Help me!

[Invent]

Hey everyone

I know this is an annoying post, I'm sorry!

I'm currently working on a dissertation/research paper for university and I need to interview some people as part of that research. The research is on games, specifically MMO's, and I was hoping some people would be willing to help me out.

It would just be answering a few questions in as much detail as possible and speaking to me for a little bit, completely anonymous of course.

So, If anyone is bored and would we willing to help me out by chatting for a while I would really appreciate it.

If you're interested just drop me a PM and we can arrange a chat on skype or elsewhere

Just post a short survey like everyone else does.

Unfortunately I need more in-depth interviews. And I've left it a bit late as usual lol

Well you must understand that most people are too impatient to spend longer than 5 mins filling in a survey, let alone volunteer to speak to someone over skype that only made an account today.

I do understand, I wasn't expecting much of a positive response. More of a hopeful last resort kind of thing

I'd do it if it wasn't stuck at work. Working both jobs so I'll be busy for another 10 hours.

You got steam? I've been playing video games, especially MMOs, for years now I could go ahead and answer some questions for your project after adding you on a friend's list and chat there.

I did that in high school once, I had to interview someone and I just didn't want to. So I just pretended I did and made someone up and "interviewed them" then wrote an essay on the whole thing. It worked.

That's nothing when you're a roleplayer.

My final thesis was 50,000 words. Half of it was made up. Kicked Tolkiens ass.

I did consider it. But then thought making up and writing out fake interviews would be more work than actually doing them lol, although I probably will have to fake some in the end

Hey, if you leave it for until 2 weeks until it is due then say " It doesn't need to be right now just any time in the next few days or even week really" you do whatever you can.

[Xanjori]

Pfft, you all missed the joke, bunch of failures the lot of ya!

I can't remember how long my essays were meant to be, it was History so I guess it was a lot, I just don't recall actually writing any of them...

Also OP I can help if ya need, Steam or Skype works fine for me.
