The NAC User Satisfaction Survey 2011 (Round 1)
#1
Hey guys!

So a few months have passed since the Neo Ark Cradle's birth, and we figured it would be time to gauge the memberbase's opinion on the direction of things so far! It would help us learn where is the site doing well and where it is lacking, and thus make things better for both the memberbase and the staff.

Here's what you need to do and what happens afterwards. Fill the following survey and PM it to me (Arynis). We will analyse the results in the staff forum and get back to the memberbase with our conclusions and tell you what will be done and what we thought about this or that. We may ask some more questions in the second round, based on and depending on what we got in the first round. For example, we may ask you in what areas you want the site to be improved, and we will ask you about some specific features in the second round. That way, things can be kept realistic and not too open-ended, while knowing in what areas you can expect changes in the future.

I'd prefer people to be honest; we do not forbid criticism, but we require polite and civil answers. We will not punish anyone for their opinion, unless it goes against the spirit of feedback or is actively harassing the staff or anyone else.

Lastly, we are planning to do this survey every year, at the end of each year.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask in the thread or PM me about it.

The survey will be open until January 28. After that, we won't be accepting any more feedback and will analyse the results.

And with that, on to the survey!

Note: A main site (and possibly a wiki) is being planned. If you want to make any suggestions or input regarding that, please answer the respective questions.

DO we have a screen shots/images/scans request section here somewhere ?

I think a lot of ppl would be interested in a place where they can show off their gifs.
Or give requests for specific scenes for a gif.

Also place to show self made banners and images for signatures and avatars and such.

Also a place to show images and screen shots from games and such.

DARK MASTER Wrote:DO we have a screen shots/images/scans request section here somewhere ?

We do not. I think you could drop something like that in the General Area or the Art Section.

DARK MASTER Wrote:I think a lot of ppl would be interested in a place where they can show off their gifs.
Or give requests for specific scenes for a gif.

We do not have a place for that either, though in terms of wanting to show off gifs we have an art section.

DARK MASTER Wrote:Also place to show self made banners and images for signatures and avatars and such.

No, but we have an Art Section, you could make a Thread in there if you wanted.

DARK MASTER Wrote:Also a place to show images and screen shots from games and such.

Not at current, but we have a Media Section with a Sub-Section for Games...you could make a thread in there if you wanted.
#4
Regarding requests, no, we don't have a thread or place for that yet. However, seeing how the Merged Images thread is in the Projects section and is open to requests, I'd say it would be fine to open an image requests thread in that section as well. Though, that doesn't include non-YGO pictures since the Projects section is a YGO related section. Hmm...

Apart from that, we have the Artwork forum for image/art related topics.
If you need to get in touch with me, please seek me out in the NAC Discord.

#5
Of course 1 thread for screen shots request for 1 series is enough. I was just asking for there correct places if there are such.

1. Do you want more forum sections? If yes, what kind?

Nope

The answer is No and Yes

I think he means the feature that let you edit your post in the same page without having to open the full edit page when you click that "Edit" button.

Like Arynis said, regarding threads for members to post and request for screenshots, I also see no problems with opening such threads in the Projects area, because as mentioned, the Merged images thread is there. It's also safe to assume you can post screenshots from the games there, as the forum description for the Projects does mention them. Actually, speaking of the forum descriptions, it probably needs to be updated, as it mentions box scans, when there's another section of the forum for those now...

Regarding things of the graphics nature (avatars, banners, gifs), those would go to the Artwork section.
We can simply have a showcase and request thread for them. At the moment, there doesn't seem to be a lot of graphic art, but if it grows in the future, we would consider adding a subforum for them.
Arynis Wrote:Though, that doesn't include non-YGO pictures since the Projects section is a YGO related section. Hmm...
We can have such a thread in the general anime/manga section, if people want it.

YYugi Wrote:I think he means the feature that let you edit your post in the same page without having to open the full edit page when you click that "Edit" button.
That's also what I assume as well.
At the moment, that seems to be the way phpbb works. We'll check if there's an add on that could fix/change that though.

