1. How many hours do you usually spend online for social networking sites daily? 1 - 2 hours
2. How many friends are on your SNS list? About 230
3. How many of them do you personally know? All of them, save 2 or 3. I don't see most of them regularly
4. Where do you usually check the updates on your SNS? On my phone
5. Are you concerned by the security issues imposed by these SNS? (Yes or No) - No. I never put anything that I would be worried about someone knowing online
6. Have you experienced threats on your SNS? If yes, please take time to describe it. - Worst I've had is mild threats by my peers, although I have had other issues through association, which has been much worse!
7. Are you in favor of the restrictions in accessing SNS at school? Please explain it further. - Yes, completely in favour of total restriction of them at school. When I was at school (3 years ago) we weren't allowed on them on the school computers, but this is far harder to moderate now that most new phones have easy access to them!
8. How useful are daily networking sites on your academic performance? (Please rate it 1 to 5. 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.) - 1, so distracting! I have to turn off my facebook during exam period
9. How useful are daily networking sites on your social interaction? (Please rate it 1 to 5. 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.) - 4. It's good. My friends and I use a thread to keep talking when we're scattered about the country when we're at university. Also, it's a great way to keep in touch with new friends
10. How do you feel about the lack of laws governing the cyberculture? - I like the fact that the internet isn't policed, because it means that people don't have to be scared to express their opinions. But it does mean that certain groups get picked on!

Hope this helps, sorry for the grammatical correction which is in orange. I don't know if English is your second or first language, but the sentence didn't quite make sense before.

Good luck :)

Sorry to keep bouncing your thread around, but
1) Technically, surveys aren't allowed in Other Voting Polls, and
2) Threads about anything Internet-related tend to fit better in the forum I've moved it to (The Life, Universe, and Everything).

Apologies if this isn't allowed, twocows. :(

(I'll be honest, though: if you really want people to answer your survey, I don't think Pokecommunity is the place for it. I can't tell you how many people will answer here.)

1. How many hours do you usually spend online for social networking sites daily?

2. How many friends are on your SNS list?
3. How many of them do you personally know?
4. Where do you usually check the updates on your SNS?
5. Are you concern on the security issues imposed by these SNS? (Yes or No)
6. Have you experienced threats on your SNS? If yes, please take time to describe it.

8. How useful are daily networking sites on your academic performance? (Please rate it 1 to 5. 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.)
9. How useful are daily networking sites on your social interaction? (Please rate it 1 to 5. 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.)
10. How do you feel about the lack of laws governing the cyberculture?
Well, some of the laws already in place are really out of date, and don't function properly imo. Overall, I'm glad that there aren't many laws limiting our freedom on the internet, but in certain places there really should be.

Yeah... this poll doesn't really work for me very well, since I've never been on an SMS, but I thought you'd like to know that there are some of us that don't like them. (Assuming you expected most people to say that they spend 10 hours a day on them or something lol.)

6. Have you experienced threats on your SNS? If yes, please take time to describe it. No.

7. Are you in favor of the restrictions in accessing SNS at school? Please explain it further. Yes. It keeps order and discipline. School is a place of learning, and unless it's necessary, access to these kinds of site should really be restricted.

10. How do you feel about the lack of laws governing the cyberculture?
It would be difficult to enforce any strict laws on the internet, of course laws restricting child pornography and similar things should be kept in place and even though it's difficult to enforce, attempts should still be made. Anything more restrictive than that is over the top. Problems children and teenagers face on the internet and SNS sites in particular would be better dealt with by teaching them to use common sense on the internet, rather than placing restrictions that will affect everyone.
