Hmmm, I don't think that was there when I voted, but I could be wrong.

when creating a survey, not only should one always specify if the highest or lowest number is best (it's NOT a given), but more importantly has an option to allow one to not answer irrelevant options.
Many a survey's answers are merged with the bull-droppings of forced answers. In my case, that presumes I'll even finish such a survey.
[edit]
What is the proper answer for not-relevant? 1? 3? 5? Would it really be too much trouble to either allow skipping questions or adding N/A ???

I have a feeling you're going to regret asking that.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Not at all the same.
Not Important implies a ranking - a relevance. In other words, some weight was given. An implied comparison.
Not Relevant implies that there's no rank as it doesn't have a valid connection (within the context). Not a comparison.

No.
I'm saying that something can be related (thus, relevant) even if it's unimportant.
Something could, instead, have no relationship, and therefore be irrelevant,

How can you function without either? 
Along with Antimatter and Dark Matter they've discovered the existence of Doesn't Matter which appears to have no effect on the universe whatsoever!

Apparently, they can be used for enemas. Presumably once cooled. I heard that from That One Creepy Guy

Just too generic a response - after all, that could be said of plaster-of-Paris and/or gerbils;

I see a lot of rants about colleagues in CP form almost everyone, and as I see it that means that human factor is very important...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

This survey leaves out the option that one is an entirely independent developer.
Solo.
The previous survey had exactly the same basic flaw!
It assumed that NO developers were self-employed!
Code-Project desperately needs to find some better monkeys to pen this stuff.
Preferably ones with REAL-WORLD experience, which includes 'going it alone'.

And it's not clear if this is meant to be "1st", "2nd", ... or "5 stars", "4 stars" and so forth - I am assuming the later, myself.

Don't take it too seriously! Who cares what the results are ?
I agree that the rating is not clear, but what concerns working alone: In your professional life I guess you are in most cases part of some team, either directly or indirctly by contributing to team goals (i.e. provide some useable deliverables to be put together by others). The samurai approach (life-long single soldier) is probably not given for anyone. I'm self-employed myself too, but working *always* for or in a team - either on-site or off-site. So, I wonder what you complain about not having enough options...
Maybe you provide your own Survey - Chris is very open to anyone, probably next week you are already on-air! Will see how "perfect" your Survey is And again - relax - don't take it too seriously!
Cheers

You have to look at it another way - think about what you would need if you were to work on a project with 3-4 other CodeProject members.
