Very True, many forget that every avatar they interact with is a real
person with real feelings, not a computer generated character. The
only thing in SL that is real are emotions and due to the relative
anonymity provided and the lack of accountability, people tend to lack
inhibitions in Second Life and can get too emotionally involved. When
you turn off the PC, SL vanishes but the emotion lives on.

But that is a topic for a Psychiatry list rather than the PIC List.

It does have a reasonable scripting language so many hours of fun can
be gained by creating intelligent objects in SL, just to bring us
slightly back inline.

Cheers
