MMOs offer a place where unsuccessful or socially awkward people can become gods and they're intentionally designed to become psychologically addicting because they prey on the human tendency to want to keep pulling that slot machine (loot in this case).

I remembered a thread but can't find it, does anyone remember the thread where a guy was traveling from like, Atlanta to New England without stopping and basically called the state police fascists because he couldn't take a nap pulled over on the shoulder of the interstate?

Where are people getting this mythological status that it "infected" people? All it did was grey out a poster from the "pink" forums and give them that avatar, to make them easily identifiable. If they posted in the "Gray" forums enough times the cancer would evantually go away, but if they kept posting in the pink forums they would maintain the status. The goal was to starve out those forums but it was a dumb idea to begin with because if you post there why would you honestly care?

Elysiume posted:Define current because there are probably multiple concurrent canon Spider-Men. The latest Spider-Man ended with a reveal that a girl who was present throughout the movie goes by MJ (even though her name isn't Mary Jane), so there's probably going to be an MJ love interest going forward in the movies, at least. Hes talking about the mainstream comics since thats the one where spiderman sold his marriage to Satan and yes im reiterating this because gently caress its dumb.

Comptroll The Forums posted:It's remixed so often because people decided that a repeated setup leading into references to other things you may have heard of is entertainment. It is the new millennium's "how many X does it take to screw in a light bulb" joke and just about as amusing. Sheesh who ruined your roast?

I might get attacked for this but I think it might be better than the original. It shares a lot with the original in having a slow, plodding pace that helps immerse you in the world but tells its narrative in a more compelling way.

My Lovely Horse posted:The koala post has renewed my appreciation for how fundamentally hosed up Australia's ecosystem is, bringing forth either the deadliest creatures known to mankind or the least equipped for basic survival, with no readily apparent middle ground. Its what happens when you have a largely isolated ecosystem for millenia.
