PC Format - Online Community

Post by Rajiv »

I have a project to do - part of it is on the anatomy of the online community - I need to mention examples and add my own opinion. Any advice on what I should say and is it OK if I take PC Format as an example?

Staff(head)
Administrators(right arm)
Moderators (left arm)
Users(heart and body)
Trolls(lower body)
Rebecca Black Haters ( Smelly Feet)

Then divide the users into groups of Gamers, Tech junkies, Graphics designers etc.

Then write how dangerouse forums are because someone elses opinion can vastly change your own opinion on something Eg. Star Wars Episode I was great untill I read all the haters saying stuff about Jar Jar, Jar Jar never bothered me until they pointed it out. Games work the same way.

I agree with the 'opinion' statement you made, thanks.

It's just some ideas. You should decide for yourself if you want to include them however mods and admin are necessary because it's too easy for arguments to arise on the net .

Why not, I am sure I could give you some humorous comments to put in it. Trust me they give you more marks if it contains a bit of humour

This online community actually extends far outside. AFAIK, this is fairly unusual. From what I have seen of the overseas communities, this is not the case over there, at all.

You left out a body part, semens....
The testicles.... :P

Anyone that looks up to you must be a small midget :D
"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.
