Hi guys. I really need your help for two research papers I'm writing on wotmania. This is part one. If you could take five minutes and fill out this survey, it would be incredibly helpful.

-What is your race?
i'm half israeli. that doesn't really fall into demographics that you usually see... i guess middle eastern?

-Do you think that there is an explicit hierarchy at wotmania? If so, how does it break down?
not explicit.

-Do you believe that there is a hierarchy at wotmania, but it isn’t officially noted by anyone? If so, how does this hierarchy break down?
implicit, sort of, but only perceived by those who have the psychology to perceive it. just splits between people who have been here since the beginning and people who have come more recently, with several different gradations in between extremes.

-Do the terms Elder, Midbie, and Newbie actually mean anything for a person, or is it just a title that establishes how long someone has been at the site?
sort of just a title. it means what you want it to mean

-Do you think that the admins on the site are in higher standing than the other members?
i don't know. i don't think about it

-In your opinion, do those who post on the Community MB think that they are “better” than those on the WoT MB?
yeah, probably

-In your opinion, do those who post on the WoT MB think that they are “better” than those on the Community MB?
yeah, maybe

Thank you.
sure
