How is it ok Xanga???????
Dear Xanga,
Please tell me how it is ok for a survey to ask me over 20 questions….(It was even over 30 but at least over 20) all about our family…about our Tv veiwing…..what channels we have and all things like that….over 20 questions and then tell me I don’t qualify….and I get 0 credits for it.
I spet how many minutes answering all those questions…they probably even got all the info they really wanted….and then I don’t qualify and get o credits.
I waste all that time….ANSWER OVER 20 QUESTIONS and get NOTHING FOR IT!!!!!!
TALK ABOUT RIP OFF XANGA!!!!!!!!!

I’ve done 4 of those and got credits on them all. I wonder what the deal was with yours. Thats weird and frustrating. I had one that took me 30 mins to do and if it had not given me the credits, I’dve been ticked! Sorry that happened. I don’t plan on doing anymore of them myself. I only did them to get my credits up to buy 6 months of Premium for the winner of my contest!
@UnworthyofHisgrace - Yep. I am trying to get credits for hubby for premium. I just gave him a month because that is all I have credits for.
I’m sorry
. An outside company provides those surveys… one of them used to be really bad and did what you described above, so we got rid of them. Should we cancel these guys too?
@john - I really don’t know the answer to that question John
It just really made me mad tonight. I really figured it wasn’t your fault but knew you would know who I should be mad at 
Not mad at you John…just mad at what happened. I know Xanga works really hard.
Things like this happen every now and then right…..as long as they dont happen too often
yeah, i rarely do these surveys anymore. i just delete them.
I’m really curious about your site! are you a messianic jew? i want to know your story.
@jensa07 - I have been called messianic before
If you ask my one friend James 3_1 he would say it is obvious.
I have done a few posts on the issue in the past month.
I always tell people I don’t label myself……. I am a follower of Yeshua Hammashiach (Jesus the Messiah) but if people want to throw me in the messianic category….well, I am ok with that
that’s neat. i had the opportunity to have worship with Christian Jews (I don’t know the right term is!) and was really touched. We sang the song Hevenu Shalom Aleichem and I nearly cried. I also had a professor who taught us a bunch of Hebrew songs. I’m sure it was strange to see a Korean standing around singing Hebrew songs, but it was great. Do you worship in a Synogogue? On Sabbath? Where are these posts you speak of?
@jensa07 - Here are links to a few of the posts….

I never bother with those Xanga credit surveys anymore because I am NEVER the type they are looking for….so I just refuse to waste my time anymore!!!

I don’t think i’ve ever done one of those surveys, but i did one on Facebook one time and same thing. Ugh!
That’s why I now ignore them. They want too much info on some of these anyway. NO WAY.
@john - We appreciate you commenting on this issue, John. I’ve stopped doing surveys for the same reason. Perhaps you should take a poll or other questionnaire of users as you consider whether to replace the survey company.
While I have you, Xanga was horribly choppy this morning. Pages weren’t loading. When they did, comments wouldn’t record. I have an auto post from Faves.com going through the MetaWeblogAPI; it didn’t post and generated an error.
I couldn’t post a pulse, either. I will say, though, that a pulse posts through Ping.fm worked marvelously despite the other troubles. Don’t know what gateway that’s using, but it seems to be clear even when the website is having loading issues (runtime errors, page not found errors, etc.).
@jensa07 - It is not so strange when you realize that Adonai Elohim is drawing humankind to Himself and that Israel is His Light to the Nations. For beginning with Noah then on to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, He chose these families to be a blessing to all the families of the earth. It was good to hear of your experiences in your comment. It cheered my heart. Shalom.
Happy Belated Birthday!!
@koldodi - Thank you.
Hope that you are all in good health. Have not seen you on much recently.
Shalom
@Kristenmomof3 - Healthwise, just a little sinus junk here and there but nothing major. Seems like there are many things going on. I need to get my posts done I want to do but alas there are pressing offline matters
