Ok i just finished the survey and my head hurts after rattling around my few remaining braincells lol
i hope and i prey that after doing this survey that we get to see the results cos id be peeved off being used as a test subject and not get to know the findings afterwards after all its a scientific community and world and i for one want to see the results and findings as well as the hypothesis of the two students!

I'll support research when ever I can.

Research is important. People need to do more of it. By people I mean everyone.

Yes, some forum topic mentioned something that reminded me of it last week or so. Wondering what the results are?

Are there any? Perhaps EVE players are a social nightmare?

Okay, not roleplaying, but "how you think you would react as your character in these situations in-game" alright.... I'll give it a shot...

Question 1:
"He/she would enjoy visiting an art gallery." (eyes cross)

Further questions that in no way apply to EVE...

So in all the systems on all the planets and moons and colonies of EVE there are no art galleries?

Well, I'd imagine that there are, but then I would be role playing. You're seriously gonna try to tell me those instructions make any damn sense?

Admittedly, it was a little weird, but I'd still like to see the results. Smile

I actually answered as myself because I don't really role-play. My character represents me in game, (whichever it is), so it's attitudes, reactions, and responses are essentially the same as mine, except where it involves sort of weird crossover stuff that can't possibly apply to me, then I just Null or make up an answer.

Yeah, see I do role-play, so I think it would have been much easier to just answer the way Galaxy Pig would, but we're specifically told not to... Very confusing.

Think of every question as being posed as a meta-gaming question and it will go down better.

e.g. "Do you enjoy going to art museum?"
Translation - "Do you care about the neat-o space background art that we go to a lot of trouble to put into the game?"

e.g "Do you enjoy being an instigator of a 5 car pileup that requires 6 ambulances and 3 meat wagon's to service - after the 4 alarm fire engine response finishes up?"
Translation - "Do you always consider smart bombing the hell out of the Jita undock after reading local for an hour?"



Bringing RL to EVE one mind numbing questionnaire at a time.

Thought it was a fun little survey, though not sure what that person on the other side of the computer who thinks she is running my life thought of it, meh, who cares what she thinks!

back to gate pop-poded
gate pop-poded
this happend 8 times in a row nailed a lot of SP from me that my corpmates neglected to tell me that you gota replace your clone if it gose pop.but on the 9th aproach to the gate the pvp pirate gate campin got fed up podin my ass they never shot me again while i live in that area {plus the amount of stiffs i left behind that day}.

NOPE i want to bring in an entire fleet of titans that look like an amarrian stubbed his manhood on the door of his ship when drunk and then i want to light jita up in a firesale.........spammin the local with sales makes me nuts like it dose to you too mate.

mybe some day ill grow past 1 braincell and be able to properly figure out the forums of eve.
