Fishraider Community Survey: Have Your Say!

[Mike McKiernan 36]

G'day all!

Today we're launching the Fishraider Community Survey so that you can have your say in the future of Fishraider. 🗣️

Start the survey 

We are really keen to hear your thoughts on what you love (and don't love?) about Fishraider, what you would change or add to the forum, and also get your input into some exciting new ideas we are working on.

It's an interesting time for internet forums – the advertising supported model of the last 20 years in no longer viable. Fortunately, as many of you already know, Fishraider is owned by the same wiz team behind the Deckee app, meaning we have the capabilities to make Fishraider bigger and better, help you connect and share with one another, and give you interactive tools to enhance your fishing and boating experiences. 

Really looking forward to hearing your input guys!

Cheers,

Mike

Hi folks,

Thanks to everyone that completed the community survey!! There has been a TON of great insights and feedback that we can use to help us focus on the right things for the community.

Here’s a quick summary of all the input and feedback you have given:

• Generally speaking, everybody is really happy with the forums. Plenty of comments about the helpfulness and responsiveness of the community!
• The majority of you would love an official Fishraider app combining the forums with an interactive map showing reports, ramps, weather, and the location of other Raiders.
• There has been a number of requests to create a dedicated Articles section, where members with expertise can submit helpful and informative articles and guides for the benefit of other members. 
• Many of you would love to organise some informal social events. Because Raiders come from far and wide, it may be more efficient for us to give you the tools and resources you need to set up official local Fishraider meetups in your city or town, which could then be posted on a central Fishraider events board. This way, events could occur all the time, and you would not need to travel far and wide to attend them. We would love some input from everybody on this?

Let's keep this conversation going!! Lots to do...

Having a live map location similar to snapchat/find my friends maps but only when people are online would be pretty rad, and maybe a live feed section like "hey heading down to blabla Lake for a carp fish whos keen", like a popup notification for anyone within an area of say 15klms of the person who sent the popup, then more raider members could meet and interact, limiting it to a klm radius will keep popups minimum, just some ideas, could even add in rain forecast or swell aswell..

i know for a fact that if someone was close and wanted someone to keep them company for a flick locally or within a radius id jump in and go meet and greet and have a flick.

Great feedback Squirt! The idea definitely has a lot of merit and we're giving it some consideration. These things are costly to build, but with enough member participation, we could make it viable. 

[Squ!rt 54]

yeh its not cheap to build let alone quite some time to script and code it into an app that suits ios and android, let alone linking it in with gps follow me location services. but would be fantastic, and user friendly.
