While this is an interesting infographic, I think it is comparing apples to oranges instead of apples to apples.
1) Comparison of number of members.
-not all WoW members are eligible or wanting to date
2) Age
-not as many young people are on a dating site
3) More frequented
- I'm glad people don't spend nearly as much time on a dating site as they do playing a game. It's not
really meant to be a pastime.
4) Percentage dating
- Since the number of members is so high it is not unlikely that so many people dating both play the game,
but it doesn't mean they met on the site.
5) Numbers of replies
-There are not pictures of people on WoW. Players may be talking , but they didn't know what the
other person looked like first and use that as a judgment. And players may be replying just to
converse not to date.
"Gamers feel good and act quickly"
-that may be true, but unless you look solely at WoW as a place to find a date many of these
comparisons are pointless, at least to me.
