[QUOTE]Originally posted by Daniel Butler: [QB] I am the nerdiest, most internet- and computer-addicted person I know...and I just can't wrap my mind around the popularity for these virtual worlds. It's creeping me the hell out that stuff is spilling over into real life. And it's not even [i]real life[/i], it's just [i]life[/i] - online virtual worlds are not 'fake life' or something. They're games. Pointless games that give you nothing in return for your time and money except whatever sense of accomplishment you get from manipulating data sets on a server somewhere resulting in some 'good' thing happening within the game to your little character. It's frightening, literally, how seriously people take these things - and not just the crazy addicts, the otherwise-normal people who actually spend money on this stuff. Please, somebody explain the attraction to me in a way I can grasp? [/QB][/QUOTE]
