It's good to see VtES and Rage on there, but my War in Arcadia cards are mad they didn't get the shoutout.

Everyone must ride with Charon, by and by. We merely wish to know what to ask him before we step onto his boat.

There is too many irreverent /personal questions on this survey. I don't give to telemarketing sales people this information either. Why do they need to know sexual preference or annual salary?

You can leave those questions unanswered and focus on the important things ("yes I have money to spend on VTES" )

As Ankha said, you only have to answer the questions you like to answer, right? And as for why, I guess they want to know how their target audiences look like. I do not understand how this is hard to understand. If there are many gay people, they might want to add more gay signature characters If many people have a high annual salary, they might get the idea that they can charge more for their products Or vice versa of course.

because they want to know how to better include and represent the community who buys their products in their products. Where to advertise to catch more people into the hobby. This is a pretty bog standard demographic survey.

i think you're going to be disappointed with future white wolf products if that's the way you feel about the greater inclusion of LGBTQ characters.

If they include LGBT characters as just a tool to sell products to LGBT comunity, then I'm shure will be disapointed.

While it may be true that someone can just skip the questions, I think it's a terrible idea to be asking these questions in the first place. It's far too much personal information that someone may provide because they aren't savvy enough to avoid doing so. It also just skews the data in that only certain people will answer certain questions, defeating the purpose of trying to get relevant statistical data.
