Basilers, i want to share this with you. (btw i decided to share it before the lady in the video told me so) A little info for you to know what you are going to click This person believes in "us" gamers. She seems to have a crazy and stupid idea but if you watch the video complete, you may be start to think its not that absurd after all. She actually thinks online games can change the world and we gamers are some kind of evolved kind of humans. REALLY. Maplestory is actually not the best example of this game-that-creates-evolved-human-beings, but despite of that i think we maplers have some of those qualities (probably a lot of you play other games aswell so yeah probably you are supahuman) I know a lot of you are still very young (some older), so I'm telling you this is something for you to reflect on, not just follow her words blindly, its important to analyse everything. If after, you go running to show it to your mom/etc/yourself to be able to feel OK spending too much time on maple/etc, then you missed her point totally. http://www.ted.com/talks/jane_mcgoni (separation because together the last name of the lady is "inappropiate" to basil forum LOL, Mr Basil dont bann me D: ! this is making this even more tedious, this rule is.... nvm. You have to paste it as it should) gal_gaming_can_make_a_better_world.html (the 20 mins are worth your time, its not even like 1/5 of the time you spend killing mushroooooms, and i suggest you to watch it all, the idea wouldnt be complete if not.) ps: title is stupid and maybe contradictory i kno, but i had to make it look weird/sensationalist so ppl clic it? ps2: i dont know if there are any writing errors, basilers can be grammar freaks. english is not my 1rst language. ps3. i kno this is long

I agree with about 55% of her idea, her idea is brilliant but it's just too wild. If it happens, imagine the future...
