Posted June 17, 2015 One thing I've found Wurm completely lacking is any form of exit survey. May help CC know why people are leaving since goodbye threads are simply an opening for all the trolls to run rampant, and feedback beyond the "inner circle" what/whoever that's made up of is should clear some interrogatives up for Rolf.

Posted June 17, 2015 +1 agreed. Implementing something along these lines might increase player count in the future if the devs notice a trend as to why people aren't playing the game anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 17, 2015 This is a good feedback suggestion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 17, 2015 It'd definitely be something worth trying, though it wouldn't be perfect (people who leave for a specific reason that might make them angrier would be more likely to leave feedback, whereas people who we lose gradually less so, and so survey results still wouldn't be entirely representative of the players who leave.)

Posted June 17, 2015 I don't know if this would be of much value. Whenever some "exit" survey pops up I will just check to most convenient answer to get rid of it and be on my way. Sometimes if I am really dissatisfied I will check what I think would be the least applicable reason. Point being, if I am dissatisfied with whatever game, program, subscription, service, I am not very likely to provide them with any helpful accurate information. Good riddance and don't slow down my departure, is more my response. =Ayes= 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 17, 2015 These are generally only useful if you have a game with a recurring subscription that auto bills you monthly. Those situations, you have to do a specific action to "end" the game, thus prompting an exit survey to pop up. In wurm, you sell off your stuff and simply walk away.Great suggestion, but no practical way to impliment, other than setting up an "iquitwurm@wurmonline.com" email address and advertising it in the client and on forums. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 17, 2015 True.... guess an email from notpayinganymore@wurmonline.com could be set to autosend when someone's prem runs out, considering there's one set to "warn" one of the last week of prem... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 18, 2015 +1 Nice idea - just wonder how many of those quitting will bother to find the form and state why... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 21, 2015 +1 Nice idea - just wonder how many of those quitting will bother to find the form and state why...personally love giving constructive feedback when I quit a game. I would hope others do if given the opportunity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 22, 2015 +1 It might highlight a key issue that the community at large has missed. It might do absolutely nothing, you never know until you try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 22, 2015 In a game like Wurm people just don't login any more, hard to ask them a question when they cannot hear you. Beside, I'm sure that Rolf and the team have a good idea about why old players leave - or more importantly - why new players leave the game. No need to bother them with e-mails asking for a survey when you already know the answers.too slowtoo hardtoo buggygraphics not good enoughnot enough content (as in scripted content)it costs RL moneypretty much covers all the reasons why new players leave. See, no survey needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