1. Do you want more forum sections? If yes, what kind?
Maybe something to discuss current events of the world... I dunno.

2. Do you want any regular features? (e.g., podcasts) If yes, what kind?
Not neccesary

3. What feature seems the most attractive to you for the main site?
a. articles, theories and analyses
b. news
c. information
d. other (please elaborate)
Definitely articles, theories and analyses. We do get both news and infromation on forum, although those would probably also have to appear on site.

4. Would you like if the site had a wiki? What would be the most attractive about it?
a. articles, theories and analyses
b. information
c. interactivity (i.e., being able to edit and add information)
d. other (please elaborate)
I would ask how said wiki would look like. But should it be like wikias, I would say information and interactivity would be most important. Theories don't really fit. And of course interactivity would need some limitations, to prevent "destruction" of articles/info/other thing put there.

5. Which section of the forum do you visit the most?
ZeXal anime. And card game.

6. Which section of the forum do you visit the least?
Off topic.

7. Do you use IRC?
No.

8. Do you play on the Duel Network?
No. I have an account, but I never can find time to actually go there to play.

9. Do you find the forum easy to use? If not, what difficulties are you experiencing?
Yes, I find it easy to use.

10. Are you satisfied with the loading times? Do you get errors frequently? If so, what error(s)?
Yes, I'm satisfied, and I get errors rarely, 502 I believe. But I would need to wait until it happens again to check.

11. Are you satisfied with the forum design? If not, what do you think should be implemented or improved?
Yes, I am satisfied.

12. What is your opinion of the forum staff? Are you satisfied with their work?
Yes, I am satisfied.

13. Do you feel the staff respond to your issues quickly?
The only issue, although I'm not sure if it would qualify, is name change, and it took maybe 15 minutes. So definitely quickly.

14. Have you had any issues with any staff member(s)? If so, what they were?
No.

15. What do you like the most about the site and the community?
Ease of use, people posting here, possibility to say your opinion and not be killed for it.

16. What do you dislike the most about the site and the community?
Automatic log out when writing very long post would be the only thing I can think about.

17. Anything else you'd like to add?
Keep on the good work!

I kinda have a suggestion about the rules, back when the rules were first posted I remember reading something along the lines of posting images of under age characters and I think it needs to be broadened or simplified so new users can understand exactly what the rules mean especially when anime like tenchi muyo might get brought up or if a discussion comes up about a character that looks underage but their character bio says that their well over 100 years of age {ex: tenchi muyo's sasami}

I also think that if there is an image request topic made in the near future the person providing the images for the requester actually do some research on the series the image is coming from before just posting something that could possibly get everyone in trouble and to add to this I think a rating system should be in place for the image section kinda like how movies do it ex: section is TV14 or PG13 so no R or TVMA images what so ever

that's my 2 cents for right now
#13
I think for the sake of courts, which is the main concern, they're not going to care of Sasami is 10 or 100 years old. A lot of European Countries have very strict child pornography laws, and that includes child like characters from anime who thousands of year old, they care about how it looks, not how it is, and with a large number of European users, this becomes a "Strict No".

The second request has merit.

If you didn't have such strong ideas about where the story should go, you wouldn't end up so disappointed when the writers have other ideas.

well it goes to show how much I know about europe which now makes more sense as to why it was written that way

I was also kinda thinking about the podcast suggestion and exactly how that would work, would one person be doing the whole podcast ,what could they talk about besides what happened in the week's shows when card game news is low and would it be a weekly or monthly routine

starry Wrote:VIEW NEW POSTS

I used that a feature on a forum a bit. If it works the same way as I think. It will make our stay here ever more comfortable.
I think that option works... When you click on "View New Posts/Replys" or what ever butting there was it showed me only threads that have posts that were written after my latest posting.
Meaning only the threads with replies to/after my posts.
Not showing all the threads that have new posts after your last visit. Which would be meaningless of an option actually.
Not much experience using this thing <!-- sTongue --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/NAC_Smiley_Pack_Default/tongue1.gif" alt="Tongue" title="Tongue" /><!-- sTongue -->.

