Typetrigger Survey
As we prepare to revive Typetrigger, we would love to hear from those of you who have participated in this community over the years. Whether you primarily write or read, whether you have visited for years or are a relative newcomer, your feedback is welcome. Feel free to skip questions. We want to rebuild the tool and the community that is Typetrigger, but our sense of what is best (and worst) about the site may be different than yours.

We are, of course, aware that the biggest issue with the site in recent years is simply that it has been down (no triggers scheduled) for months at a time. There have been a number of technical issues along the way as well, most of which are currently resolved. While you are welcome to let us know about how these issues have affected you, most of these questions relate to the site when it IS up and working!

Thank you for your participation in this survey and in the community.  

Truly,
Lily
