One thing I have found to be a quintessential evil is Surveys. At first, I thought them fun, and funny. Even only 8y old, I knew and understood the purpose of Surveys. Does not mean I like them anymore. They were fun figuring out how to fuck them as a child. I even did this on those IQ Tests given in school. Now as an adult, I despise them with a loathsome passion. Why? Not only are they asking the most incorrect questions, they ask those questions incorrectly. Useless.
Excepting the true psychological assessment tests, Surveys are basically worthless.
Raid: Shadow Legends just recently sent me a survey. The first question was how many OTHER gaming franchises I have heard of, and gave a list of about 20 or so franchises. I know what Raid wants: They want to know how many Raiders also play these other games. And my question is: How can I NOT have heard about those listed franchises? They are all so heavily adverted throught out the entirety of the WWW. I cannot open me home page in me WWW browser without AT LEAST one advertisment of one of those franchises listed. It is exactly like that Religitard question: Have you heard about my God-Thing? In today’s world, how can anyone NOT have heard about any of those God-Things?
Thus, the main reason I despise Surveys with a loathesome passion is they serve absolutely NO purpose, just like religion. All they want is to capitalize on your stupidity. Stupidity, meaning “lack of knowledge”. You may be intellectual, you just ain’t using it.
Besides, any person whom has played Raid as long as I have, about 5 years (Addenda: Actually 6 years.), has also heard of all those franchises listed in that survey. In answer to that first question, I chose: “None of the above”. Then the survey choked and died. Could go no further without just closing. Guess I chose the one answer they did not want anyone to choose.
Fact Check: Raid launched on 28 February 2019. Thus it has been six years I have been playing Raid in one account or another. I started my Raiding about two or three months after Raid launched. Six years. And I am by no means an expert. Experts are those whom have spent thousands of $ in the P2W method. I am about 98% F2P. P2W = Play to Win; F2P = Free to Play.
Live Arena was a complete fiasco. The P2W people just walk all over the F2P people. Need to create/invent a better sorting system for Live Arena. Two categories: P2W and F2P. The biggest problem with Live Arena is that it does not sort Players on the P2W and F2P categories. I got damned lucky, and I mean DAMNED lucky my first Live Arena fight. I won. Afterwards, I pull people with heores that total a MINIMUM of 5× the power I can bring forth. It is like Tag Arena. I rarely pull persons I even have the slightest chance of defeating. Most often in the Tag Arena, I always pull persons with teams that have a total power 3, 4, 5, 6, even 12 times the power I can bring forth. Once, the LOWEST opponent power I pulled was still 4! times my power. With Live Arena, I shall go up against the P2W people with no regard of my actual Power Level as a Player. That SUCKS!
Basically, I have been playing Raid since before all this new shut was added. When I started, there was only the campaign, dungeons (w/o the sand devil and phantom and limited time dungeon, and the Demon Lord. Nothing else. I loved when they added CvC with the rewards one can get by only contributing 1000 points. I would raise that to 5000. One thousand is too easy for the sandbaggers. Sandbaggers are those whom have multiple accounts, basically using both to hit in Clan-Things. Sometimes they hop around through many Clans.
The biggest problem with these Clanhoppers is that they take Clan Positions away from those whom may actually perform For The Clan. IOW, us Clan Members whom actually do perform For The Clan are actually penalized by these Clanhoppers by them NOT doing anything for CvC (Clan versus Clan) rallies. Not to mention holding a Clan back during the Sieges.
Me? I am now down to one account. I lost me phone while trikking through the woods. Ain’t no way in 7734 I shall find that phone again. Thus, I lost a 2× account thing to help me Clan. Now I need tell them to “Boot” that account. DAMNIT! That account had some potential. However, even if get a new phone, I AIN’T GOING TO START A NEW ACCOUNT AND BUILD AGAIN. No thank you. I shall keep the PC account. My PC account has so god-damned much “garbage cleanup”, it takes me two hours. Then again, I am also working on my Dismantling Religion WWW site: dismantlingreligion.info. I call it an “info” site because I ain’t trying to capitalize on anyone’s “lack of knowledge”.
