    Yeah, don't look at me like that, they are! It's the system binding you to their will. They give you an alternate life in a virtual world and in return they harvest your money. And of course, it's all a government plot to restrict our freedoms. If everybody lives in virtual worlds, they will not have time to rebel against the consumer society or the system in general. Who cares about attacking Iran when we're raiding the Tauren tomorrow?

    I know of many people who have been playing these games for months, losing sleep and doing poorly in school. What the hell is this?

    Omg that's fucked up, the original poster is right, it is all just a distraction, same as with all the shows (especially reality shows) on TV, they keep becoming more and more frequent, and with this you don't even have to leave the game to stuff yourself with pizza... Everyone will just sit around distratced, not even noticing what is really going on... :rolleyes:

    I'm sure people will start taping the money to the door and rigging some kinda pulley system to bring the Pizza in so they don't have to leave the puter. [​IMG]

    Exactly. More like the Matrix with each passing day.

    Here's a Ctrl+Alt+Del comic about the /pizza command (I thought it was just a joke when I first saw it...)
