Opion Outpost survey problems

[Lurkergirl]

I don't mind Opion Outpost ,its just that sometimes they drive me nuts .

One time I was doing the pre screen survey .There was a question where none of the above was what I needed to choose ,yet that was not an option .

So I emailed them and they stated they have nothing to do with those things .

So I let it go tried one more time and there was the option now .

So I preceeded to go ahead with the survey .

After a good 15 minutes they told me that I no longer qualified .

I mean didn't they know this earlier ?

So today I started another survey ,got to one page and none of the above applied to me (it was about alchol and I don't drink any alchol ) but no they would not let me move ahead .

I suppose I could have lied but thats not something I do on surveys .

So I emailed them again for what its worth .

Anyone else have similar problems ?

Frequently, but with other sites as well. I've often told these sites that, "I don't know", and "n/a" are more than appropriate for some questions.

This makes a participant lie or simply x out. Either shouldn't be an option.

I have run into that before. It had to do with alcohol, which I don't drink. They had no choice for nor drinking alcohol and so I just had to leave the survey. I won't lie, I will just x out of it and go to something else.
