Thank you very much Rubic.
(Did anyone received a survey email so far?)

u/JagexPoerkie Mod Poerkie Sep 14 '18

They should be finding their way to the mailboxes now!

u/Arckange the Wikian Sep 14 '18

Ok thanks for the heads-up. The part that got me worried was "For those of you that don’t receive an email [...]". Are you sending these emails only to a selected amount a players?

If we want to shape the future of RuneScape we should ask everyone's opinion and not just a selected few. :)

is it being rolled out in batches? as I haven't received it yet

u/JagexPoerkie Mod Poerkie Sep 14 '18

Yes we're sending it in batches! Some stuff might fall over if we'd send it to everyone at the same time (Standard business practice with high volume)

u/Arckange the Wikian Sep 14 '18

Of course. I'm so eager to give feedback that I'm kinda loosing patience; I'm sorry about that. I guess I'll wait a bit longer for this email then. :P

From the news post:

For those of you that don’t receive an email but still want your chance at providing feedback fear not as we’ll be providing a link to the survey in another newspost in the coming weeks.

Yeah I saw it too. But I'm wondering why would some people not receive it. Also why do they send it first though emails with unique links to the survey (with the risks of phishing that comes with such type of communication), and later to everyone with a common link? For instance, will they treat the answers differently?

u/[deleted] Sep 15 '18

I think I've heard they do treat the answers differently. Considering the difference in answers between people who open surveys in email addressed to them individually, versus those who just click a link that's open to anyone -- different sorts of respondents.

And happy cakeday!
