Player typology ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

Player behaviour ,[object Object],I have in this model chosen to break up player activities into five groups. These groups include as the above figure illustrates: Creators, groupers, voyagers, players and griefers. In the middle of the model I have placed the so called socialisers without having further specified what kind of activities ”members ” of this group engage in. I have done this to symbolize that all SL players to some extent can be said to include an element of a socialization player type. Hence I argue that socialization is the one element that unites all the different player types (as well as activities) within SL .
