Looking at it i see a very young group ( i fall in the Zomg area myself). Do you find its easier or harder to maintain a solid pvp force since you have such a young playerbase?

Not too surprising but interesting to see. Other alliances should do this and see how it compares :)

Impossible to answer without having had experience of older or younger pvp groups.
Individually, I would say there is no difference between an older member, a younger member and the norm.
It's more about attitude than age specifically.

Furthermore,
If there are respectable polls that other peeps are interested in asking BoB as a whole, then feel free to ask them and we may do another batch.
Leave the smak at the door plz though, plenty of other threads for us to abuse each other in.

Edited by: Gouzgounis on 14/12/2006 17:48:42 It would be very interesting also if you could provide demographic data applied to different group of players, such as pvp-oriented, producers, miners, directors, or any other grouping you could come up with.
Or maybe other information like how come you joined bob (a friend of mine was there, i was a founding member, i was too tired of my old corp, all game developers join bob etc)
Overall kudoz for your time and effort DB Preacher,
P.S. So sad to see no-one voted greek folklore music

Quite interesting. Would be nice to do a poll of the MC to compare; how did you gather these statistics? forum polls?

Why would they run the same poll twice? We already have the numbers

All BoB members were sent a list containing the questions to their home adress, that is if they had supplied the correct adress on our forums. Answers could be submitted through an online form created by one of our admins. The person submitting the answers online had to insert a password which was sent to him aswell to verify things.
Pretty straightforward imo --------------------

Hmm, not sure demographics based on a role would produce too much interesting stats however, I will ask a question based on what do you see as your main role inside BoB or something.

I'll ask this for sure.

These were polls done on a central forum so all corps could answer.

I don't see how you draw that conclusion. The majority are over 26.

From a purely analytical angle the most important thing I take from those numbers is:
73% with no kids.
No kids allows for a lot more flexibility in play time as well as longer play time if so desired.
One category that I didn't see but would have really rounded it out would have been Marital or Significant Other status. I think those with a "better half" can explain the effect of "Better Half Aggro" on play time and/or availability windows.

Speaking only for myself.
Would you mind giving us some stats on the places you are playing from nothing to personal just europe/asia France/Germany ect.
Also other mmo's played how long playing.
Four out of five Minmatar say the signature sucks. Film at eleven. |
