  1. Re:Users' own servers? on World of Queuecraft · · Score: 1

    Won't work with a game as drama filled as WoW. People who run their servers who also play the game would mean GM corruption and bias. May work well for FPS games where the world is not as continuous, but with MMORPGs in general, having the managing staff/server admins that play the game as well is a bad idea.

  2. Re:How you come up "cured" in a test? on Man Cures Himself of HIV? · · Score: 1

    Not a biology geek but i'll take a stab at it - Antibodies don't disappear over time, that is why vaccines (i.e. polio) work, they introduce a dead version of the virus into your system, and your body builds up antibodies for it so that if you ever come into contact with the live virus your body is ready for it. This doesn't work for HIV because it is a highly mutatious virus that changes very often within the body, so even if you're 'ready' for one type of HIV, there are a lot more out there that you're more likely to get. I'm not sure if there is an 'undetectable' HIV, but it seems unlikely, as if he has the virus then he would show the symptoms too - such as the severely reduced lymphocyte counts.
