Request

As a couple of you know, I am enrolled in an anthropology course this semester dealing with social relations in cyberspace. As a part of this course, we're required to do a research/term paper on a topic of our choosing.

For my paper, I chose to write about the concept and development of presence (most often defined as the state of "being there" in relation to a virtual environment) in relation to text-based role playing games, such as Milliways. So, the point of this post? I'm looking for about ten to fifteen volunteers (age eighteen or older, please) who would be interested in participating in a survey regarding his or her experiences with presence (if any at all) when role playing in Milliways.

If you are interested in being a part of this, could you please comment to this post with an email address in which I can contact you by. Information obtained in the survey will remain annonymous, and you have the right to opt out of the research at any time.

Thanks! :D

Might be too late for me, probably, but I actually wrote a similar paper several years ago on roleplaying MU*s, so I'm quite interested. :}
