Grandmothers

Mature players in general, I've seen some kids (Generally very mature for their age, while running with kid only guilds), But i'd have to say most people who play are late 20's early 30's

[Craigers07]

The majority are home makers and science teachers.

The majority are home makers and science teachers.

Just to elaborate...that's a homemaking science teacher...

considering the amount and diversity of alien races you have to extinguish the vast majority have to be fundamentalistic xenophobes.

[SirAggravator]

I imagine there will be some home economics teachers too.
Also it's unlikely anyone over the age of 120 is subscribed.

[mws2970]

I have been in PUGS with several players who were still in the womb of their prison-bound, science teaching, homemaker mothers.

Oddly, enough 99% of the player bas are lft-handed pipe welders from Akron, Ohio. (1)

Curious, isn't it?

I think there's alot of military vets and/or DAV's. Also, I've encountered more people than expected that have some sort of physical disability and cant work, so they play DDO to pass the time.

[FuzzyDuck81]

lets see... i play games on PC (& used to do PnP), read webcomics, watch progs like QI, mythbusters, dollhouse etc, listen to rock & metal... so in my case at least, pretty much a stereotypical geek

Bored IT people

Scratch that..just bored people..

[Cedwin]

I've run across a lot of military vets, web developers, programmers, and stay at home parents who are/were PnP fans.

Well, according to the forums, a lot of people that reply to state of the game posts are programmers who have more experience with rolling a game out than Turbine does.
