What Jolene thinks

Personally I feel that one should not be addicted to 3D online games as it leads to many pitfalls once you’re hooked on it. There should be a limit on how much we can play these games.

Online 3D games help us to immerse ourselves into the virtual world to escape from the stress of our daily workload. Otherwise how do you explain the number of gamers all around the world? Friendships have been forged online and I dare say that I've made a few good buddies just through these online games!

I myself admit that I've hacked into people's accounts in the past when I was in secondary school (oops! =x) just for the fun of it or to bring the downfall of that particular player. But I've learned that it is a childish thing to do and have since stopped doing so. I think that we all should play fairly in order to enjoy the game to the fullest, else it defeats the purpose of playing.

Another point is that one should draw the limit on how much they should immerse themselves into the game. When you see signs that you’re becoming addicted to the game, stop yourself before you sink in any further.

No matter how much laws we set for 3D online games, there are bound to be people breaking the laws, so it all boils down to each individual to determine for themselves if what they are doing is actually morally right, or the mindset that “so long as I don’t break the law” is more than enough. Do we compromise on our moral values just because “the law did not say we cannot do this”? I believe moral values are worth more than that. Thus, I would like to conclude with this phrase; "PLAY FAIRLY PEOPLE!"
