Please be assured, I'm typically on the side of the ones posing this argument, but the way they propose it is so ignorant that it just makes me rage after so many times. I would write a huge wall of text with tons of good points and examples and analogies, all of that good stuff, but knowing basil it'll be smarter to cut to the chase, eh? If someone says "It's just pixels" you can easily say "It's just paper/it's just flesh/it's just leather/it's just metal". Simply put, it's a pretty dumbass argument to point out what something is made of to try to convince someone that it's worthless.

But it's just pixels. How can you compare 500k mesos to flesh?

I agree with you. " I just lost my 100 dollar bill!" who cares its just paper. " I just lost my left arm!" who cares its just skin " I just lost my transcript to go to an Ivy League College!" Who cares its just paper The whole "Its just" argument is dumb

Well, will pixels ever be useful in your life at all? You can't touch pixels anyway. Like I saw on another thread, someone bought some pixels that they wont be able to enjoy, unless they are on maplestory, for 346 dollars. You could by a chair YOU could sit on with that money, not nexons pixels. That is all have to say.

I only find it right to say that particular sentence is when there are maple BFs and GFs who have no idea what they look like IRL. Besides that, I'm with you.

Your transcript to an Ivy League College will help you net an amazing career. What will a Maple Story character do?
