Non-commercial, but have the official line handy:
"The average guest will be a single male, 15-23 years of age,
usually
a student or someone employed in a CS or CS related field. Average
income of around $19,500.00. No data on breakdown by race is
available.
TTL of a single character tends to be 8 months, at between 10-35 hours
per week of play, decreasing inversely with the guest's age. Married
or involved guests will have a longer TTL but a shorter average weekly
time by roughly half, by in large."
