Joshy 4,368 / 44,996 Report Post Posted January 4, 2023 First: Thanks to everyone who participated! A lot of people helped in order to make this happen again. @the best name will announce soon in this thread the winner of the free 2 months VIP. I don't know who the winner is yet, but I didn't want to hold back on the results any longer. Enjoy some entertainment as you browse through the results 🙂 Thanks, Salad! We had a very good turnout this year with 205 participants, which was similar to last year (GFL demographic 2021: Results). Thanks for participating! An interesting note: Nearly 80% of the responses were done within the first week (really 77.56097561% for anyone who's picky). A last minute announcement may have helped squeeze in another 5.3% during the remaining days. A slightly interesting shift in how long people have stayed with GFL this year. Most members who were here for 7-12 months last year (about 40 votes) are now in the 1-2 year category (last year about 60 votes). Similarly: Members who have been here for 5-6 years (last year about 20) are staying past the 6 year mark (last year < 20). Spoiler Results from 2021 These results are almost the same as last year. Spoiler Results from 2021 Our staff population has decreased a lot compared to last year, which has decreased by 7%. Luckily: Most voters seem to be enjoying their time in GFL 🙂 Thank you for the positive feedback! According to this graph: People are getting older; it also looks like some of our newcomers are part of the older group. Welcome to the community! Spoiler Results from 2021 These results are nearly the same as last year. The percentage of bisexual members decreased by 4%, and other increased by 5.4%. Spoiler Results from 2021 There are less single people than last year, which has decreased by nearly 10%. 5% more people are dating (IRL), and about 2% more people dating online. Married couples have nearly doubled since last year! I'm not sure if that's a coincidence or not. Spoiler Results from 2021 I'm either really tired, or I truly do not see this in last years demographics. I'll compare this to the US Census for now, which these results look reasonably comparable (although they do not have an "Other" option). Comparing to the US census made sense because most of us are from the United States. Spoiler Results from 2021 Spoiler Yes: I was shameful and could not whip up the flags fast enough to post this. I should have contacted graphics team right away! Lesson learned 😞 This poll expanded to include some other educational pathways such as a Certificate, Professional Degree, or an Associate's Degree. GFL seems to be really well educated with nearly 47% people pursuing some sort of higher education, and more than 70% have at least their high school diploma. Some people are making their way through high school, and I would imagine they are doing a great job. No matter the case: 110% of you beat me 🥳 Spoiler Joshy These results look very similar to last year although there are more freelancers this year. Shuruia can confirm: I don't know how to make religious polls. It does look like there are a lot more people in the "Atheist or Agnostic" group; also a few less Catholic folks compared to last year. Spoiler Results from 2021 These results didn't change too much with most people continuing to not care about politics. Democrats have increased by 8.7%. Spoiler Results from 2021 Similar to last year. People are playing more hours than last year. I don't know why I used yellow again. Too much yellow. I am curious if it's because we do the polling over a prominent holiday period, and so maybe people have more time to play. Thanks for putting so much time into our community and servers. Spoiler Results from 2021 There were 71 other games not captured in this graph, which only had 1 vote each. It seems most people here enjoy Minecraft and Overwatch 2, which Events team will be excited to host in the future 🙂 Spoiler Results from 2021 Most people are using Windows 10, and some have switched to 11. Just my personal take: I switched to 11 and I've been having a lot of issues with my laptop now 😞 be sure to check that the vendor has drivers comparable with Windows 11. We have some hardcore people using Linux, and I didn't know anything worked on MacOS including games. I don't think we had this question in last year. Spoiler F or cfffffff Nearly 20% of the Chrome users from last year are trying something new this year, which seems to have gone to Opera (up by 7.2%) and Firefox (up by 4.3%). The new category, Microsoft Edge, has 7.3% of the votes. Spoiler This question had a few new categories this year, but it looks like most people still use Youtube. Spoiler A little bit less people are watching anime than before. Spoiler Results from 2021 Subbed or dubbed stayed nearly the same. Spoiler Results from 2021 Look at what I can do 💃🤸♀️🏃♂️ This stayed about the same too. @Liloz01 put this one together. Thanks! The number of purple votes increased and is now a close tie slightly beating blue. Spoiler Results from 2021 Awesome word cloud! Thanks, Alexis! Can't remember which one was mine, but I see a lot of good ones in here, and I hope one of those good ones were mine haha. Acknowledgement I definitely forgot about this activity and @Salad not only posted the reminder, but he put the poll up too; he also put the playlist together. Thanks, Salad! @AIexis also generated the word cloud, which came out really awesome (and unfortunately she had to do some filtering. Please be kind people! Thanks for the cleanup, Alexis!) Just like @the best name my spelling and grammar is totally horrendous (and in good alignment with my low GPA you may have seen above), and so thanks to @Big Man Fatty for giving it another look... giving me a little confidence booster in posting this highly visible thread. @Infra gave me the tip one which graphing tool looked the best, and I personally agree. I hope you all enjoy it too 🙂 @Liloz01 for one last graph I'm not sure who originally started all of this stuff, but I definitely referenced a lot of @Ben's work. He might not be visiting as frequently (I'm not sure), but I have to credit him for his good reference and past guidance. I didn't whip this up on my own so having a good foundation helped. Hope you had a happy holidays if you do visit. (edit: I'm hearing it may have been started by queue. Thanks, queue). This isn't a goodbye thread, and so I must move on.

