TELLWUT

avemaria, I agree. I just did one with a picture of a woman with red lipstick...I won't say more because this is a G rated board but the implication was there as far as what she was doing and the questions that followed were not appropriate for something teens see. Yes, I know...they see everything but they wouldn't if people were responsible and didn't post this stuff. Glad someone else was annoyed by it..I have a feeling you're referring to the same one because I exhausted today's polls and it we all see the same thing.

I saw the "sex" one and didn't really appreciate it at all. I wonder if we all get the same ones? I submitted one two weeks ago and it was rejected, but today I saw it as one of the questions. What the heck?? I was told it had already been submitted. .

I'm seriously getting annoyed with the fact that they screen these surveys but then so many go through that are badly written. If they take the time to look they can certainly add in an "n/a" or "none" where appropriate. Or correct spelling such as the "Go Pooh" question. I'm not going to waste my time trying to submit questions anymore at this point. It's clearly a waste of time.

Half the time I can't be honest because the answers I need aren't there!

I am also amazed at the grammar and typos, also use of cyber language like ur, u and r. I can see when you're texting, to make it shorter but I have friends that are college professors and the kids actually write like this on papers. I agree with the option problem also..if they want honest answers, give the proper options. What do they do with these anyway? I don't really understand the concept of this company since they aren't surveys per se and they aren't being contracted by a market research company. I guess it's all about the ads (are there ads? I'll have to look again) :-)

I hope none of us here submitted this one that was actually put up to answer. One of the questions last night was "do you have a cotten cany machine?" Really? Spell check wasn't on at the time? Someone didn't even look at their spelling. And Tellwut, although I enjoy them very much, let that one go through? And while I am on the ranting roll, I only got 25 points this morning. Jeesh, ranting now over! :D

LOL I did notice that one yesterday about having a "cotten cany machine". There were a few of them yesterday if I remember correctly that the spelling was incorrect. It's obvious they check them when they are approving them but I guess spelling and grammar is not something that is being sought after. I dunno.

I don't fully understand this company either cricket. How they can do what they do and all but as long as I can keep getting those gift cards every month they can do whatever they feel like doing as far as I'm concerned. :o)

BTW: I've noticed the last few days the questions are getting more and more sexual in nature too.

I can't believe the one I just took. You'll know it if you see it...I would not post it here. I am not sure of what age you have to be to do Tellwut but all I can say is that this last question is something a younger person who is not sexually active would not and SHOULD not know! I'm with you in that I don't care about grammar and such as long as I am getting points but I really think they shouldn't put stuff bordering on porno or sex manuals.

I'd hope that they filter those by age, but otherwise the sexual questions don't bother me at all. I do wish they would allow you to filter your own questions because there are a few I don't feel like answering either.

I'm more irritated by the fact that they go through these questions but then don't bother to fix them. Why take the time to filter them and then make it a pain to read and answer them correctly? Wouldn't that make it more likely that any data you get in the future from "real" questions would be faulty? I'm sure that over time people will stop reading and just pick random answers as a result of this practice. "The correct answer wasn't there for my last Five Surveys so forget about the sixth, I'll just pick something out for that one, too."

yes that one.. and it's been building up the last few weeks.. the other one was asking if certain plastic surgery aided in 'specific sexual acts'.. like the one you spoke of..

so who's up for making the 'are you annoyed by the explicit surveys that go through on tellwut' question? :P

should give various answers as well

-yes, i don't want my kids seeing the words, let alone pictures that go with it!

-no, i have no moral conscience anymore, it doesn't bother me at all if kids see it.. i mean look at me, i turned out ok.. what harm does a 6 hour a day porn addiction do to harm anyone afterall?

then again it probably won't go through.. i just saw one asking what we think are inappropriate topics for surveys.. and sexual content was one of the answers..

I just saw and took that one too. Looks like we're not the only ones bugged by this. I am wondering where we see the answers to these polls.
