I rly need to show that Oprah piece to my mom and to my friend JT to show HIS mom. :\ My mom believes stuff she sees on tv a little too much sometimes.. esp on talk shows and Judge Judy, etc. :\
And sadly, life just replicates itself online too :(
In MMOs with player controlled economies (like Ragnarok), even when it starts with the best intentions, soon somebody starts paying fighters to go out and kill to get loot for them to sell and soon ppl start paying that person to use their name to sell stuff... and what is that? A franchise.
XD
RO has basically duplicated our entire economy and it happened by itself. :\
This is kinda why I like CoH I guess, cuz everybody's equal there. There's nothing that can seperate you from other ppl. Everybody has the same chance to succeed and b/c of this most of the players are casual players and adults and are very nice ppl who will always help you out :)
