''the results of the survey was hidden by UKDN because it was aware of what the results unexpectedly showed about the hobby,''

You are so very wrong.
All banned and ex members i.e YOU don't have access
to things like this.
And yes the survey was my idea,my work,so
under my jurisdiction and not hidden.
A bit like your book,you wrote it,>all your own words

So the world at large isn't allowed to see any results from this statistical masterpiece?

I don't think he's asking you to publish the raw data you know. If you're not hiding anything, where's the problem? Or are you just unwilling to reveal that this alleged survey is actually not very well implemented/accurate/worth paying any attention to?

As a slightly bemused onlooker to this thread, I can't see why you won't quote any figures, other than for the kinds of reasons that have been suggested.

It might also be an idea to do yourself and your fellow hobbyists a favour by not acting so much like a troll.

Well, put it like this. I've seen the results and if UKDN are NOT aware that they are highly damaging to the image of the hobby, then I really don't know what to think. So why aren't they archived then? And, why are you NOT willing to try to use them to discredit HA's figures? Why are you trying to evade putting your collected data to their intended use?

well, I would not be so sure of that. Where there is a will there's often a way...
