I never ran a BBS (although I thought about it), but I played SRE, BRE, TradeWars, L.O.R.D, and Falcon's Eye. I played SRE the most. Would love to play it again.

Paul used the caged lion metaphor to illustrate differences in freedom in a vivid way. That's it. This freedom disparity is a fact. Don't try to say that "less freedom" implies "sucks" just because the vividness offended your sensibiliti

I had the same thought when I read gruseom's post. His zooming in on your writing style is right on the money. (By the way, I could have begun that last sentence with "I think", but I thought better of it.) This is one thing I struggle w

I agree with the proposition. It's all about not being required to be somewhere doing something. Even if I would be there anyway, it's still significant that I have the flexibility that the reduced restriction affords.

Yes, I've been using Dvorak exclusively for a year or two. Vim was annoying at first, but it's really not too bad. Even if you don't remap the keys the new locations of hjkl make reasonable sense. My question for you Dvorak users is how e

Caffeine has never seemed to do much for me. Even if it did, I am fine without it.

Bingo. I think that's the key. And therein lies the problem. How does one keep a community small and high-quality without losing diversity.

From my previous paragraph: 'The kids can now say, "I don't have to assign more value to green legos just because your game assigns more points to them." Some things still do have a certain degree of intrinsic value, so this won't always wo

Ahhh, I see where you're coming from. I'm really interested in the socio-economic aspects of this, and the article was written in a way that prompted thought from that angle. Since I don't have kids and the concerns that go with them, I t

Maybe the underlying premise is flawed. Maybe it would be better to focus on teaching the children the fact that in this world inequality is unavoidable and how best to deal with it. After all, it's clear from the article that the teacher

Excellent point. This is an excellent lead-in to teach kids that the value they place on things is not intrinsic. Once they start thinking this way, they will discover that by changing the value they assign to things, they can manipulate

At the risk of stating the obvious, the most important factor determining the quality of stories on is how you define quality. The usual definition is to equate quality to popularity. This is problematic since the hordes of 14 year olds o

In the trading game that aided the formulation of the teachers' ideas, it didn't sound like there was a way for the children to add value. It's interesting that the article's core attitude is based on the idea that eliminating inequality is

I was thinking along the same lines. You could scale based on karma, or even something similar...like when the account was created or how many times it has logged in. It would encourage group think to a degree, but since we like the commun
