metadigital Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I think the original poster is saying that in a crpg the world is flat, but with the illusion of being a sphere. That's my take, too.

Laozi Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I think he's trying to make an analogy between people thinking the Earth is flat, and people getting to wrapped up in a game's world. Why this is ironic, I don't know. Bingo. It is Ironic because what people in the past thought to be fact wasn't, reguarding the Earth, Sun Or Being the center of the Univers to the point it got some Scientist who descovered the truth burned at the stake. While the opposite is true at least meddaforicly for this people playing more posificly MMORGs online to the point thay kill them selfs because there hole life was built around that world & when like they lost all there eqipment, weapons, & even there characters finlly thay just had no grip on the reality around them at that point & even further example is people I know neglect there children, wives & even the conceped of taking out the trash. So you can now see that even though thay think the world in witch thay live in, is the same as the world thay lived in befor where the Earth is a sphere the Earth gos around the Sun & the Earth is not the center of the Galixie untile thay incounter some bug that sends them falling through the maps, as thay fall through space thay can now see that there world is flat & the sun dose go around the planet or world thay now live. While at the sametime the MMORG they are comsumed by has infact become the center of there galixie... Theres those spelling errors you were looking for Hurlshot, Pop. People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.

Musopticon? Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 And the Dutch. You can blame the inconsistent spelling to Dutch printing presses in the 17th century, also: Great Vowel Shift. And Celts have suprisingly little to do with modern English. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.
