Community

What does it take to make a community. Well to me a community is just a bunch of people that share a common interest. Online communities exist in forums and even in the blogs we created for this class. For instance I post my thoughts on my blog and whoever reads it comments one it. The next person that reads it will also comment or reply to the previous comment. This creates a community of people that share the same interest and want to voice their opinion. Communities also exist in online video games (mmorpg) where people all over the world are able to come together and interact. Alot of games these days have small communities in the game. For instance people would join groups for a common purpose such as completing a quest or attacking rival groups. I myself have never really played games like this because I don't have fifteen dollars a month to waste on a game but I have seen my friends play. What makes this more like a community is that players are able to use team speak to talk to other players through a microphone.
