    Hey,
    I'm being a bit cheeky here and was wondering if anyone who uses this forum could help me out with research i'm doing for my college thesis? Its about reality TV, in particular shows like X-Factor and Pop Idol. I just have a short survey that i was hoping people could help me with, i'd really appreciate it!
    The easiest way is to just copy and paste it i suppose and use a * or something to indicate which one you'd choose...

    Thank You in advance! :)

    You'll have to forgive me for being an ass but...

    You registered here just to post these? That's almost like spam. I mean, fair enough if you were a regular member asking for help, that'd be alright but... maybe others will be kinder than I.
