Message-ID: <1912@nsc.UUCP> Date: Thu, 29-Nov-84 00:57:56 EST Article-I.D.: nsc.1912 Posted: Thu Nov 29 00:57:56 1984 Date-Received: Fri, 30-Nov-84 02:33:35 EST Sender: chuqui@nsc.UUCP Organization: (Mod.singles headquarters) Lines: 85 Approved: chuqui@nsc.UUCP - - - mod.singles- - - - - - Volume 1, Issue 23 - - - Since taking over as moderator of mod.singles, I find myself attempting to answer mail from various people about mod.singles and net.singles. A lot of this mail questions like 'What is the average age of the readers of net.singles?' and while I make an educated guess at many of them, a lot of the time I'm simply not sure. So, without further ado, we have the first Usenet Reader Survey for mod.singles and net.singles This questionaire contains questions designed to find out as much as possible about the people that read these groups. I have attempted to stay away from patently embarrassing or personal questions-- that isn't the purpose of this. Do not feel obligated to answer any question you feel uncomfortable with, but please answer as many as you can as honestly as you can. When the results are in and tabulated, I will post a summary. This may include excerpts of comments you might make. If you wish anonymity, please let me know and I'll be the only person who sees your name (or account). I hope this survey can serve two purposes-- first, it should give us an idea of who is really out there; second, as the moderated groups get used more frequently it will hopefully give me a better idea of how to moderate the group. Please MAIL your responses to ...!nsc!chuqui. Do NOT post them-- I will not be adding any posted material to my results. chuq ------- 1) What is your name?
