short) more interactive.
Nice presentation, but it tells no story. The total sample size of 24 persons doesn't guide to a representative statistical result. You can*t take this as a serious result. It is not even a hint. My suggestion for the next survey is to fiddle out first, how to get a representative sample.
Totally agree @afrog, not adequate sample, statistically insignificant. That is why we need help to reach a good sample size that can represent steemit community, it will take some effort. This result is just an example of how an open survey can help steemit.
It is also an example how often people in Steemit are really reading postings. Even when you ask questions in everyone's interest, no one has time to notice that you are asking. It is the very sad reality of a nearly one year old story of bot–curating. A lot of great words are spoken right now, but I am still curating in front of a wall of pure bot–ignorance. Don't waste your time, dear @steemit-survey. Before starting a survey, think about how to reach the brains behind their bot-shields.
Thank you for your concern @afrog, we will try to reach as many people as we can, a sample about 5% to 10% of active user is representative and can reflect community opinion nicely, we think that can be reached with some work, thanks again.
resteem my friend! Good luck with the project!
Thank you so much @tincho, appreciate it
Thanks for the transfer, but it's not necessary. Use it to continue enlarging the project! I found it very interesting!!
Sorry for my English, it's not my original language.
We will continue to distribute some of the reward. Survey can succeed only by people and some rewards should be given to them. Thank you for your support @tincho, your English is fine.
haha its not fine but thanks!
I hope this all works out like expecting for everyone involved in this project. To be honest im still quite confused on the whole thing. Huge ups to you my friend
Thank you @soundlegion, we hope by Steemit Survey thing can be more clear. What community want? and what they think about debatable points?
onward my friend and best to you all in these things. I hope very much to see the platform succeed. :)

Thank you @lola-carola, looking forward to see you in next survey.
Hi @steemit-survey
Thank you for sharing.
I wonder if somebody can research what the affect of the experiment was. I know it will be difficult as content various greatly in posts. I however have a daily scripture, that is very stable on the amount of votes I receive, and to me the value of the pay-out went up from around $0.50 to around $1.50, which is a substantial increase.
I also see an increase on my curation rewards. This seems to be a good thing.
