The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003):

virtual reality
 n.

    1. Computer simulations that use 3-D graphics and devices such as the
    Dataglove to allow the user to interact with the simulation. See 
    cyberspace.

    2. 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 alt.callahans
    newsgroup or the MUD experiments on Internet), 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, teledildonics.
