    i have done the Bartle test a long time ago, when there were just 4 player types - and came out as SEA type with pretty much no killer/griefer attitude. This doesn't mean that I don't kill NPCs, but that I have no pleasure with pvp or harming real people. Well, I have participated in pvp in EVE for about 2.5 years a long time ago, but not to harm people intentionally, but to keep my wormhole space clean and anyone entering wormhole space knows that he is eventually not welcome there.

    England.

    The list has scotland, wales and UK. Which is slightly insulting. If it's going to be specific and list countries in the UK it should show them all.

    I like it. And its mostly accurate; I like exploring the unbeaten path in games. Though it makes me seem like I'm an RPer only. I just like exploring and theorycrafting occasionally.
