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.
Anything to help.
-What is your race?
English. Caucasian.
-Do you think that there is an explicit hierarchy at wotmania? If so, how does it break down?
Mike, Pento, the admins then everyone else.
-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?
Other than what I've noted above, I don't think there is any other sort of hierarchy. Others think differently, placing elders over midbies and midbies over newbies. There are however certain groups here whose members newer people to the site may believe to be of higher standing in the community.
-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?
Only to newbies who want to rid themselves of the newbie tag as quickly as possible.
-Do you think that the admins on the site are in higher standing than the other members?
Not really, some of them may be more respected or more admired (TMJ), but I wouldn't say they are of higher standing.
-In your opinion, do those who post on the Community MB think that they are “better” than those on the WoT MB?
Nah, just different.
-In your opinion, do those who post on the WoT MB think that they are “better” than those on the Community MB?
Maybe, I don't know not having visited the WoT MB in a long time.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
