Serious question, what's the protocol when you accidentally walk through a virtual person in a crowded VR concert?
Last weekend, I was at this massive VR concert in the Neon Nexus world, and it was packed shoulder to shoulder with avatars. The music was phenomenal, a live DJ set with visuals that made my head spin in the best way. I was trying to weave my way closer to the stage when my movement controls decided to have a mind of their own. Suddenly, I glitched right through the torso of a neon fox avatar, who immediately popped up a shocked emote above their head. I've been dipping into VR worlds for ages, but I've never had such a blatant breach of virtual personal space. It left me feeling weirdly embarrassed, like I'd committed a social faux pas in a place where the rules aren't even written down. The rest of the show was incredible, but that moment has been bugging me. So, for real, what do you do in that situation? Is there some unspoken apology dance, or do we just shrug and accept the jank as part of the charm?
