Heh I'm pretty sure we started using a different survey system purely because everyone hated sending out 'surveymonkey' links. They should call their business side 'engage<something>' or whatever...

Think of it more like going to a company that builds safes. Not asking them to blow the door open, but invent some magical safe breaking tool (that has never existed) and would then allow them to open whatever safe they want. Nevermind the

Woolworths and Coles have been competing on this in Australia for some time now. You shop online in the same categories as the shelves in a real store, then arrange a 3-4 hour delivery window. So much better than going into the store, plus

Like the commenter below/above. Hearthstone restricts this to a set of common wordings such as greetings, well played, etc. You also have the option to 'squelch' the opponent at any time, which mutes them completely.

You can even see it in babies/toddlers when they fall over or something and look straight to the parents to see what their reaction should be. Fretting leads to bawling and encouragement to get back up helps them just get one with what

Exactly, and the next problem is that it seems like EVERY real estate site does this. I have not found a SINGLE site in Australia to look for rent OR buy real estate, that actually filters based on what I enter. They are all useless
