How would you feel if there was no more YWS? Answer!

I'm asking because they say if less than 40% of your audience doesn't answer "Very Disappointed," then you still have a lot of work to do.

I clicked 'very disappointed' because it was the closest thing to 'insane with insanity'

I would be all like, 'Nuuuuuuuuu!'

Seriously, I constantly check YWS throughout the day. It was weird enough not having it for the week prior to the New YWS releasing ... would be even weirder if it'd never come back.
I wrote the above just for you.

Of course I'd be very disappointed if there was no YWS, especially if YWS went offline during the summertime, then I'd have nothing to do xD But during schoolyear I guess I'd be alright since I'm flooded busy with many other things (golf, DECA, KEY club, newspaper, AP classes, orchestra). I'd still keep in contact with the YWSers, and I'm thinking about starting a YWSC at school xD a Young Writers Society Club! -.-" I just need to go to the activities director and ask.

I really hope it doesn't go down, though. It's always nice to have a place a writer can be themselves and improve ^^

I chose "very disappointed."
But by that, I meant I'd die.

Wow, I'm apparently the only person who would only be "disappointed". That means you're doing a great job, Nate!

If you had asked this question 3 or 4 years ago, I would have definitely answered "Very Disappointed". But since I'm barely on these days, it affects me less. However, even if I left today and never came back, I would be sad to find out it's gone. Not only was it a huge part of my life, it helps so many young writers that I would be very sad for them if they couldn't come here.

Actually, I think I would be "very disappointed". Too bad I can't change my vote. :(

EDIT: I went on a different computer, and it let me vote again. When I voted "Very Disappointed" this time, it undid my previous vote. So FYI, you CAN change your vote. If you have two computers, that is. :D

Why isn't there an insane or suicidal option?

I'm with Evi on wanting to find out who clicked "Happy."

You can also change your vote on the same computer. Just select a different option and click "submit vote."

And I also voted "very disappointed."

Heh, I know who clicked on 'Happy.'

I got to make polls show up on the front page or somewhere busy like that again. While the 100% "Very Disappointed" (yes, it's 100%) is nice, it's not really representative of the whole site.

Maybe I could add it to My YWS again...

COMMUNITY COMMUNITY COMMUNITY

The good news is, Nate, even if the site design were complete crap, I would still vote Very Disappointed because I wouldn't get to talk to all the cool people anymore. I guess the actual site is the initial draw, and the community is the anchor that keeps people coming back.

Dude, Nate. Could you not think of a stronger word than "Very Disappointed?"

I think you need another option: Dead.
