This is just further proof of my Drama Coefficient theory in action. I’d say a DCMA lawsuit is about 1 hectodrama worth.

Ok while at dinner tonight and talking about Goth scene drama, I made a connection to Cosplay scene drama that may have unlocked a new theory for looking at ‘drama’.
Coincidently, Pen’s show tonight helped me think more about this theory and validate it, so here goes:

I call it the Drama Coefficient (or the Drama Factor for those less likely to Coefficize).

In continuing research about the SLPenis escapade, I found what amounts to more than just She said, He said. I feel torn in the middle here (this isn’t a goatse joke). While I have an immense distaste for griefing of any sort (especially anything that enters real life), I do generally believe that not-taking-anything-seriously is a good way to approach the internet. Second Life is somewhat differentish in that people are making real money there, so I see a definitive line drawn muddily over there somewhere.

A person/group of people have been posting a series on SomethingAwful, in which they go on adventures within Second Life.  They actually had the coverage of the Room 101 penis invasion that we linked to previously.  They have made a video collection of some of their exploits on YouTube.
Warning: Some of the vids flagged ‘mature’ because of pixel boobies, so you’ll need to sign into your account (and of course be LEGAL) to see some of them.
