[Machinations]

... unless you are one or more of the following:

1. MMO "veteran"
2. MMO forum-poster or forum-lurker
3. MMO armchair designer
4. MMO developer (hobbyist or actual)
5. MMO blogger

So, basically, if you have an opinion about MMO design (rather than just playing them) -- take this survey. It's 4 questions and takes 30 seconds.

I'm taking a software business class, and I'd like to hear your opinions: this is a survey about at what point you're willing to try new MMOs at all. Afterwards, drop a comment to join the discussion.

The Models:

• Subscription required to try
  
• Free 30-day trial
  
• Free unlimited-time trial
  
• Completely free-to-play

The Discussion Points:

• What do MMO veterans, forum-goers, and bloggers (i.e. Not-your-average-gamer) see as the maximum barrier to entry to even try an MMO in the first place?
  
• Just how big is the gap between Free unlimited-time trials, and Free-to-play for you? If there is a gap, why does it matter to you?
