Good way of trying to get enough people fill in your questionair by introduce yourself as a girl lol.
Good luck girl?
Games played:AC1-Darktide'99-2000-AC2-Darktide/dawnsong2003-2005,Lineage2-2005-2006 and now Darkfall-2009..... In between WoW few months AoC few months and some f2p also all very short few weeks.
Haha, did I introduce myself as a girl? 0.o Guess that's coz I am one.. No trying here, people won't fill it in just because I'm female anyway, so I just hope they find it interesting enough, or me nice enough:)
I tired to help you out but the questionnaire is flawed and it is also much longer than 15 at least 20+.
The flaws are in the questions,many questions want a forced answer when i actually did not agree with any of the answers.This was the case in the Bartle section,lol who is Bartle,he should have failed Psychology for not realizing those questions do not pertain to everyone at all,especially since there was a lot of PVP questions to witch i am not interested in at all.
I could not continue the questions because it wanted,EVERY question answered,witch would give flawed results
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Took part in your research. Good luck on it. lol One funny thing Id like to note about gamers (especially the guys) is they dont believe women play mmorpgs. (Flash for you guys who think you have the market) Women are taking over in all mmorpgs except maybe the first shooters (I dislike those). Guys can keep that type of game. Great survey. Bet if we started a survey here on how many women play mmorpg the response would be enormous.
5. Gaming is in harmony with the other activities in my life
6. For me gaming is a passion, that I still manage to control
7. I am completely taken with gaming
8. I cannot live without gaming
9. The urge is so strong. I can’t help myself from gaming
10. I have difficulty imagining my life without gaming
11. I am emotionally dependent on gaming
12. I have a tough time controlling my need to game
13. I have almost an obsessive feeling for gaming
14. My mood depends on me being able to game
Like what the hell? o.O all the above could be summarised in 2 (max 3) questions, which also would not make whoever is taking it like they are attending some AA meeting.
10. Were you unable to reduce your game time?
12. Have you failed when trying to reduce game time?
Care to explain the difference?

Hard to really say,i know for a fact there is TONS of guys playing female characters in games.Eve really does not have any reason for a guy to play a female ,since you don't really have a player but more so an avatar,and in that game the female player base is claimed to be 5%,i would bet it is even lower.
Some good questions for the Psychology questions would have been related to in game shopping,learning game mechanics,as i already mentioned>playing of opposite sex,grouping or solo.

That's just the way psychological questionnaires work.. I've had many comments about it, but the questionnaires I've used are used and validated before, so the outcomes are meaningful to me! It may seem really useless that you have to answer questions that are much alike, but outcomewise, it does make a difference for the researcher if he asks 1 or more questions..
There are so many things I would love to research besides the things in this current study, but I had to make a choice, or the questionnaire would've gotten even longer.. But yes, it is interesting!
Oh and thanks to who filled it in:) About 50 more to go!:D
You seem to have been rejected online or hitting on a guy that you thought were a girl.
You seem to have misread what I said:D Anyway, on topic, need at least 80 more responses!
I wasn't responding to you but you have similar forum names.
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that you think that Silush and I are somehow conspiring to "hoodwink" people. I have no idea who she is. She just happens to be a chick from Amsterdam doing a psych study... to what end I have no idea. I'm not even sure how our names could sound similar....
I think Silush might appreciate the attention with the hitting-on... If nothing else she'll at least appreciate the free bumps to her thread
No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-
When someone in his/her own thread constantly replying its posible becouse of attention she/he gets and love it.
Male domminance gamesite, then a girl makes topic and announce in her first sentence, she is a girl for starters and all the ho... boys reply and she loves it:P
I smell a .......
Ahh well maybe im wrong and see things that are not there =D
So i maybe wrong, its after all internet hehe.

Or it may be because I want to show I'm still around and active to answer any questions? Plus, as suggested earlier, the free bumps are ofcourse good.. I'm here just for research purposes, and I don't like being called whatever you were gonna put on those ....... Bit narrowminded to judge like that don't you think? And for the record, I'm not looking for any dates or attention since I have a guy already:) So please just fill in the questionnaire and I'll be all boring and not responding to any jokes anymore. Can even pretend to be a guy to stop all the raging hormones if that helps.. So this will be the last time I respond to any sexist or offtopic comments.. But feel free to say/ask more intelligent things! And thanks to whoever filled it in^^
The lack of a sense of humor in this thread is greatly disturbing.... I'll be in the Off Topic area.... people are nicer there.

I'm gonna leave the questionnaire online till after the weekend, and I hope to have enough data by then! I'll check here now and then if anyone has any questions:)
Thanks^^ The results will take a while though! So much data to analyze, and especially writing it all down afterwards will take a lot of time.. But yes, I'm very curious too!
Since I won't have time to check the data during the weekend, I'm going to leave the questionnaire on till monday! So if anyone still wants to fill it in, please do:D
Thanks! And don't worry, wasn't planning on coming anywhere near anyone;) And yea, being vague.. It's what lots of psychology questionnaires work like:P I'm sure you did just fine!

What she means is now that you answered the questions she can get inside your head, and I think she found some scary stuff in there!

Hehe you think so? I'm the living proof of a female gamer:) Well, not anymore, but I was for quite some time..

I wish it was different! Just a few more responses and I'm done:D
I'm gonna leave the questionnaire online till after the weekend, and I hope to have enough data by then! I'll check here now and then if anyone has any questions:)
Filled out the survey hope it helps
Ofcourse it does! Thanks alot:D
Can't wait for the results, good questions

Some of the answers and question are kind of vague and have too many ways to interpret it.
At least I tried to fill it out as accuratly as I can anyways... Hope it helps..
And no, I am not being nice because you are a girl. Girls have cooties... stay away!!
Thanks! And don't worry, wasn't planning on coming anywhere near anyone;) And yea, being vague.. It's what lots of psychology questionnaires work like:P I'm sure you did just fine!
