    Default Are online forums the oft sought after Utopia?

    Think about that question a minute. Here at the forums theirs almost no discrimination. Your viewed equally without regards to race, gender, or ethnic origin. We have a heirarchy government that works very well. We have a leader at the very top (Cid), politicians (Administrators), then the fun police (Moderators), and at the bottom the regular posters. Cid pretty much watches over everything and makes sure it goes smoothly. The politicians (Admins.) take care of the problems. If something is wrong we can write them and they fix it. The fun police (Mods) enforce the rules on the occasion that someone breaks them but that doesn't happen very often. Everyone seems to pretty much abide by the rules. The regular posters are us. Everyone here contributes to our society in their own way showing through their individual personalities. We all add something to the mix. Neat, huh?

    in definition, utopia doesnt even have a leader or anything like that i think.
    could be wrong.

    also

    Cid pretty much watches over everything and makes sure it goes smoothly.

    depends on your opinion of what a utopia would be.

    personally, I don't think EoFF is a utopia. It's nice, but 'tain't no utopia.

    Utopias aren't boring and filled with pointless threads.

    Utopias are boring anyhow. There's no videogames in Heaven, y'know.

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    I discriminate freely against people who post stupid things, people I disagree with strongly, and those whose spelling and/or grammar offend me.

    The staff, or your 'just government', have disagreed amongst themselves many times, resulting in spats, resignations, and 'breaks' from eoff.

    Everyone seems to pretty much abide by the rules, because if they don't, they get banned from this 'utopia'.

    If we were really viewed equally, there would be no flaming, no disagreements, and Yoshimi would not battle us pink robots.

    Your taking Utopia in the literal sense. Be loose with it and you'll see this place is at least closer than a lot of other places.

    Cid's Knights are like politicians. They get in the way. /joking
