plasticbag : Spaceship Entertainment talks about symptoms of addiction in World of Warcraft and references something I wrote a while back on the subject... - I'm getting more and more fascinated about this. Obviously I'm not advocating censoring or banning games, but from the comments in the thread I'm beginning to wonder if gaming is the memetic equivalent of sugar - something nutritionally empty but increasi

plasticbag : The Extraordinary World of Warcraft / South Park episode that was broadcast a few days ago - So like any good nerd I was both stunned by the accuracy and also irritated by the errors.