Exactly what I meant. I prefer not to open a new page/tab just for small edits on my writing.
When I edit my post I want to still be able to see the posts before and after mine. This helps my editing. Like it was in Janime. The current option does not offer that little convenience.

Nope.

Arynis Wrote:2. Do you want any regular features? (e.g., podcasts) If yes, what kind?

It would be interesting I will admit that but I kind of do not see the point. What would we talk about on things like a podcast that we don't already talk about here.

Arynis Wrote:3. What feature seems the most attractive to you for the main site?
a. articles, theories and analyses
b. news
c. information
d. other (please elaborate)

Information and News as that is why people come here. I would be interested in analytical articles and analysis being on there if they were voted to objectively good - we really do need to set up the Analysis Section of this forum in full.

They are very good. I feel and I am satisfied with their work.

I'm not good with these survey's. But so far I've got no complaints about the site. It's been pretty good around here. Still a little sad Janime ended up dieing, but glad this site has become a new haven for us fan's enjoyment.

I get no errors, loading time is good.
11. Are you satisfied with the forum design? If not, what do you think should be implemented or improved?
The forum design is neat, banner is perfect.

12. What is your opinion of the forum staff? Are you satisfied with their work?

This forum too, still seems to have a serious case from time-to-time visits of one certain spammer named alper/or whatever his name is...

17. Anything else you'd like to add?
Keep up the good work!
#21
1. Do you want more forum sections? If yes, what kind?
Nah, looks good as at it. But I would not be opposed to more if you made some.

2. Do you want any regular features? (e.g., podcasts) If yes, what kind?
Oh, podcasts would be cool. Unless they were just about the card game, then I wouldn't be interested. I think it'd be awesome if we had a thing where we all watched a stream of an episode, like on Livestream or something and members could comment on it.

3. What feature seems the most attractive to you for the main site?
a. articles, theories and analyses
b. news
c. information
d. other (please elaborate)

I would like D. All of the above, but if I could only have one, I'd pick information. But please please please, if you're going to post it in English, get a native speaker or someone who speaks the language fluently to look it over. I love Janime and I respect all that she did, but some of the weird grammar on the main page was a little difficult to decipher. I can't be the only one that noticed, and I'm assuming no one said anything out of politeness, but it stayed on there for years without ever being corrected. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but it would make things easier for everyone, ESLers included, to find what they're looking for.

4. Would you like if the site had a wiki?
Only if it were maintained regularly and checked for accuracy and consistency.

What would be the most attractive about it?
a. articles, theories and analyses
b. information
c. interactivity (i.e., being able to edit and add information)
d. other (please elaborate)

5. Which section of the forum do you visit the most?
I poke around all of them, really.

6. Which section of the forum do you visit the least?
Okay, except for the card game forums. I can't figure out this game to save my life.

7. Do you use IRC? No.
8. Do you play on the Duel Network? No.

9. Do you find the forum easy to use? Yes.
10. Are you satisfied with the loading times? Yes. Do you get errors frequently? No.
11. Are you satisfied with the forum design? It's functional without hurting my eyes, and that's all I really care about.

12. What is your opinion of the forum staff? Cool bros. Are you satisfied with their work? Everything's looking good so far.
13. Do you feel the staff respond to your issues quickly? Yes.
14. Have you had any issues with any staff member(s)? No.

15. What do you like the most about the site and the community? It's all the good parts of Janime.
16. What do you dislike the most about the site and the community? Nothing, really.

17. Anything else you'd like to add? I've heard some people complain about Zexal hate on here offsite. IDK if they're just being overly sensitive or if I've missed something or if they don't realize most of the comments here are just poking fun or what, but maybe y'all should look into that? *shrugs*

16. What do you dislike the most about the site and the community?
I have to pretend to be intelligent in discussions lol. And wall-of-text topic derails.

