Your Views

So in this section of my blog I will choose some of my favourite comments of previous weeks/month. Some of them I chose because of the person’s view (not whether or not I agree with it) or just because it made me laugh.

I created two polls a month or so ago after the Winter LE 2011 Collection was released. Here were the results.

“me” on My Five Years on Stardoll.

“I wanted to comment on your mention of the ‘Stardoll is for young kids’ school of thought. Stardoll markets solely to kids, to its detriment. I am in my 20′s and I’ve always enjoyed gaming (Pokemon, Littlebigplanet, Fable, The Sims etc). My favourite elements of these games are collecting items and creative/design features ( I’m a set designer). There aren’t that many games that do this well, but Stardoll does! The gameplay involves a legitimate design process (which can appeal to a wide range of people). Unfortunately as it is I feel like stardoll is my guilty pleasure, and I generally don’t tell others that I play it- meanwhile my adult male friends are openly playing games on a frequent basis. If Stardoll was less pink, perky and if it marketed itself universally I think it would have a much bigger audience and might have a bit more ‘credibility’ for teen and adult users. This ‘think pink’ marketing is an issue with a lot of female products. Ladies, don’t tell yourself that you are expected to ‘grow out of it’ by a certain age, because you might not, and that’s fine. Don’t tell yourself it isn’t ‘cool’- the product of your creations (and the people you meet) can be very very cool. Don’t deactivate your account at 14, by 20 you could be kicking yourself and your clothes should be pretty rare by then!”

“As human beings, we all have the right to want something. Even if it’s unrealistic. And stardoll “fame” just happends to be one of those things (for people who play stardoll, of course). Sure who doesn’t love being noticed or praised, I sure do, but, people tend to take it over the top. It’s like once you get that first job, you’re going to want to get promoted, which means more money. And the more money you have, you’re going to want more and more. Also about people who want “fame” not having a life, that’s not necessarily true. They just have too much time on their hands and got sucked in into the whole stardoll elite thing. Like I said we all like to be noticed and praised, but some just take it over the top. Some people (like me) have no facination with being popular on a game, but some, just find the idea amazing, since they probably aren’t very popular in real life.”

“RICE! 
Rice is like my favorite thing in the world… Next to kraft mac and cheese. I’m gonna ask my mom about chinese food for dinner so I can get some fried rice. “

Surrender to the power of rice!

“Tone though text can be conveyed very well if people bother to use the correct grammar and punctuation according to the context. If people make sentences with no emotive language, it becomes harder to interpret the way is should be and can instead be perceived as a rude or harsh comment. Emoticons help too >3<”