Why? The Information Age hit us dumb-arsed animals like a run-a-way freight train. Now we MUST begin Rationality Education. First through Twelve Grades in the American Public Education System (APES). This is REQUIRED education! 7734, when I was in the APES, geography was a REQUIRED subject or learning. And I still cannot help but be completely dismayed by that one news program. It was a sort of “Town Hall” meeting kind of thing. A Junior in High School was asked to go to the world map and find Nebraska.
Just make a few guesses at where in the world that student first began looking for Nebraska. I shall wait. … … He began looking in the region of where Vietnam is located. <:-O
For Nebraska? T…H…I…N…K…
Damn. I can rant…
Technically, they always ask specifically, “Do you beLIEve in God?” However, ultimately, the question is actually, “Do you beLIEve in MY God-Thing?” The most loaded question ever invented by any Religitard because THAT question is already loaded with the ammo of “You HAD better beLIEve or MY God-Thing commands and demands your death.”.
It is with unnecessary questions like that, that actually makes Religitards dangerous and unsafe to be around. Why? Because any question from a Religitard about their God-Things is a “life-or-death” question. It is literally a loaded gun, hammer cocked, finger on trigger.
How? Because the questions about their God-Things is actually best worded as thus:
Do you beLIEve in my God-Thing? Because if you do not beLIEve, my God-Thing commands and demands your death.
That is the ultimate meaning of the Religitard question: Do you beLIEve?
Surveys are so filled with “loaded questions”. Additionally, they will not allow you to answer as you wish. Very few survey questions are NOT mutli-choice answers. My answers are NEVER listed. So what good is that survey? And those phasic surveys (ranging from Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree) are just as bad. My feelings have nothing to do with my answers. And, yes, ultimately I may hit the phasic spectrum from strong agreement to strong disagreement.
Just quit with those damned surveys and polls. Polls are actually more interesting than surveys. But, both are useless. Why? Because how you analyze the answers may not be in agreement with how I may analyze. This is why I never trust these 4-out-of-5 and NN%-chose-this survey results. How true “Truth” is derived, is an anathema to religion. Religion cannot derive truth except for that which they can override your emotions through beguiling semantics and prestidigitative dialog in order to force YOUR emotions to override YOUR intellect. And you call me the dummy.
Here is a good example of a loaded question: What is your favorite color?
Me Answer: ALL of them. Even no color (black) is a color.
My favorite color is any color that is within my visual capabilities. And I love those psych tests that ask this question. Then there is the Survey Assessment of Learning Style: [have to find URL]. My problem with this test is that not one of the questions has my True Answer to each. I learn from EVERY possible style: visual, audio, gustatory, olfactory, tactility, haptic, and others of our 17 (21) senses. Yes, the human body has 17 known, and 4 more possible senses in total. And you RPGers thought Elves were so special…
My Learning Style is what may be categorized as Unlimited, meaning I learn from any and all possible styles of learning. Then again, as the doctor told me after asking about his test: “You are probably that exceptionally rare specimen. If you do not know already, I would say you are an outlier. One of those data points that gets ignored, or tossed out, so as not to screw the curve.” And he nailed it on the head. I am a rare specimen of human. However, there are many like me. It took me decades before I knew that fact. I just could never understand how people could not grasp some topics and concepts that were automatic for me. Not until me 20s did I discover this fact. Basically, I was born a scientist with the correct brain wiring to be a scientist.
My prefrontal cortex was already active and wired. That is also my hypothesis for those children with 200 IQs. They are just born to be a scientist with critical thinking, rationality, reasoning, logic, deduction. Those children, as me self, were born with a hard-wired and activated prefrontal cortex. Prove me wrong.
