This is why we don't let the designers touch the code...

Raph Koster on CNN about griefing:

The internet can act as an amplifier for bad behavior; the increased reach can encourage griefers to perform to an audience. "In computer science there's this term -- an N² problem," explains Koster. "This is where, as you add more things to a system, each new thing interacts with all the existing things so that problems scale exponentially rather than lineally. Human behavior is a kind of N² problem."

You know, usually I wouldn't snark on stuff like this, but owning this domain name and all... It's kind of a requirement.

Don't we all wish humans were bubblesort hard?
