Personal Ethics

Everyone has their own personal code of ethics.  Rarely do two people have the same code, the same ideas about morality.  That's fine - indeed, it's a good thing for diversity in our communities.  The problem comes when people judge others because their code of ethics is different.  Just because someone believes something you don't, or has different ideas about morality, doesn't make them a bad person.  As I read somewhere, "Don't judge me because I sin differently than you."

Online Gaming

Online gaming is not bad in and of itself.  The social interactions that take place can be very beneficial for some people.  As in the gaming article by Knutson and Oswald, they mention that a teenage boy who may be socially awkward at school can find acceptance and importance in an online community.  However, MMORPGs do lend themselves to addiction and overplaying.  The key is to know yourself, and avoid activities that you would become addicted to.  I have never played, and will never play, an MMORPG for this very reason.
