“The subject is a complex intersection of academic concepts and business world realities. It could literally fill volumes. And by volumes, I mean of cash in my bank account. Buy more gold, bitches!”
That guy in the middle cubicle,
Computer Programmer
“It’s all very technical. In virtual worlds, we de-reference all the pointers. In a game we…well shit I just got laid off.”

Danny Glover,
Blogger, MoreDOTsMoreDOTs.com
“I smell a meme!”
Mr. Tinkles,
Game Designer
“I’m in ur virtual world nerfing ur Paladins!”
