'Overall, strong positive associations emerged among online commenting frequency, trolling enjoyment, and troll identity, pointing to a common construct underlying the measures. Both studies revealed similar patterns of relations between trolling and the Dark Tetrad of…

I thought the film was great. Especially in tribute to the original. There's a pathetic misconception that long = bad, all it highlights is the laziness of a viewer. If you fall asleep during a movie, I don't even want to fathom what happens to you when you try to read a novel. Or would that be a waste of my time,…

But it's not just these tapes. Sterling has a history of racism goes back before he bought the Clippers, it's these specific tapes that've brought action. This wasn't out of the blue, this was him him confirming an image.

And, yes I've likely 'said some stupid fucking shit' while drunk, but none of it would have…

It's actually the opposite of victimization. You're consciously doing it, apparently using it for laughs, and if those recordings didn't hold the context to justify the usage, you've ruined your own life. When it comes to rights in this manner, there are specific legal limits to actionable consequences available.…

Do a google image search of 'Legend of the Cryptids' and you'll get an idea of what the art order probably read like.

Krahulic's behavior was spread out over three years after the dickwolves joke. It was less than four months ago that he finally admitted to being a bully, sayings he was going to remove himself from the spot light for an extended period. Throughout those years, he was not alone in Penny Arcade's response and conduct…

Have you seen the game's combat?

Final Fantasy 14 does a great deal of processing server-side when it comes to player location/movement, enemy location/movement and area effects in combat. And almost no upcoming MMO uses the same traditional targeted abilities that have been the norm for so long.

What you're saying is basically in support of my…

You've heard that because it's an extremely important 'but.' Again, I'm lost at where you're getting the sense that people aren't saying that 'the end result has been a good thing,' because that seems to be the consensus. But it's not the end of the conversation. The goal is for there to not be a need for a diversity…

Why do we need to say thanks?

I'm saying, while you hype this game, be realistic that this game might not make a healthy transition out of Korea.

When it comes to environmental and player interaction, it has everything to do with bandwidth. It ensures that server architecture doesn't have to be focused on a broad range of lowest common denominators. South Korea is better suited for MMOs, they have an upper-hand that is nothing but a boon for their developers.

It has a lot to do with what can be practically accomplished for any MMO. The average quality of bandwidth and system specs define where development targets can be set. South Korea is ahead of everyone in these areas.

When frothing at the mouth over this game, everyone should keep in mind that South Korea has the best internet infrastructure in the world. There are extreme set-backs in networking over a landmass as large as the United States or Europe, especially when your infrastructure is lagging behind.

I wasn't referencing CCG's. For one, there are very few left, and two, they generally aren't that much fun. And in the same manner, Hearthstone isn't that 'free' in the long run. You're faced with either an incredible time commitment or an investment in the game store. There are however countless card games out there,…

There's something about anonymity that ruins what are seemingly innate things. I don't really get it either, might be a symptom of the loudest voices, but I don't think it's just that as there seems to be a ubiquitous surface of disregard whenever these topics are brought up. And I do my best to assume most gamers…

An affordable online equivalent of magic would be, magical. Even if they just focused on long ago releases. I'd also adore a high quality, online version of Android: Netrunner. That game is beautiful. Worth checking out, as one of FFG's living card games, it's more affordable to enter into than Magic, but becomes…

'It's not our fault, so why should we have to do anything?' Is basically what I just read, when these issues are inherent to and extremely visible in gaming. Gaming doesn't exist within a vacuum from society, you can't compartmentalize this issue by calling it global. Gaming culture is one of the largest and most…

If you have easy access to others who enjoy card games, why'd you waste that time on a simple game like Hearthstone when there are numerous physical card games that make it look like checkers, boring checkers at that?
