May I please interview you (MMO gamers and Developers)

Hi,

Let me introduce myself, I have been gaming for over 6 years now and I am student of cultural anthropology and development sociology.
I am going to write my thesis about online gaming and I would like to interview MMO gamers and developers.

The topic of my thesis is the informal side of the online gaming industry, so I would like to interview gamers and developers about activities such as;
RMT, exploiting, goldfarming etc. and how these activities effect the (future) game design and game play.

I am interested in gamers opinions on the above mentioned topics, so it is not mandatory that you have partaken in such activities.
I would like to interview gamers who have and gamers have not partaken in the above mentioned activities.

The interviews are confidential and will be held online (msn) or via e-mail, depending on what you prefer.
I am not interested in your real life identity, only in your opinion as a gamer on the above mentioned activities.

If you are interested in being interviewed please let me know by posting in this thread or by sending me a message and I will contact you.

I hope to hear from you!

Question 1: What game did you spent on your life, gaming away 6 years?

I don't mind being interviewed.

Just send me a private message with your questions and I'll be sure to jump right on it.

I want to guess Maplestory or Runescape. :D

I'll take private messages for the interview. I don't like giving out emails.

Pm me questions and I'll answer ASAP

Send me a private message, I have some time to answer questions.

If you interview me I'd be sure to put all my own analysis over the past 8 years into a sociological and psychological perspective to you.

I've noticed the parallels between MMORPG's and their progression and the historical culture of all the worlds societies.
