 This class taught what collaboration really is. Through all the lessons, groups projects, and assignments, working with new people really brings in a perspective that collaboration is beneficial in solving problems. In class we really went through certain issues that are not openly talked about in society, going through topics such as toxic behavior in video games , as well as issues regarding reddit.

  Piracy may be illegal but that doesn't stop people from doing it anyways. There are torrent sites that are easily accessible over the internet to download the files that your want. Websites such as lime wire, frost wire, and the pirate bay are just a few that let you download files that people uploaded themselves. Accessibility is major factor for pirating. If a person believes that a certain something is far to expensive for them achieve then that individual may end up pirating it from one of the may sources online. Even if piracy is a big issue, its not going to be easy to get rid of. Back when the pirate bay was taken offline, a new site was brought up not soon long after, making it a know idea that new sites can just pop up and give users access to free downloads.

Communities Of Practice

In our reading about cultivating communities of practice it talks about how organizations do a better job at improving itself  if certain individuals meet up after business hours to share information about technology.

For instance getting ridiculed for not giving a good performance in a competitive match or not following the commands of other teammates can get you a nasty message sent to your inbox or getting called nasty names if the game supports voice chat. This puts other gamers in a predicament as they just want to play and don't care whether they win or lose. In the article we read in class "Can a video game company tame toxic behavior?" it uses the game league of legends as an example of the toxic environment in video games. Since league is the most popular game out there it has one of the worst gaming environments. The article also states how the company who made the game is trying to combat the toxic community. Riots way of improving the match quality is something at least, but most of the
