Abstract from the paper

This paper discusses the social construction
of virtual assets in the context of Massively
Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games
(MMORPGs).
According to the first step of the SCOT
framework, five Relevant Social Groups
(RSGs)
are identified and thus the interpretive
flexibility of virtual assets
.
