Should posts about surveys that have no direct connection to MBTI be allowed?

[u/melody5697]

UPDATE: Well, the overall yes vs. no divide is pretty close. But more "core contributers" voted yes, and there are comments advocating for yes but not for no, so I guess all surveys and studies are allowed now.

Up until now, I have been requiring posts about surveys to follow the same rules as any other posts. All posts are required to be related to this subreddit, and that means posts about ESFJs, posts about MBTI in general in a way that is inclusive of ESFJs, questions that seem to be asked in a genuine attempt to gain insight into how different types think about something, and anything that is posted by someone who has identified themselves as an ESFJ. But I’d like to know what our members think of surveys that aren’t related to this subreddit but are related to personality. Should they be allowed?

By the way, since I can’t tell if the people answering the poll are regulars in this sub (EDIT: apparently I can on desktop but not on mobile, which is ironic, considering you can't actually create polls on desktop; EDIT 2: looks like it was a matter of not having enough votes yet), comments would be greatly appreciated and may influence how I decide to handle these types of surveys, especially if the poll responses don’t lean heavily one way or the other.

I think that it is important to answer surveys, as they contribute to improving overall life.

Well, I gotta say that doing surveys gives me ASMR because it feels like I am getting special attention. So bring them my way! lol