Slightly unrelated, but 100 posts makes it hard for uploaders without much to say to contribute to the files! I want to upload files, but the fact I have so little to say means I can't get to the 100 posts without spamming!

EDIT: Oh now I read that you PM the surveys. Might want to put that in bold next time.

I registered today, but I frequent the forums since months ago. No big thing, but if I can help making the forums even better, here I go.

1. Do you want more forum sections? If yes, what kind?
No, there are enough.

2. Do you want any regular features? (e.g., podcasts) If yes, what kind?
Podcasts sound good, if it wouldn't make the page lag or get slow.

3. What feature seems the most attractive to you for the main site?
b. news

4. Would you like if the site had a wiki? What would be the most attractive about it?
No, there is already a Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki, and we can post many of the stuff mentioned in the options here in the current forums.

5. Which section of the forum do you visit the most?
I don't have one in special, but I visit very much the ones about news.
6. Which section of the forum do you visit the least?
Most of them (sorry, I know this didn't help in anything).
7. Do you use IRC?

8. Do you play on the Duel Network?
Sometimes, when I get a very good idea for a Deck. Think I build more Decks than play, lol.

9. Do you find the forum easy to use? If not, what difficulties are you experiencing?
Yes, I'm new here, but it looks very simple to me.
10. Are you satisfied with the loading times? Do you get errors frequently? If so, what error(s)?
Until now, I didn't have any big error.
11. Are you satisfied with the forum design? If not, what do you think should be implemented or improved?
I don't care much to this, but it is nice. If it'd be changed, than I'd suggest making it more complex and futuristic (?).

12. What is your opinion of the forum staff? Are you satisfied with their work?
Yes, the few I saw about them was satisfactory. They are polite, active, and moderate well the forums.
13. Do you feel the staff respond to your issues quickly?
Sorry, never had a situation like that.
14. Have you had any issues with any staff member(s)? If so, what they were?
No. At least not yet.

15. What do you like the most about the site and the community?
The quality <!-- s:fyeah: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/NAC_Smiley_Pack_Default/fyeah.png" alt=":fyeah:" title="FUCK YEAH" /><!-- s:fyeah: -->.
16. What do you dislike the most about the site and the community?
Nothing in special. I'd just like to have the minimum-post-limit-to-access-the-download-forum lowered.

17. Anything else you'd like to add?
The forums are very good. If I had to suggest something, I think it'd be interesting to have an option where you can add your own smily, instead of having to upload the image and adding here suing the BBCode. You know, like in the Messenger. But I'm not sure if it exists her or not <!-- s:| --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/NAC_Smiley_Pack_Default/mellow.gif" alt=":|" title="Blank" /><!-- s:| -->. If yes, ignore this please.
Also, in the side of each member's name or whatever, it should say his/her rank in the forums (member, mod, admin...) and the posts should be numbered, so we can reefer to a post just by citing its number.

Hope I could help :X.

Now that I'm back and the deadline has passed, it will be time for us to process the surveys submitted. We'll try to address any issue or suggestion raised, and possibly publish the results statistic wise (i.e., like a poll result). We got a total of 22 surveys (including some of the staff members), and while this number may not seem too high, I'm nonetheless pleased with the amount. Thanks to everyone who filled the survey! Hopefully this will give all of us a more accurate image of the forum, its strengths and its flaws. I'm looking forward to the results we get from the surveys!

If anyone has any questions regarding the processing of the results or anything else, feel free to ask!
If you need to get in touch with me, please seek me out in the NAC Discord.

Just a heads up that I'll start working on the data and process the results. Since most of the data analysis is going to be an one man job, I can't really promise an ETA but I'll try to get this finished.

I'll get a staff member or two to help us give a stance on any specific questions that you may have raised in your surveys.

When the results are done and processed, I'll make a new thread for this. Again, sorry about the delay (especially with some of the problems we had and everything) and thanks for your patience!

Pretty much A,B and C
