We would be extremely grateful if everyone reading this (members & lurkers) could just take five minutes to complete the linked survey.

There are two key reasons why this survey is essential to us:

1. We are currently undertaking a complete review of Charlton Life (CL)—its offerings and its purposes—and in order to do that properly, we need some degree of knowledge of what people like, dislike, and really want to ensure we develop forward in the right way
2. We simply cannot financially support the running of CL anymore. What started as a hobby for us six years ago has grown by an enormous degree, and so have the costs associated with it. We both have young families, and don’t have the necessary spare income to put to this anymore. In short, we simply have to make CL financially sustainable in order for it to continue and for it to develop.

We want to continue to try and move CL forwards, and to do so it is essential to us that the views of the users are taken fully into consideration on the best way to achieve this. So if you can find the necessary five minutes to complete the survey as honest as possible, we would be extremely grateful.

    My age range is missing Lookie, you've got 18-24 then 33-40 missing us 25-32 year olds! I've gone for the 18-24 because I'm not accepting getting old!

    I'd love to know how many don't admit to coming on every day even though they, like loads of us, do.

  • I take it that the info required is to be used to attract advertisers to this site?

    Too late i've done the right thing and gone for 18-24 instead.

    Not bad actually Len, apart from the trots, flew out to Luxor then took the cruise down to Aswan.
  • I mentioned in my summing up notes that Lookout & AFKA will not keep everyone happy, reading above aint that the truth.

  • Can you put a link back to the site once you've completed the survey?
    I know it sounds picky but it just makes it easier for dopes like me.

    FMA, no it won't. Its purely for the benefit of Lookout and myself and won't be shared anywhere else. Its to help us in our decision making, that's all.

    As said in opening post, if anyone has any questions please send us an inbox and we'll happy reply.

    Thanks

  • ive also completed already, stuck meself in 18-24, despite being a touch over that...
  • Done :)

    No, not necessarily, in that this info, as made clear, is for our internal use. We want to make sure we "understand" the community (demographics, what's liked/disliked etc). Yes, it will give us an idea on opinions about ads and any concerns that members may have, but it certainty isn't info we're collecting to purposely share with ad people. We just want to make sure any decisions we make put the community first. It may be that we are able to get broad info that informs advertising decisions.

    Does that make sense?

    Their tab up The OXO Tower for monthly meetings has to be covered before we even start talking band width.
