The only way to make a meaningful poll here would be if Neal picked a subset of Subsim members and all of them would fill out the questionaire (try surverymonkey, allows for a little more sophistication and evaluation). This way you get a meaningful cross-section of the subsim-members at least.

And not only of those subsim members who bought SHV and a favor it (more the once that are disappointed and already not here anymore/ less likely to vote negative etc). And that way you could also insert some "test" questions that ensure that the sampled person actually played the game (or sort him out later if the test questions are mostly not correctly answered).

It would be very interesting to see, though quite a bit of work to set up a proper questionaire. On the other hand, so far people don't seem to be happier or more disappointed with SHV then they were with SHIV. Just that there appears to be a large number of people that won't buy into it until the DRM is removed, and/or several patches/ larger modders have be published. So I guess it will be a couple of months until such a questionaire really will make sense. And then we already will get the answer from UBI corporate -- called the quarterly sales report...
