The Demographics of Groups and Group Leadership

pages: 1 | 2

[printer-friendly version]

Reasons for grouping and the demographics of grouping were explored. Female players are more likely to group for social reasons while male players are more likely to group for better XP.

Age differences were quite pronounced. Older players were far less likely to group for better XP and were more likely to prefer to solo either because of schedule constraints or because they preferred to play alone. Older players were not more likely to group for social reasons. It can be inferred from this that groups are typically composed of disproportionately younger players.
