Which threads?
Could this poll be any more ambiguous?
Are we talking about the economy, crime/safety, chicas, sankies, putas, livestock, baseball players, hotels, ............?:ermm:
All the threads.
The answers to this poll says alot about how people perceive the DR via the information they seek on this site and/or what type of information has a greater effect on their opinions about the country, whether the info is positive (which would produce an optimistic viewpoint) or negative (which would produce a pessimistic viewpoint) and anything inbetween is moderated by all threads that are in neither extremes.
Of course, people who seek negative info will most likely be pessimistic and people who seek positive info will most likely be optimistic.
People who simply gathers random info will have a mixed bag in their opinion of the DR based on info they receive on DR1.
The answer various individuals choose on this poll says alot about what type of information X percentage of participants value to the degree that it affects their opinion of the DR.
It also shows what type of information X percentage of participants seek on DR1 (i.e. cynics or pessimists may seek negative or pessimistic information and thus, develop a pessimistic view of the DR based on info they read on DR1).
Moreover and most importantly, it shows whether people develop an overall positive or negative view of the DR after reading DR1.
