This, but unironically.

😢 Did someone smash your stack?

Today she gets paid for being a virtual escort on the servers of the video game Second Life. It was through this line of work that she learned about the erotic community in World of Warcraft, and wanted to check it out for herself.

After a few minutes, various tavern guests sent her public and private messages. "I was asked if I want to have sex. That wasn't all that surprising to me, so I asked what the chat rules were, something I'm used to from my escort work in Second Life." A number of players told her that it's a lot more about the "animations" than long sensual descriptions of intimate moments, as is the case in Second Life.

Through their advances, the players suggested the simulation of sex with the help of a number of different dance, battle, or spell animations. "I found it rather banal and I politely refused. I then left the tavern, but soon realized that a group of them was following me." This led to what Klara describes as a disturbing scene: "A female human really wanted to 69 with me as a few paladins watch and simulate ejaculation through spells that emit white light." Klara responded with a very clear "no!", to which the players responded by surrounding her and harassing her further.

Don't let Vice find out about the Korean MMO Imports or Katawa shoujo

So, if I am understanding this correctly from the other sources I read, this reporter basically went into a server that was notoriously known for 1) Trolling and 2) anything goes roleplaying so, this is not as much of a big problem with WOW so much as it is a particular servers problem, but that never stopped a reporter from misrepresenting reality, amirite?

Well see Gamergate told us this journalist was sexting the second ife Escort and she complained to him so he wrote an article to defend her.

( I don't play WoW so I have no idea but the article says because people don't go to inns for dungeon party forming Inns are full of Roleplayers and this one inn is popular with anything goes roleplayers)

Well there's the context that I didn't know, that makes it even funnier. Secondlife has a terrible habit of showing up whenever someone talks about internet degeneracy, its really impressive. Like a more awful form of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon

I don't play WoW either but other comments made suggest this isn't widespread problem, just 2 specifically fucked servers.

I only know about Secondlife because of my hands down favorite "gaming news story" during the election

by a schoolgirl avatar that his group wanted to do “something political in Second Life for the election.”

Oh dear, they should’ve took a look back 10 years and realize that there’s no reclaiming SecondLife, it’s a griefers paradise.

he asked for a pause while he contacted "my personal mafia."

Thanks for the link rofl

Omfg I forgot about Esteban. It’s so perfectly juxtaposed the awkwardness of the interactions with the rage of the nerds being annoyed. 10/10

Holy shit

Someone actually took the time to write this article without a hint of irony. Someone needs to neck themselves, promptly!

Scarring children for life sounds fun.

the only potentially redeeming factor of online gaming whatsoever tbh

oh my god is vice even real
