In addition, the study will compare the language found in World of Warcraft with language found on other parts of the Internet, especially chatgroups. Based on 1045 recorded chat messages, this study examines the use of abbreviations, emoticons, vocabulary, capitalization, spelling, multiple letter use and the use of rare characters. The results of the investigation show that the language of World of Warcraft differs from Standard English on several aspects, primarily in the use of abbreviations. This is supported by secondary sources. The results also show that the use of language is probably not based on the desire to deliver a message quickly, but rather to reach out to people. In addition, the results show that the language found in World of Warcraft is more advanced than a simple effort to try to imitate speech, thereby performing more than written speech.

SMITH has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Joseph W. Slade III Professor of Media Arts and Studies Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT SMITH, JEFFREY S., Ph.D., March 2010, Mass Communication Cyber-Synchronicity: The Concurrence of the Virtual and the Material Via Text-Based Virtual Reality (384 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Joseph W. Slade III This dissertation investigates the experiences of participants in a text-based virtual reality known as a Multi-User Domain, or MUD. Through in-depth electronic interviews, staff members and players of Aurealan Realms MUD were queried regarding the impact of their participation in the MUD on their perceived sense of self, community, and culture. Second, the interviews were subjected to a qualitative thematic analysis through which the nature of the participant’s phenomenological lived experience is explored with a specific eye toward any significant over or interconnection between each participant’s virtual and material experiences. An extended analysis of the experiences of respondents, combined with supporting material from other academic investigators, provides a map with which to chart the synchronous and synonymous relationship between a participant’s perceived sense of material identity, community, and culture, and her perceived sense of virtual identity, community, and culture.

  • GENDER SWAPPING on the INTERNET Amy S. Bruckman Presented at the Internet Society, San Fransisco, CA, August 1993
    GENDER SWAPPING ON THE INTERNET Amy S. Bruckman Presented at The Internet Society, San Fransisco, CA, August 1993. ABSTRACT In text-based virtual reality environments on the Internet called MUDs, it is possible to pretend to be the opposite gender. In these virtual worlds, the way gender structures basic human interaction is often noticed and reflected upon. This paper introduces MUDs, and then presents a community discussion about gender issues that MUDs inspired. Gender swapping is one example of ways in which network technology can impact not just work practice but also culture and values. I. GENDER SWAPPING ON THE INTERNET On the television show Saturday Night Live, a series of skits concerned a character named Pat, who has no apparent gender. The audience is tempted with the promise of clues. In one episode, Pat gets his or her hair cut. A sign in the salon says that men's haircuts are $7, and women's haircuts are $9. The audience waits in suspense: when Pat goes to pay, his or her true gender will be revealed. The humor of the series lies in the fact that those hopes are constantly foiled; in this instance, Pat leaves $10 and says to keep the change. Gender is so fundamental to human interactions, that the idea of a person without gender is absurd. The audience thinks that surely some clue must reveal Pat's gender, but none ever does. Many who have never seen Saturday Night Live know about Pat.(2) The character has become a kind of cultural icon. Pat's popularity is revealing.

On-line communication has traditionally been managed via electronic mail or news, which are neither real-time nor truly collaborative. Communication tools which let multiple parties work together in real-time have become widespread on the Internet in the last several years. In an effort to keep a physically disjoint systems staff working together effectively, we have explored the use of MUDs as communications tools. By allowing many people to interact in an extensible environment, MUDs have solved many of the problems that we had with on-line communication, and provided many unexpected benefits as well.

