Hello memebers of iboats!<br /><br />I'm a college student at The University of South Florida. We were assigned to pick a message board, review it and describe the interaction people have on this message board, we chose iboats. As a group we were wondering how many people on the board are lower, middle or upper class? :)

Re: School Project

Why this sudden barrage of college students needing help? Seems this forum has been targeted for some reason, I don't see these requests on the other boards I frequent. What is drawing the college crowd here?

LOL, I know the question is weird, I wasn't to sure how to address it. Let's see Lower class could be families or people close to the poverty line or living pay check to pay check, getting help from the state, etc. Middle Class are people that have white collar jobs and upper class are those who work in the medical profession, lawyers etc.

We picked this because a member of our group found it very useful when he had questions related to his boat and when he was just looking for someone to interact with.

Re: School Project

I think you'd probably get the best answers by defining/setting parameters for each "class" and post it as a poll. Otherwise you're gonna be really scrolling through each post and then have to put it all together. Just a suggestion ;)

I thought about doing it as a poll but to be honest I wasn't sure how many people would actually respond to me. Questions like these make some people uneasy and sometimes mad. Sorry if if did offend anyone.

I think you'd get better results with a pole.

Most of the "rich" people I know are really living paycheck to paycheck! Watch out for that old fellow in the '87 Dodge, he's the one with the dough.<br /><br />Jinx
