Well, unless you have a few dozen Neopet owners going to your site every day, then the only people who are going to answer are those that had their accounts frozen. I think that that's what Izin meant by "one-sided."
But maybe you could turn it into something better. Instead of being like a poll you make it a petition, and then you confront Neopets with all of your sob-stories.

Well, I don't know what I'm talking about. I just went to the website to find out what on earth these so called "neopets" thingamujigs are, and I still haven't a clue. Hmmmm.

well, the poll is more like "did you deserve your account being frozen?"

neopets sends cookies??? I thought Shady was the only one. Are they chocolate chip too?

Is there any way to stop certain words being corrected in the processing. eg. I want to target bad english and therefore want the input to remain as wanna rather than change to want to.

*shrug* try having a keyphrase 'wanna' with a really high value, like maybe 25 or 30... I think high numbers like that override some preprocessing, but I'm not too sure

Nope, she might just have to be a bit more accepting of peoples mistakes then!

isn't 20 the highest possible?

I don't think it would work anyway, but you should test it. I think that the input goes through preprocessing before it ever sees your keyphrases. For the same reason contractions like "I'm" can't be put in keyphrases.

Contractions are for the most part expanded when parsed. A key phrase of "I am" will be called if someone inputs "I'm"

I was able to give the keyphrase a high value (I tried up to 50), but the preprocessing still gets to it first. So i think Turing's Dad must be right.

Turing's Dad is never one to consitantly be correct...
Just joking, but still you never know.
