Online Community?

John C. Dvorak, an award winning columnist from PC Magazine, argues that all sites like MySpace are “artificial communities” which are filled with fakes and vandals, who are there to “stir up trouble”. He argues that up to 50% of the users on some of these community sites are fakes. Dvorak raises the question;

Is there any way to establish and maintain an online community with no fakes and vandals ruining it for everyone? Or is the problem just a reflection of society that we must live with?” - John C. Dvorak
