Oh, this is easy to explain. Real life and Everquest are different because you can opt in to Everquest, but you cannot opt in to real life. When you play Everquest, you agree to play by the game mechanics and rules created by the developers. If you don't like it, play another game.

In real life you can't do that. You are forced to play real life. You have to deal with whatever situation you have in life, which means you do need to worry about things like reputation, intent, etc.

People play video games because they can escape reality, not because they want to do the same exact thing they were doing in real life.
I say it's a dick move, you say it isn't. It's my opinion vs yours. The rules don't matter. I can still have an opinion despite the fact that I opted into this game.

Your opinion is that people play video games because they can escape reality, but I also feel that a lot of people are playing video games because they are fulfilling what they are not getting in reality(friends/improvements/etc.). I can keep going with this.

I'm not sure why you're so obsessed with presenting a "factual" argument in controversial matters that do not necessarily have a right/wrong answer, it's not helping anyone.
