| MMORPG Maintenance Developer Blues | | Sep 15, 2005 - 7979 read(s) | Greetings and suck me. I'm Jeff Woods, maintenance programmer for Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided. As a maintenance programmer it is my responsibility to manage existing code, write bug fixes, integrate new code while analyzing its impact on existing functionality and be the brunt of your jokes and flames on the forums. Suck me. I'm writing this Friday Feature because I'm about sick of your, the valued customer's, torrent of never ending sass-mouth and ill-informed crap. I repeat, suck me. Suck me long. Suck me hard. |

| | Be Cool Glamourizes Shylocking | | Aug 23, 2005 - 5281 read(s) | Recent cinema (rented, of course, unless at the Alamo Draft House) includes "Be Cool" starring Travolta. For entertainment value, it's about three star, but the style is four or five on the Hollywood zeitgeist scale.
One interesting point that continues to come up in the film is the role of shylock that Travolta's character portrays. Theater has done much to glamourize the role of loanshark and gangster, and this movie continues the tradition by making sure to liberally plant the word in every character's dialog available.
Don't get me wrong, it's a good word. It's a good movie, too. Proly a lot of rewatchability available there.
Of course, exposure to the word shylock also tends to present the concept of a "pound of flesh", something with even more cultural signifigance. |
| | Virtual Muggins in Lineage II | | Aug 23, 2005 - 5323 read(s) | A Chinese exchange student in Japan has been arrested for "virtual muggings". Apparently, the young man was using bots to go about systematically killing other players and selling anything that they might drop when they die.
Personally, I'm holding out for the first virtual money laundering arrest.

| | Sony Assimilates Matrix Online | | Jun 24, 2005 - 4930 read(s) | In what appears to be a consolidating move to further build it's Station Exchange offering, Sony will be purchasing the MxO franchise and (according to OGaming.com) giving the axe to all but 26 people, including event staff.
Apparently, Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) cannot sit still while an MMO franchise goes underquested.
