BBC News Story on EQ
The BBC News Online has published a positive story about Everquest based upon a study done by several professors at Nottingham Trent University. According to the story, the professors' "findings dismiss the stereotype of a pimple-faced teenager locked in his bedroom. " It notes that most players are in fact over age 19.
It also deals with addiction, stating:
"A quarter of those questioned said they played for more than 41 hours a week. But Dr Davies does not think this is unhealthy. He said: "Most people I know spend about 3-4 hours a night watching TV... so in many cases it is just a substitution of entertainment rather than some unfortunate development in their lifestyle."
