hello ximbos!

as some of you know, last week i ran a survey about the current state of senatorships as a product and as an experience. i closed the survey when it reached 100 responses, and i'd like to thank everyone who took the time to fill it out!

the full survey results can be seen here. below are some key take-aways.

- survey respondents were 44% non-senators, 32% current senators, and 25% former senators.
- overall, 60% of ximbos feel that senatorship is currently not worth buying.
- the vast majority of people said they would be compelled to buy a senatorship the most by a change in behavior from site owner (41%) or new features/benefits for senators (38%).
- the most popular reason for choosing not to renew senatorship was because of the site owner. the second most popular reason was not voting for current PB (completely fair tbh!)
- there were only 6 perks/benefits out of 14 that >50% of current senators feel greatly improved their gameplay experience. these were, in descending order: all outfit slots unlocked; doubled maximum duration for some activities; all artifact slots unlocked; activities costing 50% less energy; bonus 500 diamonds and 1000 B$ per month; 2x reactions and fight/debate votes per day.
- respondents overwhelmingly disagreed with the idea of the pink house aggressively advertising senatorships. not only would it have a majority neutral-to-negative effect on players' likelihood to purchase senatorship, it would reduce their opinion of the pink house and their enjoyment of the game.
- the most popular suggested perks were x2 sex appeal and B$ for every hour worked, customizable ximbo homes, frames around avatar in forum/recently active section, and a small monthly pack of senator-exclusive shop items.**

** and a note on suggested changes: someone in the feedback section said that ximbo homes being senator-exclusive would separate the senator and citizen gameplay experiences too much, so they suggested that ximbo homes have multiple rooms that are unlocked by default for senators but must be purchased with lots of diamonds for citizens. i like this suggestion better, what does everyone else think?
additionally, i think visual additions to more clearly mark senators at a glance is a wonderful idea and also easily implementable. i also had the idea of making a profile badge that changed in looks depending on how long someone has been a senator to reward long-time subscribers. i would love to hear opinions on that idea!

thank you again to everyone who responded!

Interesting reading indeed. Thanks for sharing them! Seems most users share fairly similar sentiments

The idea about having the hypothetical ximbo homes available for all ximbos but only expandable to senators seems good. It gives an automatic taste of the feature and thus advertises it. To be a more compelling feature, I think it is also absolutely necessary for other users to be able to see your house and vice versa, maybe leave ratings or comments (maybe there could even be contests or something). A house that is only visible to you would only really be a digital dollhouse, which I feel many users would ignore if only they saw it

definitely true and i totally agree! the idea of ximbo homes is in its infancy at this stage so it hasn't been established how it will actually work, but i think them being something other users can say and comment on or rate (similar to how profiles are now) is the best way to go about it.
