I swear, this is turning into one questionnaire per day...

People (not just the OP, but "questionnaire people" in general), it's annoying that you don't even take the time to read responses to previous threads, much less to really get a feel for the residents you are treating like lab mice. I bet you have spent a great total of one hour inworld - if at all.

I should have checked out the posting history.

Don't you learn? Can you even read? And if you can, can you comprehend the answers you received to your previous attempts...? :rolleyes:

There is economic stats on the main section of Second Life's website.
If you spent some time reading you already have the answers to those questions.
There is large percentage of people who live here as one gender but aren't assigned that gender at birth or legally, exact numbers no clue.
Anyone though can say they are female or male at sign in regardless if this is true,
and bank or credit card company isn't required to provide gender information to SL it isn't anyone else business to know.

Your "uni project?"

First learn the proper protocols of conducting research with approved methodology plus some information about your "uni" (class, purpose of research, how it will be used, etc.) and don't use annoying abbreviations.

That still is not guaranteed to have any respondents, but it will sure make you look a lot more authentic and educated. (Gah, what are the halls of higher learning turning out these days?)

• Are you male or female?

Male.

• How old are you? 18-25 25-35 35-50 50+

44.

• When did you join Second life?

2003.

• How often do you come onto Second life, on a weekly basis? once a week, twice a week, 3 times a week plus.

Three times a week plus. Plus. Plus. Double Plus. @_@

• On average how much money do you spend monthly on Second life? Between $10-$15 $15-$25 $25-$35 $35-$45 $45-65 $65+

Well, technically nothing because I'm cash positive. The expense side of my sheet here would probably be enough to make a lot of sane people need a fainting couch, though.

• How much of that monthly average is spent on clothes?

0.00000000000000000001 %

• Do you buy all your clothes from the “local” clothes shops?

Yeap. I'm still wearing the same outfit I got from Yuriko Muromachi (Silver Rose) back in early 2006, for the most part. Mystical Cookie made my glasses. Barnesworth Anubis made me some grey socks. There might have been some implied strings attached with those but I feigned ignorance and wore 'em anyway.

• How much would you spend on a top from a “local” clothe shop?

Oh, if I really wanted something? $L millions.

• Have you heard of American Apparel in Second life?

Yeah, I think so?

• Have you ever bought clothes from American Apparel in Second Life?

Newp.

• Have you been to the Nike store in Second life?

There's a Nike store?

• Have you bought anything from Nike in Second life?

No?

• Would you buy clothes from other premium brands in Second life?

Maybe?

• How much would you spend on a top from a premium brand in Second life?

$L millions. Not kidding, if it was *the* right thing. But it better be made by someone *I* consider a premium brand, like say silentsparrow or one of the others at that level. Real world brands don't even figure into this equation. Nike? Maybe as a collector's item if they ever vanish... maybe?

Probably 3000 Lindens per week.

Less than 1 %. I am often a dog and do not wear them.

• Do you buy all your clothes from the “local” clothes shops?
I do not understand the term "local."

• How much would you spend on a top from a “local” clothe shop?
Buffy! We can teleport. The term "local" is meaningless. You're really a 'bot aren't you?

No.

No.

No.

Thankyou for answering, i dont mean to offend anyone by putting up a questionnaire so i dont expect to have slghtly offensive responses. Yes i have examined the second life website and figures but i wanted to generate some specific answers to questions that you cant find the answers on the actual website. i want my replies to come from the users. I am aware lots of people have put questionnaires on but they dont all answer the specific questions i need to know. Basically if you dont wish to answer my questionnaire then dont bother leaving a ranting message instead. I have spent a few hours in the second life world but do have trouble getting grips to it. Im sorry if i give the impression of treating you like 'lab rats' but its only because i am obviously unfamiliar with the whole concept so am asking you nicely for feedback. Thanks again to anyone taking my questionnaire seriously i am grateful.

I don't care about American Apparel or Nike, and SL has its own 'premium' brands.

That's all the answer you're getting from me. :)

Just a heads up...you should revise your expectations a bit there. I would advise that you SHOULD expect "slightly/moderatly/serverely/slightly mental, should be locked up" offensive responses. And i would advise you ignore them.

I've never bought anything from Nike in either life and don't even recognize the American Apparel name.

I have spent a few hours in the second life world but do have trouble getting grips to it.


So answer me seriously - how the heck do you expect to do an honest and correct "study" about a concept you can't get to grips with?

I think this thread is a tease - and if it isn't there must be so many essays created about secondlife that one day a student will write a paper for a prof who IS on sl and will be marked accordingly. Hey, what if teh prof and teh student are having it off on sl and don't even know it???

Sure, I'll answer it. But Porky took all the fun out of it by telling you to ignore the crazy people answers.

• Are you male or female?

Yes. (Betchya never saw that coming)

• How old are you? 18-25 25-35 35-50 50+

n/a

• When did you join Second life?

last year.

• How often do you come onto Second life, on a weekly basis? once a week, twice a week, 3 times a week plus.

3+/wk

• On average how much money do you spend monthly on Second life? Between $10-$15 $15-$25 $25-$35 $35-$45 $45-65 $65+

I don't know.

• How much of that monthly average is spent on clothes?

I don't know that either. Seriously.

• Do you buy all your clothes from the “local” clothes shops?

I don't know what you mean by "local". If you mean they only exist in SL, yes, I think so. If you mean from the Neko store next door to my SL home, no.

• How much would you spend on a top from a “local” clothe shop?

L$150-ish would be my limit unless it was really hot.

• Have you heard of American Apparel in Second life?

No.

• Have you ever bought clothes from American Apparel in Second Life?

Not that I am aware of.

• Have you been to the Nike store in Second life?

No.

• Have you bought anything from Nike in Second life?

Not that I am aware of.

• Would you buy clothes from other premium brands in Second life?

Yes. FWIW, Nike is not a "premium" brand in my book.

• How much would you spend on a top from a premium brand in Second life?

L$150-ish. You should really ask my alt. She's the big spender.

I'm doing an essay on people who do essays on SL...
