Project99 Demographics - Poll #9

[timhutton]

Have you ever wondered who the person behind that other character actually is? Ever wondered what kind of people frequent these forums/play on the server? Me too, so let's find out!

This is part 9 in a series of posts to help determine just what the P99 demographics look like. I think we may end up slightly surprised. I will attempt to do a couple of these at a time, so as not to spam up the forum

This reminds me of those dumb standardized tests in school. I'm half german and half mexican but look 100% white, and I always marked myself as hispanic to hopefully raise those seemingly racist statistics a slight bit because I always scored well on those tests.

Did the same here :P

I always scored well on those tests.


Oh--you White, alright.

I think this poll is the most shocking yet tbh. I mean I thought I knew the majority, but not with this type of landslide!

I blame it 100% on this advertisement.

Shouldnt that have boosted the african american demographic?

[Acrux Bcrux]

we have more native americans playing than asains? are yall clicking the wrong button or something?

[citizen1080]

EQ1 isnt grindy enough to satisfy the average Asian. Plus, if their clicks per minute arnt 1k plus they tend to fall asleep.

[Nirgon]

EQ isn't grindy enough lul

I think this poll shows that we need to make some non-classic changes to the game, so more races feel welcome. I'm not just talking skin tone. I think the devs should create new cities that certain human races (Asian, Black, Hispanic) can start in. With this new feature in the game, the server would boost in popularity, and subsequently the end game raiding scene would really improve because more players would be flocking to red and enough players would join blue that all the uber zerg guilds could be competed against and trained in VP!

What do you all think?

I'm 98% European descent as far back as I can track, but I'm brown enough to get chased across a parking lot in the post-911 "brown guy" hysteria. Whatever the fuck that is.
