Default Re: Fleet Experience Poll

This is a simple poll intended for the ones who suffered a +20 experienced fleet loss. That is the long and the short of it.

So for the ones who have suffered an accidental loss of a +20 experience fleet, you either dislike it, are neutral or like it.

Strictly speaking, if you have never experienced a 20+ fleet loss, you cannot say how you felt about it.
Then your poll is inherentlybiased, as it does not encompass the full range of possible experiences WRT the subject matter at hand.

Yes, a simple "I've never lost one, so I don't feel either way" response WOULD have balanced the poll far better.

Basically it renders your results invalid WRT wetehr or not a fix is needed, or even appropriate. What if, for example, 90% of respondants were to choose "I'm careful enough I never do this in the first place" ... ??

Then, the obvious conclusion would be, it's not a problem.

...

I won't even go INTO how biased the questions themselves were, in form AND wording ...
