They asked questions like "Would you be willing to see drastic changes in gameplay" and "what jobs would you like to see." It was a few months before 1.0 shut down and they were getting feedback for how to make 2.0. They basically did the poll when they realized 1.0's entire structure wasn't going to work and needed to be bulldozed and rebuilt entirely.

With more and more people seemingly unhappy with the different kinds of content being produced, it may be a good idea for SE to get feedback from a wider base than these forums.
