The Prodigal Player
If your team be ambushed by an enemy, run not away. If your team be attacked by aliens, run not away. If your team be swarmed by zombies, run not away. If your team be annihilated by Nazis, run not away. If your teammate be in need of a revive, run not away. If your teammate be out of ammunition, run not away. If your alliance be attacked, hide not your armies. If your ally is outmatched, hide not your armies. If your enemy is near, hide not your armies. For I say to you, there is no place in the online realms nor the hearts of its residents for the coward. Rather should you aide your allies and face your enemies, for this is the only way to be respected and feared. As I have said, so it shall be.

Rather teach the new player so that he or she may grow. Again I say to you, judge not the new player, for with training, he or she may become a strong ally. In methods of design and combat, you shall teach the unskilled ally. From the ignorant child, command silence until he or she be able to speak in a manner that is acceptable to me rather than in a manner that is distressing to every being in possession of intelligence. Allow not behavior that is obnoxious or ignorant from the smallest of these, for obnoxious children become idiotic adults and ignorance breeds ignorance, which is not pleasing to me. Let them not write comments with stupidity, nor troll those in positions of power. These are signs of immaturity and poor parenting which are unpleasing to me. Rather, use discipline upon them, and enforce the simplest of rationalities and common decency. Obey these commands and worry not of your servers being overrun with stupidity, for I say it shall not be …show more content…
Of inside jokes, you may chat, but troll not. Of explicit subjects you may chat, but troll not. Of the illegal and the questionable you may chat, but troll not. For I say to you, he that trolls shall swiftly and painfully meet his end at the keyboard of another. Nor shall you create drama, for this is unpleasing to me. When speaking in a general chat, complain not of your relationship troubles, nor of your friendship failures, nor of your financial troubles, for others have joined the chat for the purpose of relaxation. Neither shall you boast of such matters, for such an action would surely demean others. Instead, keep such topics for your group chats, or merely mention and continue not unless engaged to continue in conversation by another unless he or she be known as a source of drama. When with friends in a chat of your game, heed not the principles of too much information, for they are contrary to humorous conversation and have no place among gamers. If another stays to partake in the inside jokes and group-specific humor of your inner circles, invite them into your association for they will invariably contribute to your conversations. Listen to my words, for with these, your chats may be of a nature that is acceptable to me. As I have said, it shall come to

    Peter and the Starcatcher is an exhilarating and adventurous story that tells the tale of the well known free-spirited boy, Peter Pan’s backstory. Peter and the Starcatcher is based on the 2004 novel written by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, which was fashioned into a play by Rick Elice. I had an exceptional experience of seeing the play on March 29, at 9:30, adapted by director, Kerry Bishop on the A.B Lucas Secondary School stage. This play certainly catches the whimsical and wonderful essence of the boy who never grew up and how he came to be. Starring Aidan Peters as Peter, Makayla Ashenden as Molly Astor, Michael Jenkinson as Black Stache and the entire A.B Lucas cast put together a humorous and heartwarming performance, leaving me on…

    Weeping in the Playtime of Others In reading Weeping in the Playtime of Others: America’s Incarcerated Children by Kenneth Wooden, I learned about the devastating, heartbreaking truths about how corrupt our juvenile legal system is. I knew there was probably some violence within the facilities, but I didn’t realize the extent of the torture and physical abuse the youth experienced within in the juvenile correctional facilities across America. I was shocked by the amount of youth that weren’t actually what we would consider criminals. These children were incarcerated because they were emotionally disturbed, mentally handicapped or because they ran away from home to escape a bad situation.…

    The juvenile justice system in the United States is stained with an immensely dark past. In 1976, Kenneth Wooden uncovered the atrocities that were occurring within America’s juvenile correctional system when he released Weeping in the Playtime of Others. In hopes of protecting children and initiating change in the juvenile justice system, Wooden addressed the lack of human rights and legal justice in juvenile issues, the origins of delinquency, the abuse and neglect within America’s juvenile institutions, political corruption and greed, and, finally, his recommendations for reform (1976). This report will first summarize Weeping in the Playtime of Others, and then present and defend my critical analysis of the text.…
