This is the research diary of researcher Lisbeth Klastrup, since february 2001 sharing her thoughts on life, universe, persistent online worlds, games, interactive stories and internet oddities with you on the www.

I am currently on leave from the IT University of Copenhagen, and from aug. 2006 - aug. 2007 working as Associate Research Professor at the Center for Design Research Copenhagen, an independant center situated at the School of Architecture. During this year, I will be working on a book about the development of aesthetics, design and interaction on the WWW, together with colleague Ida Engholm.

My blog often reflects how busy I am in general, so posting may be pretty irregular, as well as my potential response to comments. But I read them!

Scott Adams on EverQuest and role-playing (Adams, a game programmer, from UWEC English Festival, 2001 - an oral presentation - I've cut and pasted)

Here’s an example. First day I’m playing this character, I get into the world and there I am in my loin cloth and my wooden club and I said, 'I’m going to role play.' You can role-play or you can be an avatar. Role-playing means that I am a creature that really lives in this world. I’m acting

Somebody comes up to me and says, 'Hey man, what level are you?' And I say, "Excuse me young sir, I am a new apprentice and do not know what this level is that thou talks about."

"I said what level are you!!!"

"Please do not shout at me I am just a lowly apprentice and do not understand this strange talk."

Jumping up and down, "What level are you!!!"

By this time he has attracted a crowd around us, I don’t know why. So we have other players standing around looking at this guy jumping up and down, yelling at me, "He won’t tell me what level he is!!"

(Sniveling voice) "I am a lowly apprentice. Please sir, don’t hurt me."
