People play these games because they are either just bored or are not happy with their lives. Its a second life for them in which they can be and do anything they want. For some it becomes incredibly addicting and people can waste their whole life in this fantasy world. People that play these games seem to neglect their family and friends to further advance themselves in the game. It also gives them the chance to connect with other players and compete.

  1. You probably could have expanded on your ideas a little more here. There are some good points but it doesn't seem like you really hit all the key points that we discussed in our group. What about the ideas of a social community with acceptance? You seemed to be a little to brief, but you did hit some of the big topics we discussed. This could probably have been perfect if you just went a little deeper into some of your thoughts that you started.
