Mo learns that objects in this brave new world are all too often... bind-on-pickup.

It's not exactly a drastic reach to say that people shouldn't cheat when playing an online game.

Give another human being a creative tool with the instruction to make anything, and odds are that first creation is going to be some variety of dong. It's just human nature.
