It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human all by yourself, and when you have this quality - Ubuntu - you are known for your generosity.

When you do well, it spreads out; it is for the whole of humanity.”

“Commentators frequently blame MMORPGs for an increasing sense of isolation modern life. But virtual worlds are less a cause of that isolation than a response to it.

It gives us back community, a feeling of competence, and a sense of being an important person whom people depend on.”