  • Gramma -- Alison Mcmahan: Verbal-Visual-Virtual: a Muddy History
    Gramma -- Alison McMahan: Verbal-Visual-Virtual: A MUDdy History http://genesis.ee.auth.gr/dimakis/Gramma/7/03-Mcmahan.htm Verbal-Visual-Virtual: A MUDdy History Alison McMahan In his book, The Rise of the Network Society, Manuel Castells approaches the idea of a networked society from an economic perspective. He claims that “Capitalism itself has undergone a process of profound restructuring”, a process that is still underway. “As a consequence of this general overhauling of the capitalist system…we have witnessed… the incorporation of valuable segments of economies throughout the world into an interdependent system working as a unit in real time… a new communication system, increasingly speaking a universal, digital language” (Castells 1). Castells points out that this new communications system and the concomitant social structure has its effects on how identity is defined. The more networked we are, the more priority we attach to our sense of individual identity; “societies are increasingly structured around a bipolar opposition between the Net and the Self ” (3). He defines networks as follows: A network is a set of interconnected nodes. A node is the point at which a curve intersects itself. What a node is, concretely speaking, depends on the kind of concrete networks of which we speak. Networks are open structures, able to expand without limits, integrating new nodes as long as they are able to communicate within the network…. A network-based social structure is a highly dynamic, open system, susceptible to innovating without threatening its balance. [The goal of the network society is] the supersession of space and the annihilation of time.

THELIN A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Communication, Information and Library Studies Written under the direction of Dr. John V. Pavlik And approved by _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Utilizing Content Analysis on TheKnot.com to Study an Online Wedding Planning Community for New Jersey by ALYSON H. THELIN Dissertation Director: Dr. John V. Pavlik As with other aspects of our culture today, wedding planning is increasingly discussed and implemented online. Information is disseminated through online media attention, advertising, and computer mediated communication. The latter provides an avenue through which the impact of community building and relational culture can be established. My dissertation analyzes an online wedding planning forum on TheKnot.com to exemplify the ways by which a community is built through online postings and discusses the characteristics of this community. Utilizing the uses and gratification theory, content gratifications are examined through the types of topics publically viewable on an active online wedding planning Website. Because of the extensive reach of such forums, one particular region, New Jersey, will be examined. Process gratifications will be discussed as participants share personal experiences from their time spent on this particular online bulletin board planning their wedding celebration. Furthermore, the dynamics of interaction among this group will be analyzed over the course of half a calendar year and will show the types of interaction taking place through content analysis.

This paper discusses the MUD phenomenon, explains why the author thinks the game has educational potential, and presents a summary of the research which was done in the creation of this prototype of an informational MUD. 2 Introduction During my undergraduate career I became one of many students who are hopelessly addicted to playing a type of Internet-based computer game known as a MUD, or Multi­ User Domain. I began to see a potential in these games for educational use; the design of the games and their attraction for students seemed to make them ideal tools for education.

  • 7 Multi-Player Online Role-Playing Games
    7 Multi-Player Online Role-Playing Games Mark Chen; Riley Leary; Jon Peterson; David Simkins This chapter describes multiplayer online role-playing games (MORPGs) where players participate through networked connections to collectively build a narrative or experience with a game that persists independent of who is logged in. We discuss two main traditions of these games (see Chapter 8 for an emerging tradition): 1. Multi-User Dungeons (MUDs), and 2. Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs). MUDs and MMORPGs generally allow for a “massive” amount of players—sometimes hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of players who simultaneously engage in the same game. Most MUDs and MMORPGs feature worlds where players log in at any time to visit, providing players with a persistent world independent of who is logged in. A variety of agents are at play shaping the multiplayer online RPG form. Creators have introduced novel game systems or narratives while dealing with the affordances of what everyone agrees is an RPG, but creators are also constrained by the technologies of their time rather than inherent limitations in RPGs. There also exists a parallel history in non-digital RPGs and computer role-playing games (CRPGs) that influence the online games. Thus the evolution of MORPGs is not channeled through just one tradition. Thankfully, first-hand accounts of the history of the multiplayer online RPG industry (Bartle, 2010) and first-hand accounts of design and management decisions for specific games (e.g. Morningstar & Farmer, 1991; Curtis, 1996; Mulligan & Patrovsky, 2003) exist. One thing these accounts lack is scrutiny from scholars across multiple disciplines, studying specific player phenomena in online gaming, so this chapter complements the historical timeline with notable scholarly research on player behavior and community engagement.
