Survey Changes, Records & Ratings
Greetings Members!

We've dramatically improved the management of survey forms and added
a new field type. This mail also includes a quick note with a new login
record and rating average update.

:: Easier Survey Management Now In Place ::

Surveys now have a new management area with navigation similar to the Group
and cNote management areas. This convenient new section easily allows you
to reorder, delete and edit individual fields from within a survey.

Now when you create a survey, the setup form does not provide space for the
inclusion of questions; those are added in from the survey's management
area afterward. This makes the creation of survey forms much quicker and
more browser friendly.

:: Dropdown Menu Field ::

Survey forms may now include Dropdown Menu's for multiple choice questions.
Using the new survey management system, you can update existing surveys
and easily convert fields from multiple choice to the dropdown field option.

The creation and ownership of survey forms is reserved for members with
Upgraded or Premium Membership.

:: A New Record & Rating Update... ::

I wanted to take a moment to share a new record that Stories.Com recently
reached. On November 6th, 3,581 members logged into our site, breaking
an older record from a few weeks prior. We're extremely happy to see so
many members being more active on Stories.Com!

Also, since we first asked members to reevaluate the way they personally
use the Stories.Com star rating system, you've made dramatic improvements
in the average ratings being given out. On September 30th, the average
rating given out that day was 4.71 stars; on November 10th, members rated
items with an average of 4.19 stars for the day, a first on Stories.Com!
These more varied star ratings are providing our members with more accurate
feedback, either giving them room to improve or rewarding them for a
completed item.

As a side effect, we've noticed members have also begun to include more
thorough reviews combining honest advice, encouraging words and helpful
tips. In addition, some of our members are now using the Unrateable item
type to exclude the stars and receive only comments on their work.

We've received excellent feedback about these changes from writers of all
skill and interest levels. We understand not all of our members will attempt
to reevaluate or adjust their rating decisions, but we value your time and
thank you all for listening to us. Please know that the authors of Stories.Com
sincerely appreciate your consideration in this important effort.
