The future of the world :) - Scary :D

"On ebay people are paying real money to buy WoW gold... while some guy
in Korea murdered another guy over a rare sword that existed only in an
MMORPG. This essay looks at the way more and more people are failing to
draw a distinction between their real and online lives and takes it to
its logical, yet utterly insane, conclusion."

"If you don't know what an "MMORPG" is, don't worry. It's a geek term,
like "e-mail" used to be a geek term. For now let's just say it's the
most instantly gripping, involving and demanding entertainment
technology ever invented. The addiction rate appears to be about twice
that of crack Cocaine. There are 10 million MMORPG users in the world
and their population is doubling every two years. "

It goes right along with children doing wrestling moves that they see on tv, and killing other children.

then again, the streets are left to crack cocaine dealers who suddenly feel like its their territory

I think this is a greater challenge to parents out there. watch out for what your kids are getting into.

exactly....
You have casinos, therefor you have people with gambling problem losing their houses...
You have bars...and then you get alcoholics...

there are always people who push it too far...MMORPG is the same thing...of the millions of people playing, a small minority go crazy over it...is it a valid reason for the rest of the "normal" people not to enjoy it?? I don't think so...