Roger Gunshot 204 / 5,018 Report Post Posted January 5, 2023 Edited January 5, 2023 by Roger Gunshot Time for me to find out who needs to be bullied this year. Starting off, we have the Fr*nch person. Nothing against you personally (yet), but my wrath against Fr*nce has to be directed towards someone, and you're the unlucky individual. Coming in at a close second, these "people". This was objectively the worst OS that Microsoft ever developed. Don't give them false hope that this was a good OS. Third, these two slivers of unknown people from "Where do you spend most of your time in GFL". How can I bully you off of labels alone if there are no labels? You're getting bullied for that. These psychopaths. What are you, Kanye? My lawyers have advised me to make known that this is a joke As an honorable mention, these poor souls. I can't even bring myself to bully them I feel so bad for them. Why do you do this to yourself? There is professional help, it gets better.

Also, whoever submitted the Kim Dracula song, thanks! I didn't know about them before. What do you mean, there is way more supporting devices for your elbows than not being able to walk. While able to still use fingers and all that, you're more likely to break more bones just trying to get your fingers up. Plus your legs have to support your entire body weight. Having NO KNEES, you'd just fall to floor 24/7. Unless you're in a wheel chair 24/7. You have more choices to help mitigate against having no elbows, they have so many ways to help against that. Having no knees, wow all you get is a wheel chair or a giant splint. Fight me, I'm enraged Fun demographic tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are essentially living life with straight legs or useless arms at all times; walk around with straight legs... it's a little awkward... but you can do it, you can even climb stairs. Now pretend that your arms are useless. Duh!

Toxicgamer69420 1 / 734 Report Post Posted January 8, 2023 If I were going with that, then my arms are straight all times. Which I could move around still, infact I would slouch less since I'd have to accustom to that, If I didn't have a knees, (Which is the only bone joint that connects to the femur and shin bone). Which would make it not straight at all, Or if we are still going off "Straight bones" and would cause even more grinding bone meaning MORE bone problems. Wow I am feeling so much better! The elbow also has one bone that connects the humorous to ulna and radius. Both are pretty bad not to have, but with the elbow supports you're less likely to grind bone against bone, we have sorta a fat that helps stop grinding against bones. It does run out though, and people have surgeries to help fix that. Either way, you're bones wouldn't be straight, arms or legs, Since the knee and the elbow bone are literally the only things connecting to the other side. If you were to make the oh no muscle's are to support it. Yeah, too support it, they can't carry it. Doesn't work as well that way.

You're cherry picking treatments only for missing elbows and not missing knees. If I didn't have knees, all I need are big ole leg braces and boom, I just basically have straight legs; which is perfectly fine, just a bit awkward. If I have no elbows, even with the best treatment, I can't even really touch my own body anymore, it's useless! Accept the vast majority (75%) L!
