I don't know how many of you play online RPG's, and I don't mean to offend any of you, but sometimes things need to be said....

Thats right folks, Everquest, by popular demand(?), is now a college course! Now you can get online in an immersive 3d world for credit! Hack and slash your way to that A+ you need to avoid academic probation!

Looking through the Reading Schedule I noticed that they cover Addiction and show Mazes and Monsters the movie. Which is so far off the scale of connectivity to online rp...
Admittedly tho, the week they cover cyber-sex should be a laugh riot :lol:
Read the blog of one of the people taking the class, and its like yeesh
I think these games will always remain a cult-ish type of thing, we have no worries about the fabric of our existence being destroyed by EQ

RPG's a cult-ish type of thing? Ha! Now where did I leave those severed goat asses...ah next to my d20 collection. :twisted:
