Living out your darkest desires?

It's not often that I come to the defence of EU, but I will defend it against ignorance. I read an article in the Dailymail, a British daily paper, about the evils of virtual worlds where you can live out your darkest desires, including have virtual sex! I had to laugh when I read it, it showed the author's complete ignorance of what is is to play EU. One of the refreshing things about EU, is that there really isn't a sordid side to it, in that respect it differs greatly from Second Life.

Anyway, apparently the author had spent some time in EU, although I find this hard to believe. He lumped it in with SL and Habbo Hotel. He truly showed no understanding of what it is to be an active participant in EU, to forge friendships, to be a part of a great community and a exciting developing dynamic virtual world.
