I'm a grad student researching the culture of teenage chat rooms. Email me at chatsurvey_bu@yahoo.com and I'll return it with a questionnaire.
Tell your friends about it!

A few points that are worth considering:
1) If you want to attract attention to your topic, you should post it in the right forum. And of all the wrong forums it could have been posted in, this was likely the worst choice, as its the least active forum on the board.
2) Usually, when you wish to get people to participate in a survey, you set it up online. Or, at the very least, you could have posted it on the forum and then supplied an email address to forward the answers to. In its current set-up, it not only looks unprofessional, which it is, but it would appear to be of spamming intent, which it most likely is. (Honestly, if that is your goal, your technique could use some work. :P)
3) If you want to be effective either in collecting addresses to spam or sell, or to gain valid feedback, then actually making a few posts so as to give yourself a personality and indeed credibility, while making the board less likely to delete such spam.
