Why nobody writes about what it has donne to them,divorced people,fired people,depresive people?O,yes,i know, why:because its against some of the rules of the forum.
I have a better 1:
Entropia has helped the children in the third world earn their food and pay for their schoolarship-WEEEEEEEEE
Let me just remind that feeding a kid in the third world costs only 300 ped ped month.

It also makes some people vindictive and bitter...?

(might i suggest you take a break btw, why the hell are you playing a "game/universe" if you think that little of it anyway? :p).
Besides if
EU is getting someone fired, depressed or divorced or similar its hardly the games fault now is it... Its the person playing it that needs to get a grip (or help if thats the case). Regardless what one might think of the cost to play,
MA, bugs blablablablabla theres noone holding a gun to their head forcing them to play im sure... And btw if
EU got you fired from work (or any of the other stuff) im pretty sure theres no rule preventing you from writing about it on forums, as long as its done as a "proper post" (I.e. "OH NOES PKPK 711
MA SUCKZORS F*CK THE WORLD
EU DEPREZZED ME" might not be a title to choose...).
Not saying i like all the rules here on
EF, and i hate censorship as a general tool (unless its spam/abuse etc ofc), but its not that bad now is it... Dont think i ever had a censored post and i wrote some pretty harsh shit both about some people,
MA and
EU in my time here.
On topic: Offcourse it can help "keeping the mind busy" and help with coordination. Its been proven in several studies that computergames (or whatever you wanna call it) regardless if its roleplaying, mindless shooting, mmorpg like
EU/WOW/SL/whatever, driving cars and beating the shit outta people in GTA with a bat or whatever tickles your fancy works in that manor, its also proven that it helps some children greatly that have problems concentrating and problems with coordination.
No ofc it wont help with your physical fitness... nor help people starving or deadly ill people... (Kind of a crap comparison to make?). And no i hardly think it can "cure" Altzheimers.
But there are beneficial things for sure if you treat a "computergame" as what its supposed to be (fun pasttime anyone? :P),
EU being kind of special since it plans to still be around in 50years like OnTarget said.
edit: i see you removed your post while i was typing up mine Mayday :p If you want me to edit mine to reflect that please send a pm ?
