So... I’m making a research about SRO and I’d need all the help I can get on this.
It’s about how online games (e.g. SRO) affect our lives. If u have some spare time I would be really grateful if u answered some of these questions. U don’t need to answer all of these questions if u don’t want to, but every little help is welcome. =) U can pm or e-mail me as well, if u don’t want to post the answers in public.

1. Why do u play SRO?
2. Do u reveal your real identity (real name, residence, true personality etc.) or do u act as someone different? Why?
3. What do u do to make playing SRO more interesting? (e.g. guild/union events, games, races, movies, listening to music etc.)
4. How much time do u usually spend on playing SRO and do some other activities, like hobbies, being with friends/gf or bf, studying, suffer from playing too much SRO?
5. Do u feel or act differently towards some ppl after having played SRO? (e.g. personal or political issues, racism)
6. Has playing in SRO somehow affected your language? If so, then what has changed? (e.g. using more short forms of words, expressions)

NB! No personal real life info needed.

Thanks in advance. =)

Not always because its none of anyone's business.

3. What do u do to make playing SRO more interesting? (e.g. guild/union events, games, races, movies etc.)
I usually go PVP when im bored, or just go around stalls to see if there are any good deals.
Edit: Cant forget about music! Cant grind without music(Thanks for reminding PimpC -.-)

4. How much time do u usually spend on playing SRO and do some other activities, like hobbies, being with friends/gf or bf, studing, suffer from playing too much SRO?
Hmmm i dont really play SRO lately cause i got a job now and im working on my social life because it needs to be worked on right now.

5. Has playing in SRO somehow affected your language? (e.g. using more short forms of words, expressions)
I typde "****" without the "C" becaues of the lenguage filter in SRO xD

6. Racism in SRO?
Im not being racist to a specific nation, i hate everyone the same lol. (Unless they stay out of my way)

7. How do u feel about botting?

Listen to Static-X's CDs while playing SRO, that's my style.

1. I play SRO because I find it fun, and because my friends play it.
2. I act the same as I do in real life. (minus stealing stuff :wink:

)
3. I mod SRO when I get bored.
4. Spend maybe an hour every day or two playing, not very hardcore. When I do play it, it's with my GF.
5. I'm a little harsher on cheaters than I used to be.
6. I suppose I use a few more emoticons but otherwise, I type the same in game and out of game.

1. Why do u play SRO?
I dont play anymore but its a fun game, especially thinking that you can reach a goal... say getting to max lvl and finally start owning people.

2. Do u act with your real identity? Why?
Yes, there's no reason not to act with a different identity. The character I play has the same characters as me in real life.

3. What do u do to make playing SRO more interesting? (e.g. guild/union events, games, races, movies etc.)
Trade runs are fun especially when you have high lvl hunters right beside you and your low lvl guild mates are doing a 5 star run spawning hundreds of theifs. Just watching the high lvl hunters kill those thieves are fun.

4. How much time do u usually spend on playing SRO and do some other activities, like hobbies, being with friends/gf or bf, studying, suffer from playing too much SRO?
During free time, not any more.

5. Do u feel or act differently towards some ppl after having played SRO? (e.g. personal or political issues, racism)
Nope, after playing runescape though, it taught me how to manage money which was good. How to earn money from buying less and selling high. This helped a lot in playing silkroad and getting rich but the game is not that much driven by the economy unlike runescape.

6. Has playing in SRO somehow affected your language? If so, then what has changed? (e.g. using more short forms of words, expressions)
Right now, I can speak and understand at least 4 languages, 3 if you count one of them as a dialect but ye. Not sure how silkroad affected my language. There are, however, different games that i've played before that made my language skills better.

I play only around a hour or less a day when you average the time out over the week. So no, it doesn't really affect my life.

5. Do u feel or act differently towards some ppl after having played SRO? (e.g. personal or political issues, racism)

I think I'm gotten a tad ruder and slightly more mean. Some ppl in the game, are annoying no matter how nice you are.

Always. Because I thats how I am.
3. What do u do to make playing SRO more interesting? (e.g. guild/union events, games, races, movies etc.)
If it's the weekend/late at night and I've got alot of GT to grind, I'll set a movie on my laptop next to me. During the weeks, I usually do shorter sessions, so my guildies/union keep me entertained for that time.
4. How much time do u usually spend on playing SRO and do some other activities, like hobbies, being with friends/gf or bf, studying, suffer from playing too much SRO?
During the week, as much as possible (avoids doing homework). On the weekends whenever I can. However I have sometimes noticed me wanting to stay in and play SRO over going out, which needs to change, and hopefully it will when this GT ends (two days ^_^)
5. Do u feel or act differently towards some ppl after having played SRO? (e.g. personal or political issues, racism)
No, I don't think so.

Hmm, not a lot, I always used short hand in games.

Guild/Union/Friends. Without those playing this game would feel shallow.

I got an GF, I just put SRO away for her, my private life goes above everything else, so also sro

And i love to soccer, i do it 4 times a week ( Including a match ) That also goes before SRO.. All i do in real life goes before sro.. It is just a time driver, when i got nothing to do

And their are alot of nice people in SRO that keeps it fun

1. My hubby was introduced to the game by a real life friend of ours and eventually he introduced it to me and I got hooked! Its fun!

2. Real name is usually kept to myself, I like my char's name better lol, usually only say what country I live in, sometimes the state but thats all. As far as personality goes, I'm really shy in real life but for some reason on the game its easier for me to feel outgoing.
3. Jobbing breaks the boredom for me as well as pvping. Now that I've started a new character I hardly get bored, I have so many skills to look forward to and hopefully some nice drops along the way! Also the guild/union chat takes my mind off the grind.
4. I spend at least 3-5 hours a day playing sro, weekends its more like 6-8 sometimes more. I make time for house cleaning and shopping throughout the week, and weekends I visit friends/family if plans are made. I'm a homebody and perfectly content to sit in front of the game all weekend

5. My opinions haven't changed because of sro if thats what you mean.
6. Not at all, of course I use short cuts while chatting in the game or even on the forums but thats about all. I love joking with people I know in real life who play the game by using some of our SRO words

1. Why do u play SRO?
-I think of something else while I play. Ideas for a play, novel etc, tunes for my band or just business plans. It helps me get inspired sometimes.

2. Do u reveal your real identity (real name, residence, true personality etc.) or do u act as someone different? Why?
-just the basic name, and where I'm from etc, to someone i'm familiar with in SRO of course, not to just any Jane or John....

3. What do u do to make playing SRO more interesting? (e.g. guild/union events, games, races, movies, listening to music etc.)
-Music, talking to friends

4. How much time do u usually spend on playing SRO and do some other activities, like hobbies, being with friends/gf or bf, studying, suffer from playing too much SRO?
-SRO, well roughly 3 hours per day or less, that's if I'm on GT, sometimes i won't bother playing even while on GT. Technically it doesn't aaffect my times with other things

5. Do u feel or act differently towards some ppl after having played SRO? (e.g. personal or political issues, racism)
-Nah, I'm still the bastard everybody knows and loves.

6. Has playing in SRO somehow affected your language? If so, then what has changed? (e.g. using more short forms of words, expressions)
-I never surrender myself to leet speak. Never![/b]
