MMORPGs have gone mainstream. I've noticed as I move around websites that have nothing at all to do with gaming that an increasing number are including a sub-forum dedicated to MMORPGs. For instance, there's a sub-forum dedicated to "Virtual Worlds" (i.e. MMORPGs and the like) among the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) forums. There's one thread there that turns the connection around and takes this non-gaming event into Azeroth-- some folks have formed a NaNo Procrastinators guild in WoW. If you feel inclined to write 50,000 words in November and you play World of Warcraft, you might want to check that out.
Grrr! If only I could delete comments from my blog! I am willing to take some knocks for my content, but gold seller spam? Is there anywhere that you can go to avoid it these days?!
And this leaves me an opportunity to put a Post Script on my mention of Fiesta Online-- I downloaded it, thinking I'd give it a try, but there were people/bots (plural. As in SEVERAL) standing around spamming gold seller messages right where I appeared when I first entered the world. I don't think I'll go back unless they fix that.
