Of course humans will place more value on Status within a game vs fake 'money' won in a game. In GTA3, noone gave a shit how much money they accumulated because they couldn't spend it, but it was cool to achieve all the accomplishments.

What a waste of research money.

so you're saying that status inside a game is real but money inside a game is fake

therefore,

but if you kill the hookers after sex then you get your money back... win/win for your brain.

Yes. A simple list of names with an associated higherarky creates status. That is as real as status gets.

Monster Lance, You always have the most appropriate graphics. WTF!?

A more realistic theory will show dependence on a person's economic power. A person near the poverty level will place way more value on money vs status. As your spending power increases, so does your valuation of status over money.

There's your answer, now PAY ME!

remember when po folk was gettin killed over air jordans? status

remember when po folk started puttin rims on they broke ass cars? status

remember when po folk invested in the stock market? oh wait me neither perhaps because everyone is more interested in the perception of being rich than in putting in the work and becoming rich

^ Replace 'po folk' with 'gang bangers'.

Fixed.

This is awesome.

This is the first pornsite I've found in years that I'd actually advertise to swarmers. When you first load it up, it looks just like every crappy scam site out there, except that it's real. It's huge, it's updated constantly, there's no spam, no popups, and no bullshit -- and it's completely free. When you sign up through that link above and respond to the confirmation email, I make a bit of loose change.

See what other swarmers have to say about it. People love this place, so I feel fine about sending you there and am confident you will enjoy boners.
