mystral, something strange is happening with some of your quotations, the quote is one text but the quoted link and person indicated is from another post
haven't had a chance for close look but what are classed generally as allowable projects on ks or indie gogo?.

I noticed, this seems to happen when I quote 2 different people in the same post, even though I quote the right post numbers, it refers to a different poster the second time.

Tbh, quoting has always been rather screwed up on these forums.

mystral: As I said, the last time I refused to let girls play with me based only on the fact they were girls was when I was 9 and was still in the "girls have cooties" stage.
Huh, that's about the same age I've decided I want to have nothing to do with guys ;P.

mystral: Again, I wasn't saying that anonymity was the only reason this happens.
I know, I know... These were mostly general remarks. I wasn't necessarily claiming you were wrong or assuming you thought something you didn't, I merely wanted to clarify something, as it occurred to me.

I understand, no offense taken or anything.
I just find this kind of thing really disappointing, because if there's one place where we should be free of discrimination, it should be the Internet. After all, between people who'll never meet in real life, sex, race, social standing or appearance should be completely irrelevant.
Personally, when I play or chat with someone online, only its skill and opinions matter, not any of the superficial stuff that we can't help but notice in real life.

The fact that large parts of the Internet seem instead to be a hotbed of intolerance makes me kind of sad, I'll admit.


But I'm getting really off-topic and I should leave the thread for announcements of new KS projects.
@Mystral-You anonymity theory is proven by Derren Brown: The Gameshow

Also, your European too , you seriously didn't use the word "cooties" in primary school did you? :)

There are also earlier, more classical sources, like Ortega y Gasset's "Revolt of the Masses"... and then there's Heidegger's notion of "Das Man".

Oh I know there are plenty of theories about the effects of anonymity, and it's well-known that being in a mob has an extremely bad effect on people's morality and sense of restraint. I made no claim to originality.


And no, of course I didn't use the word "cooties" when in primary school. I barely knew any English back then.
It's just that I find the phrase both funny and strangely appropriate.
For who likes Myst-like games, this game already entered the last day: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1781324918/xing-the-land-beyond

McDon: btw the RPG by the 9 year old has already been announced as a fraud so be aware before you decide to pledge. :)
People have said that yes, but I don't think it's been proven. However, if you pledge for it you're obviously pledging to get an RPG created by a 9 year old.
