This chapter is not written for people who are not yet sure whether school is good or bad. It is written for students that realize the way that compulsory education and grades destroy the natural curiosity so many children feel ... who realize how the tracking system keeps the poor people and minorities in our society on the bottom while keeping the rich and powerful on the top ... who realize the danger of teaching complete obedience to authority and who are fed up with the racism and sexism in schools. It is written for students who have 'gone through channels' trying to correct these problems and who are tired of helplessly waiting while the schools destroy more and more minds each day. It is written for young people who realize that because they are trapped in school they don't have a chance to learn what they need to know to create a free and good life.

Or more to the point, what you you say if I suggested there was a way to get the richness of single-player narrative in an MMG with no loss of agency?

It was pretty full on. Lots of retired engineers. A sea of Beer Guts and "Back in my day" quotes.

What a sad state of affairs. If only academics and developers could get together, smoke a doob, and have a love-in or something, everyone would be a lot better off!



5 | 25 | 00

that is so ok with me.



5 | 26 | 00

it's raining again, but not in my heart.



5 | 27 | 00

why not actually try something, and enjoy the trying...

You're fun!

you know, I had you pegged as a total liberal, possibly a 60's hippy yourself -- but I'm getting the distinct impression I was wrong. (this is a good thing, in my book.)
