Basically, a virus was spread in WOrld of Warcraft (As in, virus to affect character, like a real life virus), and this studied that just a bit.

I'm mildly curious on this. But, not sure what I think of it just yet.

Wow, that is really crazy! But, you know, it's a great "test" format to see how things like that spread! Very interesting!

*nod* I have a good friend in Ohio, who is a doctor (on paper, not a "doctor" doctor, if that makes sense), and he's always curious on such things as this. He tends to do a weird science panel at a local con, two years ago, it was on nose picking, last year, on the effects of alcohol on handwriting...stuff like that.

I had to forward it to him.

YAY!!!

I hope it gives the characters of every WoW player an itching, festering, burning-when-you-pee kind of death.

Maybe it will actually *gasp* give some players back their souls...

a SOUL? That's just crazy talk.

I like Kingdom of Loathing, for all of its "anti-WOW" nature. :-)
