I'm glad you remember your training. I double majored in computer science and psychology and currently in grad school doing experimental work with machine learning and in particular natural language processing. Since MMORPGs model human interacts surprisingly well I actually use log files from these games in some of my research to collect data to analyze.

That aside and on a less computational level, I've always been fascinated with this concept of trolling and how people carry themselves on the internet. It's interesting to see how people interpret hostility or threat to status in a virtual environment where the aggressor stimuli is entirely fictional. As technology plays an increasingly important roles in our social lives, mapping contrived stimuli to appropriate natural stimuli and triggering correct behavioral responses will be important in human-machine-human interactions.
I find it even more interesting how someone can misinterpret hostility and "threats to status". The ego is a fascinating thing.

I strongly doubt you're using any of this interchange for any form of research. I directly question the value of upsetting random people by casting aspersions on their social values and interactions.

However, if you are truly doing this for some cause other than your own entertainment, I look forward to the fruits of your labor in the form of a peer-reviewed journal. That said, you admitted several posts earlier that you are specifically doing this for entertainment:

These forums are merely excellent entertainment.
In light of this, what was the point of bringing up all of your "research?" Was it to inflate your social value in the eyes of others? Do you wish to "wear the crown" in the sandbox that is the P99 forum?

And you have the gall to say that we have complexes?

I look forward to your reasoned rebuttal.
