Discussion avec un parrain sur EON

Discussion avec Seeker, un de mes parrains, pour acquérir le badge vert.

Le contenu de la discussion qui suit est dénué d'intérêt. Je la reproduis ici pour illustrer ce qu'il faut entendre par 'discussion' dans un MOO. Les formes de communication dans le MOO ont fait l'objet d'études. Par exemple l'apparition de signes 8) et :( pour traduire les aspects non-verbaux de la communication. Ces questions sont traitées dans un texte de Eva-Lise Carlstrom (Grinnel College) intitule The Communicative Implications of a Text-Only Virtual Environment .

the fields :)".

more commands...".

Lost Seeker pages: "oh, ok, I gotcha! I suggest coming back in a couple hours
and you have a better chance of finding more people. I don't even remember 
where the booth is to get green badge. :)"
