Okay, now to correct some more misinterpretations.

1. The basis of the conversation was about the implications of a reality in which these "virtual beings" are indeed conscious and created by physical people, not our own world or the infinite amount of worlds posed by the many worlds theory (or is it theorem?), or any other parallel world idea for that matter. Just the one world in which fictional beings have some form of consciousness similar to that of the physical ones and are created by the physical ones.

2. I do not arbitrarily apply rules to the scenario. How virtual beings go into a "coma-like state" (note: not an actual coma) was reached by a logical path I didn't get the time to explain, although it is a simple one. If a fictional character goes undeveloped, therefore not being able to act out any actions or technically exist, but is still alive then they will be in a state similar to that of a coma: alive but unable to do anything at all. In this case the "anything" is a bit more literal.

As I told you I didn't read the full piee of that link, so I may not get the full idea or know to what you actually refer. But if I'm right you are referring to how the fictional characters (and in fact the physical ones) are all forms of information in some form, even if that information isn't decipherable. As such it is possible that all things in the universe were a character. I refuted this as it was not neccessary for all things to be fictional characters just because all things are information in some form. Similar to how all dogs are animals, it doesn't mean all animals are dogs.

If you referred to something else then please tell me, as I can't remember what it is.

3. I refer you to number 1.

Although I did want more opinionated lines to go through I guess this is fine aswell.

Alright then, go ahead and start the attack! :P Right now it is supporting me, so I'm fine with it staying how it is. Although later I would also like to go through the propositions of things concerning responsibility over creations, the responsibility of actually creating and possibly some other stuff I think of along the way.



I'm glad the comments are working again, I tried less than 10 minutes after you posted and it wouldn't work.
