I think sometimes...
« on: August 10, 2019, 11:30:23 am »
Some of the idiots who make these surveys and insert trick questions the person making the survey is stupid and does not know the answer themselves.

I have been asked how may gigabytes are in a terabyte several times.  I answer 1000 and then I get told sorry you do not qualify.  WHY?  My answer is correct.  I even googled it to make sure I was correct.   ::)

Ha! I always get DQd on that question too. I think next time I'll pick an incorrect answer and see what happens.

lol Let me know.  I started to say 1025.  I knew it was 1000 but thought maybe I am wrong so I googled to make sure it was just 1000.  And Google says 1000.  So maybe the question writer doesn't know the right answer. haha

Don't guess it can hurt to say the wrong thing since you are gonna get the boot any way huh.

I would not have known that answer.  that's funny.  I like the ones that ask where you live and give you a list of almost every know state and country and mine isn't on there.

I haven't had to answer any questions like that. That sounds absurd!
Opinion: 1) a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter 2) belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge
This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

Some of them they are looking for a specific state.  And that is the only way to ensure people do not lie just to qualify for the survey.  I done one once and the survey was about something specific to my state.  And the only answer that let you go forward was MY state. smh  That usually does not happen though.  Usually I get a big boot.

Shoot I got all the way through a survey the other day it thanked me for taking it and then it disqualified me I was so mad but there’s nothing you can do I wasted 15 minutes of my life taking that survey that I’ll never get back they could’ve at least paid me what they owed me. I guess I’ll just keep trying

Yeah I guess I am desperate cause I keep trying.  Some sites will go ahead and pay you and charge the people behind the survey.  More and more survey sites are saying if you complete the survey you WILL get paid.

I haven't seen that question but I don't like the questions where none of the choices is correct for your individual situation.  You have to pick something and then eventually you get disqualified

Tim, I done one earlier today and the question was something like if today is Monday then tomorrow must be...

I said Tuesday.

And I got the "sorry you don't qualify"

I was thinking uh I know the days of the week!

I've never gotten that question.  I have gotten questions that don't give me an appropriate option to answer so I either have to lie or quit the survey.

I do not just quit.  I answer the closest to my answer with what they give me.  Like the how old are you and it skipped the bracket that included my age.  So it eventually kicked me out and I got the DQ cents.  If I just quit I get nothing.  THEY are the ones who screwed up.
