    Survey Monkey is fine if you have access to a sensible number of people to invite to participate.

    There are vulnerable people who visit the site with severe learning difficulties. The rules have been designed to make this a safe place for such people.

    Genuine, well designed and operated surveys are not dangerous but the rules of the forum are designed to screen the good from the bad.

    Limited opinions are no better than asking the man next to you in the pub. It is likely to yield coompletely unrepresentative and misleading results.

    If you want to change the rules of the forum then please make your representations to NAS.

    The fact that you don't get it doesn't mean that the current rules are wrong. I think it means that you haven't really understood why the rules are there. There are real reasons that a number of us on the forum do get it and why the majority of these surveys should not be approved by the moderators.

    The rules don't prohibit surveys, but they do require permission and approval from NAS...
