Second Life - A Rant

[StagLefty]

I couldn't agree more. I've been saying for awhile that folks are losing touch with each other due to some useless technology. My pastor even did a series on this very subject a short time ago.We're becoming victims of the internet,twittering,facebook,blogging,texting etc. I'm old enough to remember when neighbors used to come by and talk with you while you sat on your porch in nice weather. Ahhh the good old days.

And I'm old enough to remember when I could walk to the gas station as a kid....

you didn't even scratch the surface of the depths this goes to:
real life lawsuits over property rights within the game:
http://blogs.pcworld.com/staffblog/archives/005816.html

real divorce over second life "affairs":
http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe...rce/index.html

and class-action lawsuits to the maker over property values:
http://www.lawyersandsettlements.com...te-linden.html

the only possible explanation is that these people's lives suck so much, and/or that they have social phobias that keep them from interacting in real life...

I don't know the rules- but can you create, say weapons to sell to other characters? make the best of it...

OMG,,,Is there any concept of reality anymore??


Kind of nice knowing there are people out there more pathetic than I am though...

Well we are "Ranting" online instead of at a bar like normal people.....

It's a big waste of time. I've gotten hooked on Diablo in past years. I feel like a recovering addict whenever I see the game or hear about the new Diablo coming out. Like most things, in moderation they're fine.

Good to see there is people more worthless than myself in spades, gives me a boost of self confidence

I thought the exact same thing as I read the OP.
