Firstly I would like to thank Saronsen and others for their comments in the thread 'Is Discovery dying?' posted earlier today which has spurred the creation of this survey.
For those of you who haven't been clued in, put concisely, the proposition I put forward in the following post was that an attempt should be made to land some hard evidence as to how and why players are drawn to discovery. The resulting data should make it easier for us as a community to realise a means of attracting new players.
This poll may well be the first in a series of posts in attempts to gather data on the matter, so please do participate if you notice any further questions despite any similarities.
I am starting this survey with the assumption that the rate of incoming new players has decreased as opposed to the rate of players leaving the server increasing. This poll is also being made without assumptions that discovery's net income of players is in the red due to lack of interest, advertisment, accessibility or otherwise. It's all in the hypothetical stage at present so I ask kindly that you keep any sceptical comments you have in focus.
It is unknown yet as to how long it will take to draw up a conclusion so please do bear with until a clear and reliable set of results can be established.
Your participation would be greatly appreciated.
