Im 34, my beautiful, wonderful, amazing girlfriend I met through myspace is 33, my myspace friends are all mid 20s to low 40s. Ive met and socialised with some, and romanced a few too and its all been pretty damn cool so far. Its been good for finding a partner, finding friends, and finding fuckbuddies and those ive met have interests similar to mine. Seeing all the myspace hate in this thread, perhaps having a pc/mac/net enthusiast, video game playing, star trek watching, sci fi & fantasy fan female friend/or more isn't the type of thing slashdot readers are looking for?
I just avoided the kiddies/teens/emo's with a simple age filter on searches and it actually turned out to be one of the better websites about for meeting new people.
So, if someone patents the concept of 2 players using avatars to fight each other no one can ever release a Streetfighter game again? (without paying royalties that is)
a patent of 2 people controlling a team of avatars playing a sport = no more sports er....i mean... "EA Games"?
A patent on a game controlling a vehicle driving round a track having a race destroys that genre too ?
