Are there any user personas for sites like Stack Exchange? [migrated]
In Game Industry we have the Bartle taxonomy of player types. A way to classify users in 4 main categories. Achievers, Explorers, Socialisers and Killers. I was looking recently if there is something similar on websites like StackExchange or in a more broader version of Knowledge exchange platform.
I can imagine some such as those that like to only answer or comment questions. Those they like to explore and find interesting stuff and others that only care to ask questions without giving any feedback. However, what I am looking for is something more "official" with a research backing it up.
Any try to use Google ended up to questions in Stack Exchange about how to create a persona.
