Bear in mind, I played Ultima Online back when it came out and for many years following that, and that was THE game that started the open-world community-driven content MMO genre. Eve may be more polished and may have a greater following and has lasted a HELL of a lot longer, but UO was where it allllll started kids..
Well I was around long before the internet, have never played any online game except EvE and in my 4 year experience i have to say it's a great way for the naive to learn harsh lessons without harsh injury. It's pixels. You want change, you make it with power. I think it was Timothy Leary who crunched the miles of sociological data to conclude that the person with the fewest tricks for interacting with others will have those tricks honed to a razor's edge and therefore dominate any encounter. A limited range of ways to interact with others is defines as sickness. Short version: sickness rules.

That SHOULD word is an express elevator to nowhere. You will never, ever convince people of anything using that word. You can try reason, logic, ethics but the word should as a beginning makes it all your wishful opinion. In fact, as a free human, the quoted declaration of what i should do naturally makes me want to do the very opposite, unless i am older than 12, in which case i hear you, shrug, and do whatever i was going to do anyway.

The word should is still in your edit. Also: traumatize the broken individual

Must strenuously object to the implication that morality and ethics are some kind of complex science only for super intelligent folks. Ethics and morality can generally be understood by children, who lack only wisdom from experience that guides choices. This thread is silly, like all the other e-bushido fueled drivel.
