You should consider changing the data type for the user_answer field in the surverys_result_answer table. The text(255) doesn't match well with the comment field on the survey form. The users can type in more text than 255 characters, which then gets cut off in the database. With disk space so plentiful these days better to use a BLOG data type and let the users type as much as they want.
Otherwise a great and very useful plugin.
For anyone looking how to increase the size of the responses, do the following:
Open up your Wordpress table in phpmyadmin.
Click on wp_surveys_result_answer and click on the Structure tab.
"Change" (the pencil tool) the user_answer field from varchar 255 to varchar 3255 or any other high number, up to 65,000 something-or-other.
Save the new value.
Not sure if this step is required, but I also changed both instances of varchar(255) to varchar(3255) in the surveys.php file for the surveys plugin (Edit Plugins in Wordpress)
And there ya go, users can submit longer responses! I'm no programmer, but just learned how to do this tooling around in the tables... thanks to rodeworks for pointing me to the right part of the table to tinker with!
And then it
