BAD UNIBOT. Go back to your side of the sandbox.

The average NSGer...hard to say...

A self loathing narcissist with an ego the size of a Buick and the humility of a broken human being. Overweight anorexics, institutionally self diagnosed freedom loving totalitarians, selfish altruists, claustrophobic agoraphobics, law abiding criminals, insecure extroverts, geriatric children, the independently wealthy poor.

I don't know. That was a lot funner when it was just an idea.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I am just a regular university, third (next year's February) year student, doing Science, working part-time after courses and during the holiday.

Of course, I love NationStates as well. :)

Think there's a couple of escaped A.Is here who were unwisely given access to the Internet in the development labs they were created in. Now they wander the Internet.

Age 14-20, likely socially inept in some regards, highly intelligent but neurotic/strange, radical in his/her beliefs, and generally a bit bad at life outside the internet, arrogant online because internet warrior smugness. Thats the average NSer, in my opinion.

Well, since I cannot speak for others, I will describe meinself.

I am a 15 year old white cisgender male living in Pennsylvania (The US State no one cares about). I like Mathematics, Literature, Philosophy, Science, Video Games, Tabletop RPGs, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Worldbuilding, the Colors Blue and Red, Cherry Cola, Ginger Ale, Big Band/Swing Music, Beethoven's Music, Watching Terrible Movies, Knives, Gray Skies, Artificial Light, Sugary Cereal, Cartoons, and Not Dying and/or Being Tortured and/or Being Sued. I am an irreligious panendeist, and my philosophical stance is Humanism. My flaws are my self-percieved hideousness, my unhealthy obsession with those I deem my "friends", my pseudo-paranoid tendencies, my social anxiety, my borderline callousness towards those not in my "in-group", my inability to get over the bullying and alienation I received at my old school, and the fact that I am an overly melancholy, broken, and insane individual who will never truly know what true friendship or love is like due to an inability to adequately interact with his peers.

I believe that that is the average.
