  virtual reality
  VR
  
     (VR)
  
     1. <application> Computer simulations that use 3D graphics and
     devices such as the data glove to allow the user to interact
     with the simulation.
  
     2. <games> A form of network interaction incorporating aspects
     of role-playing games, interactive theater, improvisational
     comedy, and "true confessions" magazines.  In a virtual
     reality forum (such as Usenet's news:alt.callahans
     newsgroup or the MUD experiments on Internet and
     elsewhere), interaction between the participants is written
     like a shared novel complete with scenery, "foreground
     characters" that may be personae utterly unlike the people who
     write them, and common "background characters" manipulable by
     all parties.  The one iron law is that you may not write
     irreversible changes to a character without the consent of the
     person who "owns" it, otherwise, anything goes.
  
     See bamf, cyberspace.
