Guild Wars 2

Hi everyone! We are a group of students from North Dakota State University that are independently researching online gaming communities so we can help improve game quality. If you could please take the time to answer our questions we would appreciate it!
As a heads up, we are not doing this to get paid, we are doing it to get an A.
If you are uncomfortable posting your answers on the forum you can email us your survey at CommunityQuestRPG@gmail.com
Thank you so much!
Jonathan, Jayce, & Mickelle
