Can such thing as a "utopia" be achieved?

There is tales of utopia's across the land, especially Atlantis. But can there be a utopia of no war, corruption, and sins be achieved in this world we live in?
I'm just wondering if something like that can be achieved in life by one person,
But how will the rules of peace be enforced, with brute force?
What I think is that a utopia can never come in this time of the year,
Main reasons are our wars today, people are dying still, and we cannot stop it by making everything an "Utopia"
Do you think there can be an "Utopia" in the world, even though the last one was Atlantis?



None.

Relatively ancient and inactive

Several questions: Why is no corruption required for a Utopia? Why are Christian-specific 'sins' required to be nonexistent for a Utopia? What, more specifically, do you mean by Utopia? A world without pain or something ridiculous like that?

Impossible. Or, possible. Make a machine that could plug in every human being on the Earth. Their minds would be transferred, and their bodies would die off. They would feel eternal happiness inside their virtual matrix. They will be the god of their own little universe. They could do anything they want. It's not necessarily a society. But it's still a utopia for the individual. This is tantamount to having infinite amount of resources, because for every mind, a super computer is required. There's no such resource within our grasp.

In the end, Utopia is just a lame fantasy made by philosophers that in turn caused the greatest wars on Earth. As long as Humans are present, then wars will be present.

The only way it could be possible is if all the "laws" people would have to follow would do so on their own terms. It would take a large group of uncorrupted and kind hearted people to make this possible. What are the chances of that happening even with a group of people like such? Very unlikely, someone will break the rules somewhere down the road of the utopia.

Everyone has a different definition of perfect, so Nowhere* cannot exist.

Of course, unless everyone was somehow preconditioned to believe the exact same thing, and behave the exact same way.

*utopia-- n. not a place, nowhere.

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.

not the map, the editor

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
