MA Thesis: “Whimsical and fun and weird and interesting”: Prosocial community in minecraft.

A screenshot from within the game, Minecraft. There is a player avatar with pale skin, rainbow hair, and a silver vest. There are two signs visible. The one on the left says, "Be brave. Be kind. Be gentle." and the one on the right says "Try to understand people who are not like you."
