Looking for LTHers to Interview About the LTHForum!

Hi there LTHers!

Two of my classmates and I are working on a research paper for our virtual worlds and online communities class at DePaul University. The topic of our research paper is "How Meeting Offline Affects Relationships Within a Virtual Community." Most of our research is based on interviewing people from an online community. We chose LTHForum because it is a Chicago-based community that promotes a lot of "meet and greets." We have to do 9 separate interviews, so we thought that a virtual community in Chicago would be a good choice.

We have an information sheet here that explains everything about how the interviews will be done.https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_LdDQDvJwTsT1RMUnpYaWltb0E

Even if you have not attended an offline event, we would still like to interview you about your experience on this forum! We will be happy to work around your schedule and meet at a public place of your choice for this interview because it is you who would be doing us the favor. We need these interviews done by the 15th, so if you are interested at all, please let us know right away!

Hello LTHers,
