Just Askin': Are RL Names Important?
Second Life Insider
Nov 3rd 2006 4:05PM If you attach real names to peoples' SL identities you undermine one of the whole points of SL: To be a "new" or "different" persona online. Online Anonymity is a great thing.
Who are the griefers?
Second Life Insider
Nov 3rd 2006 4:02PM c) The third type of "griefer" is someone who enjoys playing practical jokes on people who take themselves too seriously. Is it sociopathic behavior to show up dressed like a hot dog and crash a vegetarian party on the grid? Silly, even immature, but is it approaching terrorist activity to just sit there quietly in a hot dog or hamburger suit in the background while someone talks about the virtues of vegetarianism?
I don't approve of sabotaging the software or stalking/harassing people over periods of time. But I don't see relatively benign practical jokes (aka a type of "Griefing") as anything to start ProkofyNeving about.
