I'm kind of a gamer, moreso when I was little. I went from video games to card games. But Hive reminds me of a game called Everquest. It was the first ever mmorpg.

We do not have some AI or 3rd party molding our perception of community. The communities here are raw and real. It feels like we have come full circle. We use to be a peer to peer when communicating. Before long algos turned that on it's head. And now we are past algos back to peer to peer. Thanks for all the advice on parenting, it will come in handy.
