    from what I see of the game, the avatars don't even have legs.

      More importantly, or what's between 'em.

      I'm always still in trouble again

        So basically, rape isn't possible in the metaverse. Interesting. I guess I'm not interested in anything else she has to say, then, if she doesn't understand the basic meaning of common words.
        "If you believe, take the first step, it leads to Jesus Christ. If you don't believe, take the first step all the same, for you are bidden to take it. No one wants to know about your faith or unbelief, your orders are to perform the act of obedience on the spot. Then you will find yourself in the situation where faith becomes possible and where faith exists in the true sense of the word." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship

          Is this akin to that daft thing Zuckerberg came up with? Not the simulated rape but the whole metaverse thing? The Icelandic Tourist Board did a brilliant parody of Zuckerberg's little video.

            The metaverse is, at least arguably, the virtual world in which this incident occurred. Of course, she's making the false rape allegation on the more normative interwebz.
