I have read in one of the blogs that a skill called “heal” exists in almost all MMORPGs. This very useful ability can be in different classes and various purposes;it can be dedicated to heal one’s self,another player in the game or a team mate.

Heal skill can be classified into many types but the writer said that the best heal ability that he has ever encountered cannot be found anywhere and in any game.

Even with the massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs),these kids are given the chance to be an adult in the virtual world.

Question is, are they also being taught on the responsibilities accorded with such adult tasks like getting married and having a divorce? Do the game developers seek to show these kids the immense impact of doing an act make on their virtual reality as it would in real life?

They are married, widowed, divorced – all before they are even old enough to get a provisional driver’s licence.

Teen gamers at MapleStory, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), get hitched at the rate of a couple a day in a range of weddings that cost between $30 and $40.

 Topics have been popping up across the broad range of gaming sites that convey importance, meaning and food-for-thought rationalizations that ? dare I say ? even important political minds seem to forego. So what topic is rearing its head up and over the hedges, today? Same-sex marriage in video games.

Even though she’s never played the game, 28 year-old Jocelyn is one of the fallen. A well-spoken California resident, she divorced her husband of six years after he developed a crippling addiction to the smash online RPG.

“He would get home from work at 6:00, start playing at 6:30, and he’d play until three a.m. Weekends were worse — it was from morning straight through until the middle of the night,” she told Yahoo! Games in an interview. “It took away all of our time that we spent together. I ceased to exist in his life.”

Jocelyn had been friends with her ex-husband Peter since the age of 13, but it took only nine months for her marriage to collapse.

“I bought the game for him for Christmas 2004, when it first came out. By May we had our first serious discussion about where our marriage was going, and by September I had moved out,” she said.

Jocelyn recalled one particular incident that was typical of Peter’s habits. “I had set aside 30 minutes for us to watch a television show together, and he couldn’t. He was stuck on a raid, and completely failed to understand why I was upset,” she said.

Peter’s domestic duties also suffered. He stopped paying bills, she says, and refused to do his share of the housework.

Jocelyn doesn’t hesitate to cite Warcraft as the main reason for her divorce and remains emotional about its impact on her marriage. “I’m real, and you’re giving me up for a fantasy land. You’re destroying your life, your six-year marriage, and you’re giving it up for something that isn’t even real.”

Despite their differences, the couple remains friends, and although Peter still plays World of Warcraft, Jocelyn says he made an effort to cut down after their split.

A gamer herself, Jocelyn briefly worked for World of Warcraft developer Blizzard Entertainment, although not on the title that proved so damaging to her relationship. “I recognized that this was a game that would never end, and that’s why I chose not to play it,” she said.

“They build it in such a way that you have to keep putting more and more time into it to maintain your status. I remember thinking when I was married that it was downright exploitative to people who couldn’t control themselves in that way. It’s set up like a drug.”

Asked if she would consider marrying another Warcraft player, Jocelyn laughed. “That’s actually one of my primary criteria now — I don’t want to marry someone who is a gamer.”

These are truly feasts to the eyes. As long as they do not step beyond the boundaries of phornography, let them flourish the game universe. Online game communities will always be vigilant when these things do come overboard. Nothing escapes the watchful eyes of our Gamers and for sure…anything that is OVER will be thrown overboard…

No big surprise: World of Warcraft takes the top spot. As for some of the other entries on this list, you may have never even heard of them. That is, unless you’re six years old.

According to a report by analysts Screen Digest, MMOGs are still big money, and World of Warcraft is sitting at the top of the cash pile. In 2008, the MMOG market in Europe and North America grew by 22% and is estimated to keep on keeping on as gamers attempt to satisfy their unquenchable desire for phat lewts and tedious grinding

While WoW’s dominance is no surprise here, Screen Digest’s findings for the rest of the MMOG market revealed a number of surprising results. When gauging the most popular MMOGs, the analysts used revenue made from subscription fees as opposed to the commonly cited player/subscriber population numbers. So, even though most of us would imagine games like EverQuest II and Age of Conan as virtual ghost towns, apparently they’re still turning enough of a profit to make it into the top ten most money making MMOGs.
