Did anyone else get a weird Zazzle survey?

I just got a survey request from Zazzle, one of those appearing to be what designers feel about how Zazzle is doing, and all it wanted to know were the reasons I'm no longer active on the platform. Anyone else get this bit of strangeness?

Survey from Zazzle? - Zazzle

I checked the thread you linked to, and it appears that, so far, there are three of us.

Me too. I did the survey but answered it was N/A, I'm working on Zazzle all the time + making sales.

I got the survey too, although I do not recall a question regarding why I'm no longer active on the platform. The questions I had in the survey were reasonable and simple.

You must have gotten a correct version. For those of us who got the incorrect one, there was no way of answering. Whatever results Zazzle gets from what appears to be two separate surveys will likely have to be tossed out.

I got the wrong survey too. I'm thinking hmmmm... so 5-6 hours a day, 7 days a week isn't enough?

As someone who's been active on the Zazzle platform since 2012, I'm also scratching my head as to why I was sent a survey asking irrelevant questions. I filled it out as best I could, but not sure how valuable my input is, based on these questions.

Same here.
Maybe I'm working undercover 😄

I got the correct survey. The results will be meaningless since apparently so many active Zazzlers got the wrong one. There are probably people who left Zazzle years ago wondering why they got a survey asking them rate how likely they are to recommend Zazzle and other questions relevant to active Zazzlers. Not that they'll ever say that in the forum because they aren't on Zazzle anymore.

I just answered 'Other' and put 'I am still active at Zazzle' in the first two and took the opportunity to point out how they could serve to support the success of both the designers and the platform by ending their self referral program and allowing for more competitive pricing without the designers needing to adjust for being taxed by the "3rd party". Zazzle's only major flaw at the moment imho. 

But hey, at least they're not making us help pay for shipping or charging us a fee every time we make a sale. Wow, I just reread that and if I didn't know these are real things at other PODs I would need to ask myself what I'm smoking. 

But yeah, I was confused about the survey as well.

I deleted it, though I could have been more outspoken than that, I suppose.

I'm hoping one of the mods will weigh in on this. Getting the wrong survey is no big deal, but if they somehow have our accounts classified as inactive, it could have serious consequences in terms of product ranking etc. I assume we'd be seeing those repercussions if that was the case, but my paranoid side is still perseverating on this a bit...
