Hmm. Interesting. Seeing as how I've played mostly sci-fi MMORPGs and none of the swords & sorcery ones except a little NWN, my answers may have been skewed heavily by guessing.
But I think it pegged me anyways. I do love to explore.

Since it looks like mostly a socializer and explorer crowd, here are some relevent quotes from the article:
Socialisers like achievers, because they provide the running soap opera about which the socialisers can converse. Without such a framework, there is no uniting cause to bring socialisers together (at least not initially)...
Socialisers generally consider explorers to be sad characters who are desperately in need of a life. Both groups like to talk, but rarely about the same things, and if they do get together it's usually because the explorer wants to sound erudite and the socialiser has nothing better to do at the time...
A case of positive feedback: socialisers can talk to one another on any subject for hours on end, and come back later for more...
Explorers consider socialisers to be people whom they can impress, but who are otherwise pretty well unimportant. Unless they can appreciate the explorer's talents, they're not really worth spending time with...
Explorers hold good explorers in great respect, but are merciless to bad ones. One of the worst things a fellow explorer can do is to give out incorrect information, believing it to be true...

oh great! So I'm surrounded by a bunch of losers (err, ok, eccentrics), lol
Achievers tend to regard explorers as losers: people who have had to resort to tinkering with the game mechanics because they can't cut it as a player. Exceptionally good explorers may be elevated to the level of eccentric...

I'm still trying to picture what a tailor with like 90% killer and 0% socializer would be like, rofl. I wonder if we have any such folks? "NO I don't have any friggin clothing, well, maybe something in the back, come on over and try it on, but come make sure you come overt!" rofl.

heh, well I'm about the lowest socializer so far with:
Achiever: 73%
Killer : 53%
Explorer: 46%
Socializer: 26%
My proffession choice in swg was wildly different from my usual choices
, and it may explain why I wasn't happy as a tailor heh.

About 1/3 of the questions I wanted to answer "NEITHER, NOT EVEN CLOSE"
IDON'T want to brag about my equipment OR Pk / PvP. GAH. ( At least 5 questions there)!
Apparently, I'm in a very small minority ( EAS) according to it's list. I share the type with most the Ultima designers
I played that for 5 years... hmnnnn....
If given a choice,I play a crafter/ tavern owner/ fisherman/ whathaveyou. When I do hunt, I have more fun in KNOWN groups ( not pickups), but soloing is more convienient.
